Can I use my own cleaning bottles? What are the dilution ratios?Updated 2 months ago

Yes, you can use your own refillable bottles.

Visit Using Your Own Bottles For Branch Basics Concentrate for more, or scroll for dilution ratios. 

Dilution Ratios

Here are our suggestions for dilution ratios with our powerful Concentrate:

    • For an All-Purpose Cleaner - 1 part Branch Basics Concentrate to 11 parts water

    • For a Bathroom Cleaner - 1 part Branch Basics Concentrate to 5 parts water

    • For a Streak-Free Cleaner - 1 drop Branch Basics Concentrate to 24 oz. distilled water

    • For a Foaming Hand Wash - 1 part Branch Basics Concentrate to 4 parts water

    • For Laundry Soap - 1 part Branch Basics Concentrate to 2 parts water

*For laundry, you'll use about 1 tablespoon of the solution for a regular sized lightly soiled load. You'll need a little more for larger loads or heavily soiled loads of laundry.

You can think of "parts" as any form of measurement you'd like. I usually think of it in ounces, so if you had a 24 ounce bottle and wanted to create the all-purpose solution, you'd use 2 ounces of concentrate and 22 ounces of water. Our system isn't very fussy, so you don't have to worry about being exact.
