What's in Sensitive Laundry Liquid?
Tap each ingredient to see what it does.
Water
Acts as the main solvent, helping dissolve and distribute all ingredients evenly throughout the wash for consistent cleaning performance.
Potassium Citrate
A natural water softener and pH buffer that helps improve cleaning efficiency and maintain formula stability without irritation.
Phenoxyethanol and Caprylyl Glycol
A gentle preservative system that protects the product from microbial growth while being low-irritation and suitable for sensitive users.
Alcohols (C12-14) Ethoxylated
A biodegradable, plant-derived surfactant that effectively removes dirt and grease while remaining mild on fabrics and skin.
Sodium Formate
Acts as a stabiliser and water softener, helping enzymes perform efficiently and maintaining product freshness.
Phosphodiesterase
Helps break down tough organic residues and combat malodour. Also supports brighter whites and more vibrant colours by helping prevent greying over time.
Potassium Hydroxide
Used in small amounts to balance pH and activate fatty acids into mild cleaning agents (soap formation).
Oleic Acid
A fatty acid which helps remove oily stains and supports effective cleaning while being biodegradable and gentle on fabrics.
Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside and Lauryl Glucoside
Ultra-mild, sugar-based surfactants that enhance cleaning power and foam while being gentle on skin and fully biodegradable.
Methyl Cocoate
A coconut-derived cleaning agent that helps dissolve oily soils and contributes to softness in fabrics after washing.
Cellulase
Helps remove dulling residues and reduce pilling, while supporting softness and colour retention, especially on cotton and other plant-based fibres.
Lipase
Targets and breaks down oily and greasy stains for improved cleaning performance, even in cooler wash cycles.
Protease, Amylase, and Mannase
A broad enzyme blend that targets common stain types: proteins (like sweat and food), starches (like pasta and rice), and plant-based residues (like fruit and vegetables).
C10 Alcohol, Ethoxylated
A mild, non-ionic surfactant that boosts detergent performance by helping water mix with oils and soils.
Sodium Hydroxide
Used in trace amounts to adjust pH and support surfactant performance, ensuring product stability and effectiveness.
Sodium Chloride
Acts as a natural viscosity adjuster and stabiliser, helping keep texture and performance consistent.
