Key features & specs

How it compares

Compared to traditional dishwasher powders, Seventh Generation Dishwasher Detergent Packs offer a pre-measured dose that eliminates mess and waste. While many conventional brands use phosphates to soften water and chlorine to bleach stains, Seventh Generation utilizes enzymes that break down proteins and starches naturally. This results in dishes that are just as clean but without the lingering chemical scent often found with major commercial brands.

How to use it

1. Ensure your hands are dry before handling the detergent packs to prevent premature melting.
2. Place one single pack into the main dispenser cup of your dishwasher.
3. Close the dispenser door and ensure the dishwasher is loaded without blocking the spray arms.
4. Run your dishwasher on its standard cycle for optimal enzyme activation.
5. Store the resealable pouch in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the pods.
