Grüne Hexe Dishwasher Tabs

Urea, 15-<30% oxygen-based bleach, <5% polycarboxylates, <5% non-ionic surfactants, <5% phosphonates, enzymes, fragrances. All ingredients are easily  biodegradable.

Unnecessary and harmful ingredients such as phosphonates, microplastics, palm oil or colorants and preservatives are of course not not part of the recipe.

Yes, all ingredients contained in the formulation are easily biodegradable. In addition, urea supports bioactivity in wastewater, so that the ingredients are already decomposed faster on the way to water treatment.

Even water degradable foil will end up somewhere in nature. So Grüne Hexe tabs are not wrapped in any foil to avoid waste.

The dishwashing tabs are deliberately smaller than normal tabs so that the amount of detergent can be flexibly adjusted to the degree of soiling and the load of the dishwasher. For normal soiling and loading, 3 tabs are usually sufficient; for tougher cases, a fourth tab helps.

The pouch is mainly made of paper. Inside is a thin plastic layer required to protect the tabs from moisture.

Salt in the dishwasher softens the water and thus protects dishes, cutlery and the machine itself from limescale deposits. Rinse aid makes the dishes dry better and prevents stains. The need for salt and rinse aid depends on the local water hardness and the dishwasher. Grüne Hexe dishwashing tabs therefore deliberately avoid salt and rinse aid, so that only as much of it is used as is absolutely necessary. Water hardness can be easily determined using test strips. Detailed dosing instructions can be found in the instructions of your dishwasher.

Urea is a caring component of our skin and is produced naturally in our body. The urea used in the tabs is synthetically produced, but is of course just as non-toxic and easily biodegradable as natural urea. In dishwasher detergents, urea is a multi-talent: it improves water solubility, acts as a natural cleaning surfactant, provides a radiant shine effect and helps to break down the other ingredients in the wastewater faster after cleaning.

Grüne Hexe dishwasher detergents clean environmentally friendly, organic and with perfect performance. Behind it is years of continuous biotechnological research.
