Organic Soap Berries (Soap Nuts) Natural Laundry Detergent 1kg
You are making a difference: Supporting the 'Grow Nepal' initiative which creates a future for the Nepalese people, and protecting the trees helps reduce deforestation in the Himalayas. Reducing pollution by using a raw plant product with almost no processing or packaging and that is fully compostable. Completely chemical free, grey water safe, septic safe. No plastic bottle - calico bag can be reused and nuts can be composted at the end of use. The shell is exceptionally high in 'saponin' which is nature's soap. This saponin content reduces the surface tension of the water so it will remove dirt and leave fabrics, soft and clean. Intructions for use: Place the equivalent of five whole shells in the small cotton bag provided. Add bag to normal washload and remove when finished. Use warmer water for heavily soiled loads (40-60 degrees). Re-use the same shells for approx. four more loads. When finished, shells are thin and brittle, at which point they can be added to your compost to break down naturally. You can also make a multi-purpose liquid by boiling the berries for 15 minutes, and use the liquid for anything, from shampoo to a cleaner. Features: Money saving. Soap berries cost around 10c per wash load for a 1kg bag. Compared to conventional washing powders, they can save you a great deal over the course of a year.
