Gall soap stain remover block

Gall soap stain remover block

Tierra Verde

TIV-11995


How to use gall soap
Wet the area with the stain, apply the soap and rub it in. The rubbing should be adapted to the material - a silk blouse is less tolerant than jeans. Leave on for approx. 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly or wash the entire garment. If the stain is not completely gone, repeat the process.

NOTE: Protein-containing stains (blood, dairy products) must be pre-treated in cold water before washing. Proteins coagulate in hot water and cannot then be removed.

There is a white coating on the soap - is it spoiled?
A possible white coating on the surface of the soap is harmless - it is sodium chloride (salt).

The soap looks different than usual - is it okay?
The color and scent can be affected by the raw materials used and the maturation time. However, these differences have no effect on the functionality of the product.

Liquid soap nut detergent - with orange oil - 1 litre

Tierra Verde

TIV-13302


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.

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.

Carbon rod - Kishu Binchotan - Mini

Kulvand

KUL-10009


Activated carbon is a form of carbon that undergoes a special activation process that makes it extremely porous. This significantly increases the surface area of ??the coal, making it very effective at absorbing various pollutants. Activated carbon can attract and bind to harmful chemicals, toxins and unwanted odors. It is widely used in water filtration systems and other healthcare products due to its ability to purify and improve water quality. Kishu Binchotan, a traditional Japanese form of activated charcoal, is specially designed to purify drinking water and add beneficial minerals. This makes it a natural choice for those who want cleaner and healthier water without using disposable plastic filters.

Benefits of Kishu Binchotan activated carbon

  1. Natural choice: Kishu Binchotan is a natural, recyclable product that lasts for several months and can then be recycled into the soil.
  2. Improved water quality: In addition to filtering water, the charcoal stick adds healthy minerals, which make the water both tasty and more beneficial for health.
  3. Easy to use: Put the charcoal stick in water and after a few hours you have clean drinking water. The stick can be used again and again.
  4. Natural filtration without chemicals: The carbon stick effectively removes impurities without adding chemicals or plastic waste.

This size has an average weight of 7-10 gr. and measures 10-12 cm. and 0.5-1 cm.

This carbon rod cleans 1/2 liter water of approx. 4 hoursand also fits perfectly into a drinking bottle.

When you receive your charcoal stick, do the following:

  • Rinse the charcoal thoroughly in water (without soap)
  • Put the activated charcoal in a pan of cold water, heat it up and boil for ten minutes. It cleans the charcoal and activates the cleaning processes.
  • Take the charcoal out of the pot and let it cool down
  • Put the charcoal in a jug or other container and pour water over it
  • After six hours the water is cleaned and ready for use
  • Refill as much as you want
  • Boil the charcoal rod approx. 1 time per month according to the above procedure. It will reactivate the charcoal and remove the substances that the charcoal has taken up. Write it down if necessary. in your calendar so you remember it.

The coal can last for at least 90 days - and often much more. You will be able to taste when you need to replace the charcoal.

The charcoal rods may break during the cooking process. It has no effect on the effect of the charcoal.

Once your activated charcoal has served its water purification purpose, you can use it as an air purifier. It is super effective for cleaning the air indoors and ensuring good air humidity.

You can also use it to remove odors from shoes, sports bags or the fridge.

When you can't find more uses for the charcoal stick, you can simply throw it in the compost bin or in the flower bed. It's super effective as fertilizer too :-)

Liquid detergent for washing wool - with lanolin - unscented - 1 litre

Liquid detergent for washing wool - with lanolin - unscented - 1 litre

Tierra Verde

TIV-12299


Give your woolen clothes the best possible care with this gentle and conscious detergent from Tierra Verde. Based on soap nuts and added natural lanolin, it has been developed to gently clean and at the same time rebuild the wool's natural properties – without harmful additives.

When you wash wool, the wool's natural lanolin is slowly washed out. Therefore, it is important to use a detergent that not only cleans, but also adds lanolin and helps preserve the wool's heat-insulating and water-repellent properties. This is precisely what makes Tierra Verde’s liquid detergent for wool absolutely ideal.

Natural soap power from soap nuts
This detergent is based on saponin – a natural, soap-like substance extracted from soapberry (Sapindus Mukorossi). When the soap berries come into contact with hot water (above 30 °C), the saponin is released, which dissolves dirt and removes impurities, just like conventional detergents – but without chemistry.

Use

  • Use 30 ml per wash (approx. 1 capful) for 4-5 kg ??of laundry
  • For very dirty clothes or hard water: increase the dose to up to 60 ml or add a capful of descaler
  • For white laundry, you can add a few spoonfuls of PUER bleach
  • For hand washing: Use approx. 15 ml for a washing tub
  • Use bile soap or a vegan stain remover block for stubborn stains
  • Avoid washing below 30 °C, as otherwise the saponin will not be optimally activated

Ingredients
5-15% non-ionic surfactant of vegetable origin
5-15% soap nut extract
Lanoline
Chelating agent (EDDS)
Sodium benzoate
Denatured alcohol
Xanthan gum

Environment and ethics:
Tierra Verde’s products are developed with respect for both people and the environment. This wool wash is free of synthetic perfumes, bleaches and unnecessary additives, and the packaging is made from recycled plastic.

And the duvet is especially suitable for those who find it difficult to keep warm at night, or find it difficult to get rid of the heat.

Kapok is also recommended for allergy sufferers, as kapok contains an antibacterial bitter substance that house dust mites cannot live in.

The duvet is filled with untreated organic kapok, with a spring of 100% organically certified cotton.

Please note that kapok duvets can feel different from ordinary down duvets. It is a little heavier and perhaps a little more like a cotton blanket.

BISTAD

BIS-000011


Leather care from BISTAD

Now there is an option for organic leather care with this delicious case from BISTAD.


This beautiful leather care is made from organic oils and completely pure beeswax from "Grøn Voks Pulje".

Grøn Voks Pulje is a designation for wax that comes from bee farms where neither pesticides nor antibiotics are used.

It is a leather wax that is suitable for most types of leather goods. It softens and protects your leather products.

This leather care comes in a small glass jar with a metal lid and contains 70 ml. leather care in the jar.

This product is handmade in Aarhus, i.a. of vulnerable citizens. Minor variations may therefore occur in the individual products. Labels etc. therefore do not always sit perfectly straight either. It has no effect on the product's quality.

BISTAD is a social economy company where there is room for "the weird", and we naturally support that at Økofamily.
