This laundry soda is a minimalist powder concentrate that prioritizes a residue-free rinse, making it suitable for those with eczema or skin sensitivities. It is formulated to be biodegradable and is safe for high-efficiency (HE) machines. The packaging consists of a tin-plated steel container, which eliminates the need for plastic jugs.
Because the formula does not contain synthetic anti-caking agents, it is highly sensitive to humidity. Storing the tin in a damp laundry room can lead to the powder clumping or the tin seams rusting over time. To maintain the powder's flow, it is helpful to keep it in a climate-controlled area or ensure the friction-fit lid is tightly closed.
Specifications indicate that while this soda is excellent at emulsifying oils, it does not contain enzymes. For protein-based stains like blood or grass, a separate spot treatment may be necessary. The alkalinity of the soda is effective for most fabrics but should be used with caution on delicate natural fibers like silk or wool.
If you prefer the convenience of a pre-measured strip that won't clump in humid weather, Tru Earth Eco-Strips are a stable, liquid-free alternative.
