Key features & specs

How it compares

When compared to traditional liquid detergents, ECOS Next Liquidless Laundry Detergent Squares offer a drastically lower carbon footprint due to reduced shipping weight and the absence of water-based fillers. Unlike powder detergents, these squares dissolve instantly without leaving chalky residues behind on dark fabrics or within machine seals.

In the broader market of laundry strips, ECOS maintains a competitive edge by keeping their formula EWG Verified, ensuring a higher standard of ingredient safety than many generic subscription-based detergent sheets.

How to use it

1. Determine your load size; use half a square for small loads and one full square for medium loads.
2. Place the detergent square directly into the laundry drum or the dispenser drawer.
3. Add your clothing on top of the square to ensure immediate contact with water.
4. Select your preferred cycle and water temperature, as the sheets dissolve in all conditions.
5. For heavily soiled items, you can pre-treat stains by rubbing a damp corner of a square onto the fabric.
