Why buy both white and color detergent when ONE detergent can actually do the job (better)? We are introducing our latest addition to the Västerbottens soap family, namely an all-purpose detergent for both white and colored laundry, tough on tough stains and extra gentle on the environment.
Our new all-purpose detergent replaces the traditional detergents and is an effective detergent for daily washing of textiles that are both colored and white. If you want to bleach the white laundry further, we recommend that you add 2-3 tablespoons of completely natural bicarbonate. Our All-Washing Agent is active from 30*C and above. Note that you still need to separate colored and white laundry and read the garment's washing instructions.
The bottle lasts up to 21 washes and the price per wash is SEK 4.20.
✔️ Completely free from optical brighteners
✔️ WITHOUT bleach, perborates and percarbonate
✔️ UTAN SLES, (Sodium laureth ethoxylate sulfates)
✔️ Free from Enzymes and TAED (Tetra Acetyl Ethylene Diamine)
✔️ Probably the only thing on the market without warning symbols

Det finns en tabell för dosering som utgår ifrån hårdheten på ditt vatten, mängden tvätt samt hur hårt smutsad tvätten är. De flesta hushåll i Sverige har mjukt vatten men är du osäker kan du kontrollera detta med din kommun. Har man mjukt vatten använder man den lägre doseringen tvättmedel.
35 ml till 4-5 kg tvätt i mjukt vatten, +6 kg tvätt, 55ml
40 ml till 4-5 kg tvätt i medelhårt vatten, +6 kg tvätt, 65ml
50 ml till 4-5 kg tvätt i hårt vatten, +6 kg tvätt, 75ml
Korken rymmer 40ml.
Följ alltid plaggens tvättråd. Att tvätta rätt gör att plaggen håller längre och det sparar miljön. Tvätta heller inte i onödan, tvätta bara om plagget behöver tvättas.
Förbehandla fläckar, feta fläckar och fläckar från människa, djur och natur (det vill säga de flesta fläckar) förbehandlas med såpa.
Maskintvätt: häll tvättmedlet i tvättmedelsfack eller tvättboll som sätts direkt i trumman.
Handtvätt: 10-15 ml till 10l vatten, använd handskar, att ha händerna i vatten en längre tid kan ge problem oavsett tvätt eller diskmedel.
TVÄTT TEMPERATUR:
30*c till 95*c
Här gäller lite sunt förnuft men tvättråden i plaggen ger dig en mycket bra ide om hur varmt plagget bör tvättas.
Följ tvättråden och sortera tvätten efter färg.
Arbetskläder som är hårt smutsade, förorenade eller har varit i kontakt med sjuka personer bör tvättas på högre temperaturer.
Lätt smutsade plagg av känslig kvalitet med tryck och detaljer bör vändas ut och in och tvättas på låg temperatur.
Syntetiska plagg som tex fleece bör tvättas i en tvättpåse avsedd för att samla upp mikroplaster.
Låg temperatur gör att man sparar energi och miljö genom att plaggets livslängd förlängs men tänk på att din egen kroppstemperatur är 37*C så att sänka tvätt temperaturen till 20*C eller 30*C innebär faktiskt att du tvättar i ganska kallt vatten. Du bör fråga dig om plaggen du ska tvätta rimligen kommer att bli rena på den temeperaturen utifrån hur smutsiga de faktiskt är. Till exempel kommer inte hårt smutsade arbetskläder från tex en verkstad att bli rena på 30*C oavsett tvättmedel.
Underkläder, här råder olika uppfattningar men en rekommendation är ändå att tvätta underkläder på minst 40*C, men även här gäller att man ska följa tvättråden.
Specifikation:
- 750ml, återvinningsbar PET-flaska. Korken rymmer 40ml
- Innehåll: Nonjoniska tensider>5<15%, tvål<5%, polykarboxylater<5%, parfym.

Säkerhetstips:
- BH-byglar och andra metallföremål som kan lossna kan skada din tvättmaskin, använd därför alltid tvättpåse till sådant.
- Tänk också på att nya och gamla tvättmaskiner skiljer sig åt. Nya tvättmaskiner har helt andra och fiffiga funktioner som gamla maskiner inte har.
- Sortera som plastförpackning, PET. Städprodukten skall ej förtäras.
- Förvaras utom räckhåll för barn & djur samt skilt från livsmedel.
What makes Västerbottenssoapa's all-purpose detergent different from "ordinary" detergents that you buy in the grocery store?
Västerbottenssoapa's all-purpose detergent uses a new technology without bleach, enzyme and SLES (Sodium laurate ethoxylated sulfates). This means that we use a smaller amount of substances without reducing the effect. It's good for the environment, the climate and you!

Jag avslöjar hemligheterna bakom vårt tvättmedel – Så här fungerar det
Simplify your laundry routine
It's as simple as this:
Pre-treat any stains with soap. Use a washing brush on coarse materials and a cellulose sponge on finer materials.
Sort whites and colored laundry.
Use the same detergent for both white and colored laundry. Wash the clothes according to the washing instructions on them. Add natural bicarbonate directly to the drum if you want a whitening effect
So we created a detergent without harmful chemicals
Extend the lifespan of your clothes
Energize the stains and save the clothes with our stain removal soap
Effective stain removal
Problems that can arise in the laundry are that the clothes do not get completely clean. Pre-treating stains before putting them in the washing machine and washing according to the washing instructions reduces the risk of the stains remaining and you needing to buy new clothes.
Our soap is overfatted and therefore extra effective against greasy stains and stains that come from animals or the plant kingdom. Use soap, warm water and our washing brush for coarse materials, or the cellulose sponge when removing stains from finer materials.
Common questions
How much detergent is really needed to get the laundry clean?
It depends on how hard the water is. Hard water requires more detergent. However, most households in Sweden have soft water. It also depends on how heavily soiled the laundry is, how much laundry there is and how big the machine is. But lightly soiled laundry, normal machine and soft water 35ml. Increase from there as needed but don't overdose.
How much detergent is needed for hand washing?
10-15ml to a 10l tub of water, same here, you can use a little more detergent if it is heavily soiled laundry.
What about a full and a half full machine?
The dosage on the bottle applies to a full machine, reduce if you have a smaller amount of laundry.
Is it environmentally friendly?
And.
How can I reduce my use of detergent to be more environmentally friendly?
Wash only when necessary, air instead if possible. Pre-treat stains and do not lower wash temperatures too much.
Is it fragrance-free?
There is a variant with and one without fragrance.
Is it allergy-friendly?
Allergy sufferers should choose the fragrance-free variant, always regardless of what applies, an allergy sufferer should think fragrance-free, this also applies to skin creams, shampoos and products with essential oils. Always choose without added fragrance if you are allergic.
Can it be used for baby clothes?
Yes, please choose unscented. Small children do not need fragrances for their clothes.
Can it be used for both white, black and colored laundry?
Yes, it's going well. However, our detergent contains neither bleach nor optical whitener. If you feel that you need to bleach a garment, we recommend 1-2 tablespoons of bicarbonate.
Does it work on different materials (wool, silk, sportswear)?
Our detergent contains no enzymes, so even wool can be washed with our detergent. However, sensitive garments and sensitive materials must always be washed according to the washing instructions in the garment and with great care.
Does it remove musty odors from polyester clothes (workout clothes)?
Yes, wash according to the washing advice and feel free to use our citrus-scented detergent.
What are the most common ingredients in detergents and how do they affect my clothes and my skin?
Detergents contain surfactants and all surfactants affect the surface tension of the water, so you must follow recommendations and make sure you have an approved drain. Bleach in detergent affects the textile as it sounds, it bleaches and it is a strain on the textile fibres. Optical bleaches are particles that settle on the outside and give the illusion that the garment is whiter than it is, and so detergents often contain perfumes.
How do different washing programs and temperatures affect the effectiveness of detergents?
All cleaning, including laundry, is based on four parts: temperature, time, mechanical cleaning and chemicals. If you lower the temperature, you need to increase it by another part. Washing program and machine stand for the mechanical part, temp and time you set here. The detergent accounts for the fourth part.
Imagine washing dishes by hand or washing your hands, how hot water do you need? Your body is 37*C (usually) does the water you wash in feel hot or cold? Then think about the laundry and the stains in front of you, at what temperature does it feel reasonable that you would be able to solve these stains? A washing program with 30*C is therefore colder than your body temperature. Lowering the temperature is an argument for saving energy and that's right, but it's no saving if your clothes don't get clean or stains don't disappear because the washing temperature is too low and you instead go and buy a new garment.
How does hard or soft water affect the effectiveness of detergents?
If you have hard or medium hard water, you need more detergent. Soft water requires less detergent.
The hardness of water is indicated in German degrees of hardness, °dH (°dH = Grad deutscher Härte). The higher the levels of calcium and magnesium ions, the harder the water. 1°dH corresponds to 7.1 milligrams of calcium per liter and 4.3 milligrams of magnesium per liter.
- 0-2: very soft
- 2-5: soft
- 5-10: medium hard
- 10-21: hard
- >21: very hard
What should I do if I spill detergent directly on my clothes or on the floor?
Wipe up and wash off immediately.
How do I clean my washing machine to prevent bad odors and bacterial growth?
