Eco Egg

Using eco-friendly detergent becomes a breeze! - The Story of Eco Egg

Eco Egg, a new form of sustainable detergent, was founded by Dawn White, who struggled with eczema and the effects of detergents on her skin. This inspired her to develop an eco-friendly detergent that is gentle on the skin and kind to the environment! Thus, in 2014, the EcoEgg laundry egg was born, which can be filled with laundry pellets. No more need for plastic detergent bottles!

After several redesigns, the Eco Egg has evolved into an eco-friendly laundry solution with minimalist packaging. This sustainable detergent actively fights the use of plastic bottles. In 2021, only 44.2% of all plastic bottles in the UK were actually recycled – it's time to tackle plastic bottle production! With Eco Egg, you save an average of 40 plastic bottles per year, and the laundry egg comes with a 10-year guarantee. The hypoallergenic and dermatologically tested formula offers everyone a sustainable, skin-friendly alternative to conventional detergents. This way, sustainable detergent is accessible to all.

Be a good egg, save the planet! - with the EcoEgg laundry egg.

What exactly is the innovation behind Eco Egg's sustainable detergent?

The unique operation of Eco Egg is based on the use of pellets, placed in a reusable egg in the washing machine. These pellets, available in a non-bio enzyme-free variant, are specially designed to prevent skin irritations such as eczema. Traditional enzymes in detergents can irritate the skin, but EcoEgg offers a mild, hypoallergenic alternative. There are two types of pellets used together, each with its own power:

• White Pellets:

The white pellets contain molecules that bond to both greasy stains and water. This helps loosen and effectively remove dirt and stains from fabrics. This sustainable detergent is gentle on clothes but powerful enough to tackle even stubborn stains.

• Black Pellets:

The black pellets are made from tourmaline, a semi-precious stone that reduces the surface tension of water. This allows the wash water to penetrate deeper into the fabric fibers, contributing to effective cleaning. It also naturally ionizes the water, making it slightly more alkaline – aiding in stain removal!

How do you use the Eco Egg?

The Eco Egg Laundry Egg is a one-time purchase that lasts for years. Instead of repeatedly buying plastic bottles, simply refill the egg with pellets every 50 to 70 wash cycles. A truly eco-friendly detergent! This not only makes laundry hygienically clean but also reduces plastic use and saves money in the long run. The cost is approximately 10 cents per wash!

• Fill the egg with the included pellets (both white and black – it’s a team effort!).

• Place the laundry egg into your washing machine drum – one egg is sufficient for 7-8 kg of laundry.

• Ensure the machine is not overfilled – the egg needs room to circulate.

• The pellets in the laundry egg last for 70 washes!
