Materials & Care

The detergent's formula is based on plant-based raw materials such as coconut and olive oil, combined with nourishing ingredients like glycerin. This composition ensures that textiles are not only cleaned but also supported in their structure. At the same time, the formula is biodegradable and designed for gentle use.

Wool naturally has a certain self-cleaning ability, which is why frequent washing is not necessary. Often, it is sufficient to air out textiles, as odors reduce on their own. The detergent is designed to intervene only when truly necessary, without unnecessarily stressing the fibers.

Properties

The detergent is added directly into the detergent compartment and can be used for both machine washing and hand washing. A dosage of about 40 ml per wash cycle is sufficient to thoroughly clean textiles without damaging them. There is no need for additional fabric softener, as the formulation already provides a conditioning effect.

The formula is based on mild surfactants and vegetable oils, which dissolve dirt without attacking the delicate protein structure of wool fibers. This is complemented by ingredients such as glycerin and plant extracts, which keep the fibers supple and reduce felting.
