Tierra Verde laundry detergent – a sensitive fabric softener
Give your laundry a natural and gentle finish with Tierra Verde's plant-based fabric softener. This unique formula is a healthy alternative to conventional fabric softener and developed with consideration for both the environment and delicate skin.
Why choose a natural fabric softener?
Most people associate fabric softener with soft and fragrant clothes – but what fewer people know is that traditional fabric softener is often based on synthetic perfumes, petrochemical ingredients and substances that can cause skin irritation and reduce the natural properties of textiles.
Tierra Verde's fabric softener works in a completely different way. With its naturally acidic pH level, it neutralizes the alkaline residues from detergents such as soap and washing soda.
It is especially important for:
- People with sensitive skin, allergies or eczema
- Small children and babies whose skin is much more sensitive
- Environmentally conscious consumers who want a chemical-free washing routine
The rinse aid helps prevent detergent residues and minerals from from hard water settles in the textile fibers. This means that the textiles retain their softness and colors, and that towels and tea towels absorb liquid optimally.
How to use this laundry cleaner
For machine washing:
Pour approx. 30 ml in the fabric softener container (for 4-5 kg ??laundry). The fabric softener is added automatically in the last rinse, where it neutralizes soap residues and makes the clothes wonderfully soft.
For hand washing:
After you have washed the clothes with detergent, dissolve 15-30 ml of fabric softener in clean water and leave the clothes in it for approx. 10 minutes. Then rinse as usual.
Do you have hard water?
When washing in hard water, fabric softener is particularly important, as minerals in the water bind to the detergents and form deposits in the fabric. Tierra Verde fabric softener counteracts this effect and ensures that the clothes remain soft and colourful.
Can the fabric softener change its appearance?
Yes, at low temperatures small white lumps can appear in the fabric softener – a bit like little clouds. This is because plant-based surfactants react to cold, but the product still works completely as it should. Place the bottle at room temperature and the lumps will disappear.
Ingredients (INCI):
- < 5% non-ionic surfactants
- Citric acid
Note: The product is enhanced with a sugar-based surfactant, which ensures optimal mixing and replaces previously used denatured alcohol.
