| ingredient | how it works |
|---|---|
|
alkyl polyglucoside
|
The top-secret cleaning ingredient inside our products? Believe it or not, it comes from plants. This plant-based cleaning agent is great at dissolving and removing dirt, oil and grease. |
|
boric acid
|
This natural mineral compound works to stabilize the natural cleaning enzymes that break down protein-based stains, such as grass, blood and chocolate. The result? Cleaner clothes done naturally. |
|
calcium chloride
|
This mineral-based ingredient stabilizes natural cleaning enzymes and prevents them from breaking down. |
|
colorant
|
Like any natural ingredient, natural dyes do have a shelf life. That’s why we add a very small amount of synthetic colorant (less than 0.1%) to our products for a bit of color. |
|
enzymes
|
Grass, food, blood? No problem! The natural soil remover in our laundry products attacks protein-and starch-based stains to get your clothes fresh and stain-free — naturally! |
|
fragrance with essential oils
|
Natural fragrances can go bad over time, which is why our products contain synthetic fragrances with oils extracted from plants that leave behind a clean, fresh scent. |
|
glycerine
|
This plant-based ingredient prevents streaking and ensures that our products are effective even when the temperature drops. |
|
oleic acid
|
This plant-based cleaning ingredient prevents excessive foaming, which is what makes our laundry detergent great for high-efficiency (HE) washing machines. Remember: just a little can go a long way! |
|
preservative
|
Like anything that’s natural, the natural cleaning ingredients in our products can go bad over time. That’s why we add a small amount of preservative (less than 0.5%) to keep our products fresh and effective. |
|
sodium gluconate
|
Because natural cleaning ingredients can degrade over time, we use this corn-based buffer to balance pH levels and prevent our stain-fighting ingredients from breaking down. |
|
sodium hydroxide
|
This mineral-based ingredient increases the pH levels in our products for improved cleaning performance. |
|
sodium lauryl sulfate
|
Derived from plants, this powerful cleaning ingredient works to dissolve and remove dirt, oil and grease. |
|
sodium octyl sulfate
|
This plant-based cleaning ingredient helps dissolve and remove dirt, oil and grease. |
