What are the benefits of enzymes in the Laundry Detergent powder?Updated 4 days ago

Enzymes break down stains and dirt on fabric. They work at lower temperatures, which can save energy and money, be more environmentally friendly, and allow for washing a wider variety of materials. Enzymes can also help clean delicate fabrics that might be damaged by hot water. 

While the enzymes in Branch Basics' laundry detergent are safe and rated a 2 on the EWG Skin Deep Database, if a person has known sensitivities to enzymes, or is just very cautious about using new products, then extra care should be taken. Make sure to not inhale any product dust when transferring  the powder from the bag to the washer, and wash small loads and or double rinse. 

If you want to avoid enzymes, our Branch Basics Concentrate Laundry Solution is a great alternative for our customers that have enzyme sensitivities.
