Under Your Sink all started with me trying to replicate a dishwasher tablet! I was fed up with the strong smells and the overall waste that comes with commercial dishwasher tablets.  Unlike traditional dish tablets, his simple mix cleans your dishes and  can also be used for a variety of other cleaning tasks.

What it is

My Dishwasher Powder is a simple, purpose-built blend of mineral salts designed to clean dishes effectively without fillers, synthetic fragrance, or unnecessary extras.

It works by breaking down food residue, lifting grease, and softening water so everything rinses away cleanly. There are no coatings, no plastics, and no single-use tablets. Just a powder that does the job it’s meant to do.

How to use it

Use this Dishwasher Powder the same way you would any standard dishwasher powder.

  • Add 1 teaspoon to the detergent compartment
  • For heavily soiled loads, add a little more as needed

More powder does not equal cleaner dishes.

For best results:

  • Use warm or hot wash cycles
  • Pair with a rinse aid solution if your dishwasher needs extra help with drying or spotting

This powder is concentrated and designed to be used sparingly. A small amount goes a long way, keeping things simple and cost effective.

Ingredients

This Dishwasher Powder is made from just two powerful ingredients, both available individually in the DIY Ingredients collection:

  • Washing Soda
  • Sodium Percarbonate

I created this mix for those who aren’t quite ready to go full DIY, but still want to experience the handmade goodness. It’s a great way to dip your toe in and see the benefits and hopefully, this helps more people see just how simple and effective green cleaning can be.

Packaging Details

Hi, I'm Analisa the order packer. I pack everything fresh to order, and you have two options for how it arrives:

1. Apothecary Jar: It’s a wide-mouth jar made from recycled glass with a tinted amber look (not pure amber, but still charming). The lid even fits roughly a tablespoon, so it’s handy for scooping. Looks good on the bench and keeps your percarbonate airtight and ready to go.

2. Earth Bag: A compostable option made from recycled paper with a plant-based inner lining. Great for transport and low waste, but not ideal for long-term storage. Just transfer it to a sealed container when it arrives - glass is best.

Whichever you choose, just keep it dry, sealed, and out of reach from little hands.

FAQ

Is it safe for all items?
Just like any dishwasher detergent it would recommend not using on aluminium and to ensure your items are dishwasher safe. Same with this!

Is this septic & greywater safe?
Its fine for septic tanks in terms of general cleaning, however do not use these products directly in the septic tank! I would be wary using on greywater as these are alkali ingredients and I can't say with certainty that it wont harm your plants or greenery.
