Origin and Properties of the Ingredients
This liquid detergent combines the cleaning power of soap, sugar surfactant, and fatty alcohol sulfate, all working together to enhance the washing process. The soap, derived from certified organic rapeseed and sunflower oil, is produced through a specialized saponification process without external heat. This soap helps to moisten, dissolve, and lift dirt from fabrics. The sugar surfactant and fatty alcohol sulfate, obtained from plant-based raw materials such as sugar, starch, and coconut oil, boost the soap's cleaning power and prevent the formation of calcium soap, which can deposit on laundry in hard water.

The vegetable alcohol, produced through the fermentation of plant starch, ensures the detergent remains liquid and highly concentrated. Sulphated castor oil, also known as turkey-red oil, is created by chemically reacting castor oil with sulfuric acid. It intensifies the detergent’s ability to dissolve fats, making it more effective in breaking down tough stains.
