TL;DR: Yes. Sensitive Laundry Sheets dissolve in cold water. The speed depends on the wash cycle, water level, and how full the drum is.

Do they dissolve in cold water?
✓ Cold water dissolving
Sensitive Laundry Sheets are formulated to dissolve in both cold and warm water. In a normal wash cycle with regular tumble or agitation, the sheet breaks down and disperses cleaning agents through the load.
What affects dissolving speed?
✓ Water temperature and agitation
Warmer water speeds dissolving, but cold washes still work well. Expect a slightly slower dissolve time in cold. Standard tumble or agitation cycles help the sheet circulate and dissolve. Very gentle or low-agitation cycles take longer.
✓ Water level and drum load
Extremely low-water or ultra-concentrated HE cycles can slow dissolving because there is less water to circulate the sheet. Overloading the drum can block movement and reduce contact between water and the sheet, slowing dissolution.
⚠ How to make sure the sheet dissolves well
✓ Place the sheet in the empty drum before adding clothes so it can move freely
✓ Avoid overloading and leave room for the drum to tumble
✓ For very cold, very short, or ultra-low-water cycles, use a slightly longer cycle or a second sheet
