Where should I store Sensitive Laundry Liquid?Updated a day ago
TL;DR: Keep Sensitive Laundry Liquid somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight, with the Laundry Pump cap sealed after refilling. A laundry cupboard or under the sink suits most homes. Shelf life is 12 months.
Where should I store Sensitive Laundry Liquid?
✓ Where it's happy
- A cool, dry cupboard, or under the sink. Any internal cupboard does the job.
- Out of direct sunlight, and away from a heater or a sunny windowsill.
- Cap sealed on the Laundry Pump after you refill it.
- Out of reach of children and pets, the same as any laundry product.
⚠ Where it isn't
Heat and sunlight both work on the enzymes over time, and enzymes doing less means the wash does less. An Australian garage in February is the classic offender, and so is the shelf above the dryer. A damp corner is worth avoiding too, because the cardboard outer is cardboard.
Does it go off, and how long does a box last?
✓ 12 months, and around 60 washes to a box
Shelf life is 12 months, and a box covers around 60 washes. At a few loads a week most households are through a box long before the 12 months matters, so this is less of a live worry than it sounds. Stored cool and dry with the cap sealed, it works the same on the last wash as the first.
How should I store the Laundry Pump between washes?
✓ Three small habits
Seal it as you refill. Do it in the moment rather than meaning to come back, which is how caps end up off for a fortnight.
Store it upright. The Laundry Pump lives in the same cupboard as the box, standing up.
Prime it if it draws air. A few presses and it's back to a full 4 mL per pump, which is what the 6-pump normal dose depends on.
If you'd rather measure than count, the Laundry Dosing Cup carries markers at 24 mL and 40 mL and stores flat.
Around 60 washes per box, 12-month shelf life, bag-in-box. Sensitive Choice approved, Dermatest tested. Septic compatible when used as directed. Made in Australia.
