Ingredients and Materials

Ingredients: 100% Sodium carbonate (washing soda).
Form: Fine crystalline/ granular powder. Free from added fragrances or dyes. Purity suitable for household cleaning, laundry boosting and craft uses.

How to Use

Laundry: Add 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 g) to a regular wash to boost detergent performance. For very hard water or heavy soiling, use 2–4 tablespoons per load or pre-soak items in 2 tablespoons per litre of warm water.

General cleaning: Dissolve 2 tablespoons in 1 litre of warm water for a multi-surface cleaner. For stubborn grease or stains make a paste with a little water, apply, scrub gently and rinse thoroughly.

Drain maintenance / heavy duty: Use cautiously: do not mix with acids. Add dry powder to clog-prone areas followed by hot water for basic maintenance. For severe blockages consult a professional.

Soap-making and crafts: Used as an alkaliser in some formulations — follow recipe-specific safety and measurement instructions.

Who It’s For

Caution & Storage

Safety: Highly alkaline — can irritate skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of dust. Always wear gloves and eye protection for prolonged handling. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice if irritation persists. Do not ingest.

Compatibility: Do not mix with acids (vinegar) or strong oxidisers. Avoid combining directly with household bleach/strong acids to prevent hazardous reactions.

Storage: Keep the container tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture, children and pets. Store in original packaging or a labeled airtight container to prevent caking.
