    As the infographic points out, its biggest achievement is serving as a phosphate-free alternative to STPP (Sodium Tripolyphosphate) in commercial detergents.

    Back in the mid-to-late 20th century, laundry detergents were packed with phosphates because they are incredibly efficient at stripping minerals out of hard water.

  6. The EU bans the sale of animal-tested detergents and demands cruelty-free alternatives

  12. @Beedazzled that’s crazy! “Their hypothesis is that #glyphosate is a transformation product from aminopolyphosphonates which are used extensively in Europe and especially in laundry #detergents”. Particularly interesting that “In contrast to #Europe, aminopolyphosphonates are hardly used in the U.S. in laundry detergents”, so why can’t the #EU change and by this I mean regulate detergents, not deregulate #herbicides! #Green #rivers #environment.

  18. Most glyphosate in European #rivers may not come from #herbicides application in #agriculture. For decades, the main source of #glyphosate has been municipal #wastewater and it may enter rivers as a transformation product from #detergents used in Europe: doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-39179

  21. The Commission's proposal for the revision of the #Detergents Regulation lacks ambition.

    The new Regulation should respond to the EU’s #ZeroPollution goal

    #biodegradability #microplastics #phosphorus

    If this Regulation truly wants to be future-proof, it should aim to at least reach the levels set out in the Ecolabel criteria that have proved feasible and successful in the market.

"Experts encourage using the cold cycle as much as possible. “The temperature that we’re #washing with is often way too warm,” Joyner Martinez says, adding that hot water settings are only really necessary for sanitizing. Modern #laundry #detergents, even those that aren’t marked for #cold-#water use, are typically formulated to clean just as well at lower temperatures."
