Why Is Their Laundry Detergent Blue?
Why is laundry detergent thick and blue? Get ready to rethink what you’re putting in your clothing.
The next time you fill up that sticky plastic detergent cup to where you can only guess is ‘line 2’ with a brightly colored substance reminiscent of a blueberry pie filling, take a second to ask, “why is laundry detergent blue anyway?”
Laundry detergents haven’t changed in decades
Most detergents were made for yesterday’s fabrics and lifestyles. These laundry detergents use bluing agents and optical brighteners to make white fabrics appear whiter. But is that truly clean? Not really. (Especially when they leave blue stains, forcing you to re-wash.)
Traditional detergents make you think your clothes are clean. They don’t address the real issue: bacterial odor that builds up in fabrics.
Optical brighteners are used in regular detergents to make your whites look whiter, without actually cleaning.
Why is their laundry detergent gooey?
Turns out, there’s extra goop clogging up most detergents. It’s not that we all love to wait for the detergent to slowly drip out of the cup. The thickness of most detergents is due to the dyes and fillers they use that don’t really make your clothes any cleaner.
With HEX, the difference is clear.
