Sustainable washing machine detergent and methods

[vivalalavatrice]

Hi guys!

Though I've been washing this way for one year now and I cand assume that it could be really a good sustainable wash methods to use this two substances for do the laundry...

Soft soap

I always use soft soap applied on stains or anyway ther's greasy or solid soil, and then the prewash phase will perform the stain removal.

ORO o Aurora?!

I always used the ORO Sapone molle made by Randisi, a manufacturer planted in Sicily but honestly even though I always thouhgt that only there they make this soap I found that they do soft saop near Naples too: the manufacturer is the Caiazzo srl
and looking for some specification more about the Aurora Sapone Ecologico this is what I found, nevertheless the recip of the soft soap discovering that is not other than potashes hydroxide and coconut oil even though this is citron fragrance

And finally the main wash!

The Main wash will be peformed then with "liscivia" that's sodium carbonate...

Just two spoon of that and if necessary Calgon

The result is sparkly clean! The only bad aspect is that your laundry don't smell of nothing... so a fabric conditioner/softner is required to have the desired fragrance and sometimes at end due to the high temperature of white cycles and due to the oil composing the soap you have to bleach to obtain the whitest whites!

Randisi srl, provide in its range of product the "Azolo" too called Blue 2000 and its a powder to use in the last rinse to do the bluing.
