🧴 Dirty Labs Bio Enzyme Laundry Detergent (Free & Clear) – a hyper-concentrated liquid (80 loads) in an infinitely recyclable aluminum bottle, with every ingredient published down to its CAS number.
🌿 Plant-based & naturally derived
- Water – the liquid base.
- Lauryl glucoside – a gentle cleaner made from coconut oil and plant sugar.
- Caprylyl/capryl glucoside – another sugar-and-coconut surfactant that lifts everyday grime.
- Capryloyl/caproyl methyl glucamide – a biobased surfactant from coconut and corn sugar.
- Coconut fatty acid – from coconut oil; helps control suds and condition fabrics.
- Glycerine – a plant-derived moisture-keeper that stabilizes the formula.
- Sodium citrate – the salt of plant-fermented citric acid; softens hard water.
- Protease, alpha-amylase, cellulase, mannanase & pectate lyase – five enzymes brewed by fermentation, each targeting a different stain type (protein, starch, fuzz, gums, and fruit/plant stains).
⚠️ Lab-made
- Potassium hydroxide & sodium hydroxide – mineral-derived pH balancers used in tiny amounts and essentially consumed as the formula is made.
- Propanediol & propylene glycol – lab-made solvents that keep the enzymes stable and active in liquid form.
✅ Twelve of the sixteen ingredients are water, plant-derived, or fermentation enzymes; four are lab-made helpers used in small amounts. 97% USDA Certified Biobased overall.
♻️ Packaging: Infinitely recyclable aluminum bottle – zero plastic jug. Free of sulfates, dyes, parabens, and chlorine bleach.
🌼 Hippiekit Take: Dirty Labs publishes its complete formula with CAS registry numbers – the gold standard of ingredient disclosure, and we applaud it.
