Efficient dishwashing with a clear conscience
These natural dishwashing tablets from Tierra Verde are created for you who want an efficient machine wash without putting unnecessary strain on the environment, your body or your kitchen utensils. Made with only six carefully selected plant- and mineral-based ingredients and without synthetic perfume, chlorine, enzymes or dyes, they are perfect for those of you who prioritize health and responsibility in everyday life.

What makes these dishwashing tubs special?

• Effective at +55 °C: Contains sodium percarbonate, which is activated at higher temperatures for optimal degreasing and cleaning.

Use

• Put a tablet in the dishwasher soap drawer.
• Handle only with dry hands.
• Use together with dishwasher salt and fabric softener for optimal effect.
• Achieve best results with programs above 55 °C.
• With short or cold programmes, some tablets cannot be completely dissolved – here, consider switching to Tierra Verde Washing gel, which works from 40 °C.

Frequently asked questions

The tablet does not dissolve – what do I do?
Set the dishwasher to a longer program with a higher temperature. Also check that the tablet option in the machine is working correctly.

The tablet crumbles – is it still good?
Yes! Tablets affected by moisture or transport damage may bend, but this does not affect the effect. Just pour the crumbs into the soap drawer.

Why plastic bucket?
Because cardboard requires plastic wrapping of each tablet. The recycled HDPE plastic container can be used again and again – and finally sorted for recycling. A practical and truly durable solution.

PUER - stain remover and bleach

Do you know Puer?

A really effective and versatile product.

Puer is an oxygen-based bleach and stain remover - which also degreases and disinfects.

This bag contains 1 kg.

What can you use puer for?

Puer can be used for so many different things in the household.

For example, use it as:

• Bleach when you wash white - add 1-2 tbsp. together with your detergent
• Soaking very dirty clothes (white and colourfast) - 1-2 tbsp. for 10 liters of water
• Cleaning the toilet - pour puer into the toilet together with boiling water and leave to work overnight. Then scrub clean with the toilet brush
• Cleaning drains - pour 1-2 tbsp. Puer down the drain (preferably with vinegar). It dissolves greasy deposits. Leave on for at least 15 minutes

Puer or sodium percarbonate is oxygen-enriched washing soda (sodium carbonate). When activated with hot water, oxygen is released and hydrogen peroxide is formed, which has a bleaching effect. The hydrogen atmosphere also has a disinfecting effect.

Puer breaks down into water and oxygen with a lot of fizz and foam, so it is completely biodegradable.

For Puer to work properly, it must be used with water with a temperature of at least 40 degrees. The powder does not dissolve or activate in cold water.

What is a Stasher Bag?

A Stasher Bag is a reusable and completely sealed silicone bag for storing your food, your toiletries and the like.

It is also brilliant for packed lunches.

A Stasher Bag can replace zip bags or the classic freezer bag and can be used thousands of times times.

Stasher Bags are made of pure platinum silicone, which is the absolute purest form of silicone. It is also called "liquid glass". You can safely store your food in it - including fatty and acidic ones.

Platinum-hardened silicone is primarily made of sand and oxygen. No fossil resources are therefore used in the production of Stasher Bags, nor resources that could otherwise be used for food production.

Stasher Bags can also withstand heating in the oven, microwave and sous vide pan.

The silicone bags are completely airtight when closed.

Also feel free to use Stasher Bags for freezing your food. The silicone bags are transparent and therefore give a good overview of the contents, while also saving a lot of space.

This Stasher Bag is a Sandwich version and measures 18 x 19 cm.

It can hold approx. 0.5 liters.

Stasher is an American B-Corp certified company. This certification means that good employee relations are maintained, the environment is treated properly and that the company is committed to society. Stasher's products are produced under responsible and good conditions in China, where Stasher himself makes sure to visit the factory to make sure that the conditions are as they should be.

How to use your Stasher Bag

As you have probably already discovered, Stasher Bags can be used for a great deal. Here are some tips for use in the oven, microwave, sous vide pot and freezer.

Stasher in the oven: Place your open bag on a baking tray and put it in the oven. We recommend heating at a maximum of 210 degrees. And leave the bag slightly open so that the steam can escape.Stasher in the microwave: Leave the bag open here too when you heat food in the microwave. If you are going to make popcorn, we recommend a Stasher Stand-up. It gives a little more space to pop.Stasher in Sous vide pot: Put the food in the bag and slowly lower it into the water. The heat causes the air to seep out of the bag and will create a vacuum around the food. Close the bag and make sure it is completely closed when it is in the water. Prepare as you normally would, but now completely without plastic.Stasher in the freezer: Use Stasher Bags to freeze your food. They are brilliant for leftovers from dinner or for wet food such as fruit or meat. Stasher Bags do not take up much space in the freezer and since they are transparent, they provide a good overview.

Tips for Stasher Bags

Write on your Stasher Bag with a whiteboard pen. It comes off easily in the wash

Your Stasher Bag may be discolored by certain foods (tomato and the like). A little smell can also be transferred if you have used your stasher bag for strong foods. Both parts can be remedied with a little baking soda and lemon.

If they get a little discolored over time, you can use vinegar and baking soda to remove them, and if that doesn't work, we have another tip up our sleeve as well.

If you have Stasher bags in Clear or lighter versions, the best way to remove discoloration is to actually let the sun do the work. If you leave your bags out in the sun for a few hours or 3, the UV rays will work to remove the discolouration.

Of course, that requires it to be out in the sky.

You can also remove food smells by putting your stasher bags in the oven at 175 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
Make sure they cool down again before handling them.

You can also soak them in hot water with a little vinegar and salt for an hour. It can also help.

And then the best tip is probably just to use it again and again and again :-)

Cleaning your Stasher Bag

Please put your Stasher bag in the dishwasher. It can easily withstand that.

Otherwise you can clean it by hand washing.

Stasher Bags are produced in China under proper conditions.

What can you use baking soda for?
Baking soda has two very special properties: it has a mild abrasive effect without scratching surfaces, and it effectively neutralizes odors.

Odds & Ends

Colorful home textiles – made from surplus materials from industry

When factories dye yarn for textile production, an extra stock is often made just in case – but much of this yarn ends up unused. Odds & Ends textiles are designed to make full use of these scraps and create endless, unexpected color combinations.

Collections & Colors

Odds & Ends collections are produced in batches. The factory collects surplus materials and uses these colors to create a new design, which is then put into production. The precise design is just the starting point – during production, some of the residual materials are used up and replaced with similar colors.

Therefore, the images you see are an indicative representation of how the textiles look, but there will be slight variations within each batch.

Colours may vary

As these textiles are produced in small batches from surplus materials, colors may vary. However, the general color palette is always preserved, so that textiles within the same color scale can be easily combined. The product you receive may be identical to or have slight variations compared to the images on this page. The duo set consists of one textile in primarily cold tones and one in primarily warm tones.

Washing and care instructions

All Odds & Ends textiles can be washed at 30°C in the washing machine's cotton program together with similar colours. To preserve the intensity of the colors, an organic detergent is recommended for colored washing.

To extend the life of the textiles, air drying is recommended, but terrycloth products such as soft towels – especially those with a velor surface – may benefit from an occasional tumble dryer on medium heat to soften the fibers without the use of chemical fabric softeners.

If you live in an area with chalky water, you can soften both your textiles and washing machine by adding citric acid or vinegar to the rinse cycle from time to time.

Loose Threads

This product is woven with terry loops to ensure a soft and absorbent quality. Newly woven terry loops can be more prone to loose threads, so be careful with jewelry when first worn.

If a thread should come loose, never pull it! Carefully cut it off with sharp scissors – this will prevent further loose threads and will not affect the woven structure of the textiles. After the first few washes, the fibers will become more resistant to snags.

What makes this washing-up gel special?

• Effective already from 40 °C
  Perfect for modern dishwashers and energy-saving programs.

• Natural and vegan ingredients
  Contains no animal substances and is based on plant extracts and minerals.

• Mild and clean scent
  Organic orange oil gives a natural and pleasant citrus scent without synthetic fragrances.

• Biodegradable and gentle on the environment
  The washing-up gel breaks down easily in nature and is certified with Ecogarantie – one of the most demanding environmental certifications in Europe.

• Without phosphates, enzymes or petrochemicals
  Safe for you, your dishes and your drains.

Use

1. Pour 25 ml (approx. ¾ cap) into the soap drawer.
2. For extra dirty dishes, you can use a full capful.
3. Add any 1 tablespoon of citric acid to remove limescale in the machine.
4. For optimal deodorization, you can add baking soda to the bottom of the machine.

Why is the dishwashing gel not made from 100% natural ingredients?
The gel currently contains a chelating agent that helps soften the water and remove other unwanted compounds. 85% of this substance is of natural origin and it is chemically modified to be as effective as possible.

The result is that in addition to Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions (the main compounds that cause water hardness) it can also remove Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Mn2+ and Zn2+ ions. These ions impair the appearance, taste, smell and color of the water (iron gives the water a rusty colour, manganese makes it brown or even black). The chelating agent is completely degradable and replaces a less effective EDDS agent.

What is the recommended water temperature?
If you use enzyme-free machine detergents - such as those from TIERRA VERDE - you must set the temperature to at least 40 °C.

The same principle applies to dishwashers and washing machines: We consider the environmental impact of raising the temperature to be significantly more acceptable than the impact by using synthetic and toxic agents. The financial cost of raising the temperature has been studied using a washing machine, where a temperature increase of 10°C increases the cost by 30 cents per load. wash.

Ingredients

• <15% soap nut extract
• Chelating agent (GLDA)
• Sodium citrate
• Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda)
• Sodium carbonate (washing soda)
• Glycerol
• Xanthan gum
• <5% non-ionic surfactants
• Organic orange oil (Citrus sinensis)
• D-limonene (naturally occurring in orange peel)

Resource awareness & health in focus
Tierra Verde consciously chooses ingredients and packaging that try to protect both health and the environment. The bottle is made from recyclable material, and the product does not contain microplastics, synthetic perfume, enzymes or petrochemicals.
