Types and types of washing powders

The opinion that frequent washing harms things is wrong. In fact, poor-quality laundry detergent worsens the original appearance of new clothes. If you choose a washing powder wisely and find a safe and effective composition, you can load laundry into the washing machine without fear for its safety. Let's figure out what types of washing powders are preferable to use when washing, which brands you should focus on.

Automatic washing products

Today, housewives prefer to clean things in the SMA. That is why the demand for powders for automatic washing machines is extremely high. On average, about 50 grams of the mixture are consumed per washing cycle, so you have to purchase it with enviable consistency. We present to your attention the rating of the best washing powders for automatic washing machines.

Sarma Activ. Housewives often prefer this product, as it is suitable for cleaning things of any type. The main advantages of the powder:

• does not contain chlorine-containing substances;
• copes well with any stains;
• has an antibacterial effect on fabric;
• can be used for snow-white, black and colored linen;
• economical composition consumption;
• acceptable price;
• On the shelves you can find packages of various packaging.

According to some buyers, Sarma Activ also has some disadvantages:

• aggressive, containing surfactants, phosphates;
• may not remove stains when washed in cold water;
• does not rinse out perfectly from the material.

Ariel "Mountain Spring". The powder is included in the list of the best products that cope with heavy, deep stains from any type of fabric.The main advantages highlighted by housewives:

• works effectively in cold water;
• leaves a subtle, delicate aroma on clothes;
• removes stains from wine, blood, grass, cosmetics;
• It is used very sparingly.

There are also some disadvantages of the product:

• high price per package;
• powder components often cause allergic reactions;
• It is better not to use when washing children's clothes.

After reading user reviews, you can understand that Ariel “Mountain Spring” perfectly removes any stains and is ideal for washing with minimal water heating. However, due to the allergenic nature of the composition, it is better not to use it for cleaning children’s clothes, and for short washing with one rinse cycle.

Bimax 100 spots. Promising advertising says that the product will remove any dirt without effort. And this is true, the composition removes even specific stains: coffee blots, grass circles, juice stains, etc. Advantages of this brand of powder:

• low consumption;
• convenient container equipped with a clasp and a measuring cup;
• high quality cleaning.

Some users have noted that Bimax 100 stains do not dissolve well in cool water and are not removed from fabric fibers with a short rinse cycle. Having studied the reviews, we can say that housewives rarely use the powder for daily laundry; rather, they use a strong product to combat serious stains. The product is in the middle price range.

FroschColor from a German manufacturer can be an excellent alternative to standard laundry detergents. Household chemicals of this type are characterized by:

• hypoallergenic;
• concentrated formula composition;
• efficiency;
• high activity in cold water.

The composition does not cause clothing to fade and retains its original color. Also, after cleaning, there is no unpleasant odor on things. It is also worth noting several disadvantages that are significant for FroschColor users:

• does not cope with “old” pollution;
• the packaging is not very convenient in everyday life (cardboard, susceptible to moisture);
• the cost is quite high.

This type of detergent is perfect for cleaning the clothes of people prone to allergies, as well as small children. Users can be confident in the quality of the product. Washing powder carefully fights dirt without harming the health of family members.

For those who wash by hand

Selecting a powder composition for washing by hand is even more difficult than choosing a detergent for an automatic machine. Household chemicals must meet quality standards, not cause harm to health, not have a negative effect on sensitive skin of the hands, and can be rinsed well in a small volume of water. Having studied the reviews of housewives, we have formed a small rating of brands of hand washing powders.

Myth 2 in 1 for hand washing. Along with the low price, the high quality of the composition is noted. In addition, it is suitable for cleaning laundry in activator type machines. The consumption of the product is very small, which makes it even more profitable when purchasing.

The washing mixture easily copes with stains both in cold water and in hot water heated to 90 degrees, and retains its beneficial properties at all stages of washing. The components included in the composition are quite safe. However, in order to prevent hands from “drying out,” all actions with chemicals must be carried out with waterproof gloves.The undoubted advantages of Myth 2 in 1 are excellent solubility in water and rapid rinsing of fabric particles.

Persil "ExpertScanSystem". A new generation detergent that uses innovative ScanSystem technology to effectively deal with any stains. Along with the intelligent removal of dirt, the powder is gentle on clothes, preserving the color intensity of the fabrics. Also Persil "ExpertScanSystem":

• washes even in cool water;
• completely dissolves in a matter of seconds;
• rinses well from fabric fibers.

Although the powder composition is intended for hand washing, it is still better to avoid getting the product on the skin; you should clean the laundry with thick gloves. This will prevent possible irritation and dryness of the skin.

Persil "ExpertScanSystem" is considered a very effective means for washing any type of fabric by hand.

Pemos "Authority". Dry powder for hand washing is in the most affordable price category. This inexpensive product effectively removes stains and is also used for soaking things. The advantages include the cost-effectiveness of the composition, the virtual absence of odor on things after washing, and high quality cleaning even with “cold” washing.

However, users noted that Pemos “Authority” is poorly soluble in water. For the granules to completely disintegrate, you need to wait a couple of minutes. Also, the powder is not suitable for washing delicate items.

Tide 2 in 1 LenorTouch. The powerful composition allows the product to completely remove any stains from fabrics: coffee, blood, grass, cosmetics, oil, etc. The consumption of the product, thanks to the strong components, is much lower than that of powders of the same price category.Excellent washing results can be achieved by using only a small dose of Tide. The powder mixture does not deform the fabric fibers and retains the original structure, so after washing the items remain soft and pleasant to the touch.

The components of Tide 2 in 1 LenorTouch work perfectly even in water at 30-40°C, the granules quickly dissolve and are completely rinsed even with a standard washing program. However, it is better to avoid direct contact with the powder; when washing by hand, it is recommended to wear waterproof gloves. This will prevent the possibility of dermatitis, irritation, and allergies.

"Stork with silver." This dry washing powder is suitable even for washing baby clothes. It does not contain enzymes, optical brighteners, or dyes. But the composition includes useful components: linden extracts, string extracts and chamomile, which soften the fabric. Silver, marked as an additive, additionally disinfects things, providing an antibacterial effect.

The composition of the powder product is absolutely safe for the whole family.

Linen washed with Aistenok becomes immaculately clean, because the mixture copes with the heaviest stains. After cleaning, not a single stain will remain on the items; the powder is completely rinsed out of the fibers. It is recommended to use the detergent even for people who are prone to allergies to chemicals, since the composition of “Aistenka” is absolutely safe and hypoallergenic.

The best products for babies

I would also like to dwell on the types of washing powders whose manufacturers focus specifically on cleaning children’s clothes. The skin of babies is sensitive to any external influence, so you need to pay great attention to the choice of detergent. The composition of children's household chemicals should be harmless and not include harmful and aggressive components. Let's list the products that can be used to wash baby clothes.

MakoClean for children. A universal washing powder that can be used to clean baby clothes. The natural composition of the product makes it possible to use it for people with particularly sensitive skin, as well as those prone to allergies to household chemicals. Suitable for washing both synthetics and products made from natural fabrics: linen, cotton. Eliminates almost all organic and household pollution. The undeniable advantages of MakoClean.

1. Does not contain phosphates, surfactants, chlorine-containing particles, fragrances, or optical brighteners.
2. Thanks to the concentrated formula, it is used very economically.
3. The packaging of the product is made of biodegradable material.
4. Has all the necessary international quality certificates.
5. Works in cool water.

It is used both for automatic washing machines and for cleaning clothes manually. The only drawback that housewives could name was the high cost of packaging the product. However, despite it, MakoClean, today, is considered the best baby powder according to moms.

Tobbi Kids. A specialized powder used to clean clothes for newborns and older children. It is produced on the basis of laundry soap and also contains additional safe components. It is made in three forms, depending on the age of the baby and the nature of the pollution inherent in this period of growing up, the mother can choose the type of product that is more adapted to her child. The main advantages of Tobbi Kids:

• completely safe composition based on natural soap and soda;
• does not provoke allergic reactions in children;
• It costs quite a bit.

The washing powder is suitable for both loading into a machine and for hand washing. Housewives, in addition to the undeniable advantages, highlighted some disadvantages:

• may not remove old and difficult stains;
• takes a long time to dissolve in cool water.

Judging by the reviews, it is better to use the Tobbi Kids line when removing fresh, small stains. You can also use it to freshen your clothes every day. However, to remove stubborn stains, you should additionally purchase a more powerful product.

BurtiHygiene. A new generation of washing powder that washes fabrics efficiently, does not leave streaks on it, and has an antibacterial effect on products. Children need disinfection of things much more often than adults, so detergent can be actively used to clean baby clothes. The undoubted advantages of the children's product are:

• complete dissolution even in cold water;
• hypoallergenic composition;
• high quality whitening;
• wide application possibilities (can be used as a disinfectant additive when cleaning the washing machine tank and other household items).

The disadvantages of the product include the high price and the presence of flavorings. Also, it is better not to clean silk, nylon and cashmere items with BurtiHygiene. Otherwise, disinfectant washing powder will 100 percent cope with the task assigned to it.
