Hi folks,
Some of you might have seen already but Ecover have launched Bio and colour liquids (instead of just non bio). I've been wanting to test this for a while but only just got the chance. I've been using the non bio to wash black jeans as it has high surfactant count but no OBA's, so it works great on those. My only criticism of Ecover detergents is that they can often foam up a lot and be difficult to rinse out. Having just tried this on a load of darks, it doesn't foam up anywhere near as much as the concentrated non bio and it washes brilliantly. Very impressed. |

It's on offer again at the moment Ben - £6 for 42 washes. I'm currently using it alongside Splosh biological powder which is fab!
Paul, I agree about Ecover Laundry Bleach. It is essentially the same as all these oxy clean and vanish products, but it's cheaper, biodegradable and suitable for septic tanks. BioD do a similar product also that I actually find slightly better. It's pretty much the same product with the same results, but the packaging is a different shape and I find it easier to dispense. |

Hi Ben,
We went completely eco on all cleaning products and cosmetics about 2 years ago. However, I've still been using Persil Bio powder as I hadn't found an eco alternative that washed and rinsed as well...until now. I'm currently using Ecover Bio liquid for darks and Splosh powder for lights, whites and bedding. Splosh is quite an interesting concept. You buy a set of refillable bottles and then just order refill packs that are posted out free of charge. Their laundry detergents are super concentrated as all the bulking agents have been removed, so you only need a very small amount. The bottles for laundry liquid and powder are self-dosing too. The cotton fresh powder smells AMAZING! Have a nosey at this video. CLICK HERE TO GO TO AquaCycle's LINK |

Where do you buy Acdo washing powder from? I have tried ordering from their useless website but can't get to the payment stage. |
