Biokleen Natural Laundry Detergent Liquid

This product was recommended by Lucia Jensen from WeLoans

Biokleeen Natural Laundry Detergent Liquid is a plant-based laundry detergent used in standard and high-efficiency washing machines. The eco-friendly ingredients used in the soap make it easy to clean and remove tough stains, odors, and grease on clothes without using artificial fragrances and dyes. In addition, the soap is ultra-concentrated to reduce the cost of packaging and energy.

Zero Waste Laundry Detergent

This product was recommended by Angie Ringler from Waste Free Products

As a redhead with sensitive skin, I developed this laundry soap to resolve my own skin irritations from store bought laundry detergents. I spent years formulating the liquid version. After several years of selling it, I realized the plastic bottle it was packaged in was still a problem, not for my skin, but for the environment. I spent the next few years reformulating my liquid laundry soap into a concentrated paste form so it could be sold plastic-free, requiring only a lightweight paperboard packaging, and easily shipped in an envelope. A few years ago, I started offering it packaged or package free on the website. Our repeat customers LOVE the package free option because they don’t need the instructions anymore, they already know how to dissolve and dispense it. We always recommend first time users order the packaged bar. Making the switch to natural is great for health reasons and having one that produces no plastic waste when it is empty is a huge bonus.

Happi.Earth Laundry Liquid

This product was recommended by Megan Moore from Photography-Lighting

Happi.Earth ticks all of the boxes when it comes to being friendly to the environment. First of all, their packaging is mostly made from paper, with only the nozzle made out of plastic. But what is even better is that after you have finished the packet (which will last you 400 washes), you can send it right back to the company without any fuss and they will refill it! This hugely reduces waste, and it is extremely efficient. The laundry soap is highly concentrated, which is why the packet will last so long. This does mean that it needs to be dissolved in a small amount of water before being added to your washing machine, but this is only a tiny bit of effort for saving you from spending money on new detergent every couple of weeks! The detergent only contains organic ingredients, and they all smell absolutely amazing – my clothes are smelling fresh even after a week of sitting in my wardrobe.
