Regular laundry detergent is packed with chemicals, compounds, and dangerous ingredients that can trigger allergies, provoke reactions, and irritate delicate skin. Heritage Park non toxic laundry detergents don't contain any of these problematic ingredients or harmful chemicals:
No Dyes: The dyes used to color a detergent or cleaning product serve absolutely NO purpose and are a source of skin irritation and allergies.
No Sulfates: These chemical compounds are used to create foam in laundry products (and household cleaning and personal care products like dish soap, body wash, and shampoo). Sulfates irritate allergies, eczema, and other skin conditions.
No Phosphates: Used to soften hard water, phosphates are toxic chemicals dangerous for people and the environment. Most reputable detergent manufacturers have stopped using phosphates.
No Chlorine: This highly reactive chemical element is used to disinfect and sanitize but triggers irritation and contact dermatitis. It can also cause fading and damage to fabrics over time.
No Bleach: Oxygen and chlorine bleach can irritate the skin. Bleach should be used only following the manufacturer’s directions and in small quantities, never as an ingredient in detergent.
No Optical Brighteners: These synthetic chemicals remain on clothing and laundry to absorb UV light and make items appear brighter. Along with irritating skin, these compounds are NOT biodegradable.
