Washing Soda

Washing Soda is sodium carbonate, a naturally occurring mineral salt and one of the most widely used alkaline ingredients in cleaning.

At around pH 11 in solution, it is considerably stronger than Bicarb and Borax. That alkalinity helps loosen fats and grease, lift dirt from surfaces and deal with the calcium and magnesium in hard water that can interfere with soap.

It is why you will find sodium carbonate in everything from laundry powders to dishwasher products and heavy-duty cleaners

✅ Multi-Purpose Cleaning Paste

Cuts through grease, softens hard water and helps soap work more effectively, giving you stronger results from fewer ingredients.

✅ In the Laundry

Forms the alkaline backbone of your DIY Laundry Powder, helping loosen dirt and grease while softening hard water so soap can work more effectively

✅ Dishwashing

Provides the alkalinity needed to tackle greasy food residue while helping manage the hard-water minerals that can interfere with cleaning

✅ Hard-Water Cleaning Booster

Use it where calcium and magnesium in hard water are getting in the way of soap and detergent performance

✅ Suitable for

• Most washable fabrics
• Ceramic and porcelain surfaces
• Grout and tiles
• Stainless steel
• Many hard household surfaces

❎ Avoid using on

• Delicate items like wool, silk and leather
• Non dishwasher safe items and aluminium
• Waxed or polished surfaces

✅ Melts grease at a molecular level

Dissolved fats, oils, and grease into water-soluble 'soap'. Save time scrubbing as the dirt simply wipes or rinses away.

✅ Spend less on specialised cleaners.

One ingredient can tackle laundry, kitchen and bathroom cleaning jobs.

✅ Fewer unnecessary ingredients at home.

One clearly labelled ingredient with no added fragrance, fillers or complicated cleaning blends.

✅ Longer-Lasting, Fresher Clothes

Neutralise the acidic compounds behind odours in fabrics by removing the source of the smell rather than masking it.

✅ Refill without the plastic pile-up.

Refill your reusable jar from a home-compostable Earth Bag instead of buying another plastic cleaning container.

✅ One powder. Plenty of jobs.

Keep one hard-working ingredient on hand instead of cupboards full of separate single-purpose products.

🫙 Storage

Store sealed in a cool, dry place to keep moisture out.

⚠️ Safety

Like all cleaning products, you need to keep stored well away from children and pets. This is not for food or any form of consumption, can be dangerous if consumed.
