Ecover's Delicate Wash Laundry Detergent is Tough on Dirt but Gentle to the Planet and Clothes

Eco-friendly laundry detergent

Although we are a Charlie’s Soap loving household; they are hard to come by. We usually have to order it online. So when we run out and need a laundry detergent; we turn to Ecover’s Ecological Delicate Wash Laundry Wash. It’s gentle on the planet but tough on cleaning. We even wash our cloth diapers in Ecover (with Bac-Out by Biokleen). LIke Seventh Generation, Ecover is a well known Environmentally friendly company that stands on its brand reputation. What we love about Ecover is that its relatively affordable for a family on a budget (like us) and its wide availability. It used to be available in the Natural and Organic section at our local grocer. Since our move to South Florida; we do have to trek to Whole Foods, but it’s worth it. We like to browse the bulk aisle while we are there.

Reasons to Love Ecover Delicate Wash

  • It’s good on fragile materials like silk and wool. Great to wash wool covers with.
  • No petrochemical ingredients. Only plant based ingredients which reduces our dependence on petroleum
  • No phosphates or brighteners (Not necessary to get clothes clean; I can assure you)
  • Cruelty Free
  • Ecover is a trusted brand for green and natural products. (No Greenwashing here)

Should I mention how good it smells. Very fresh but not overpowering. I really dig it. Ecover delicate wash is suitable for both top and front loading machines.

    I bought a huge tub of Charlies Soap (1-year supply) and they shipped it to me free. It’s great.

    However, I did have to stop using it on my cloth diapers. After months and months of using it, stripping my diapers, adding water softener, extra rinses and everything I could think of, my daughter still kept getting rashes (we have very hard water and lots of hemp diapers and I read that Charlie’s Soap doesn’t always do well in hard water). So, I switched to Ecover Laundry Liquid and LOVE it (rash is gone). I did see the delicate version at the store. Maybe I’ll try that next. However, on their website, in one of their liquid laundry products, I did see SLS as an ingredient. Do you know if they are phasing this out (I’m not sure if it’s in my version. I live in Europe and I can’t tell if I’m using a different version or not – though, I think not)? I was disappointed to see it. Any thoughts?

    Oh, and I still use Charlie’s Soap on all my other clothes w/no problems.
