How to choose the most suitable detergent

Elegir el detergente adecuado Home Healthy Home

Take care of your clothes with our natural laundry soaps: a solution that respects health and the environment.

Natural fibers, synthetic fabrics, technical fabrics, lingerie, white or colored clothing. Each type of garment requires specific care to stay in perfect condition and extend its life. At Home Healthy Home we want to help you take care of your clothes while respecting your health and our environment. For this reason, we have formulated and developed several specific laundry soaps to cover all your needs.

Most industrial detergents usually include enzymes in their formulas that, in addition to being highly questionable for health, damage delicate clothing, dissolving color pigments. Another highly questioned ingredient is optical brighteners which, in addition to damaging the environment, will cause your clothes to lose their color and shine.

Synthetic or technical clothing will last longer if you wash it with a detergent that neutralizes bad odors and as for white textiles, you must wash them with a special detergent for white fabrics or else they will turn yellow or gray.

Are all our laundry detergents organic?

Yes they are. At Home Healthy Home , we rely on simple formulas and natural, effective ingredients. The world of home care has developed with often false promises and uncertain chemicals in plastic packaging. So we choose to go back to basics. To become a truly ecological alternative with a collection of totally natural, biodegradable, toxic-free products, without preservatives or dyes and in recyclable and reusable packaging.

We only work with Spanish factories and artisans who share our philosophy, trying to minimize the footprint we leave on the environment, both in the extraction of raw materials and in the entire manufacturing process. Our formulas are made to be understood, they are simple, short and well studied. Nature is always that simple but at the same time, extraordinarily effective.

Thus, we formulate our laundry soaps for clothes:

  • Free of enzymes, bleach, zeolites, phosphates and harmful preservatives.
  • Formulated and manufactured in Spain.
  • With completely biodegradable natural ingredients. 
  • With vegetable surfactants.
  • Without petrochemical components.
  • Without parabens, without GMOs.
  • The virgin olive oil we use is organic, as well as the essential oils.
  • We use sugar surfactants, and no petroleum products.
  • We saponify cold to preserve the properties of the ingredients and save energy.
  • Our bottle is 100% recyclable glass and infinitely refillable thanks to our paper refills.
  • All liquid soaps are efficient from 30ºC.
By using natural ingredients, the color and texture of our liquid soaps may vary slightly depending on the batch or the temperature at which they are stored, but in no case do they lose their cleaning power.
