The original multitasking cleaner. It cleans, deodorises and freshens up pretty much everything in your home — from kitchen hobs to smelly trainers.
Sodium bicarbonate is a naturally occurring mineral salt. As a mild alkali, it neutralises acids (hence tackling odours rather than masking them) and breaks down grease and grime on contact. Its fine, slightly abrasive texture makes it effective for scrubbing surfaces without scratching, while its water-softening properties help detergents work harder.
Mix it into a paste for scrubbing sinks and ovens, sprinkle it on carpets and upholstery to absorb odours, or add it to your wash cycle as a natural fabric softener.
It also polishes chrome, stainless steel and silver without scratching. One product for lots of different cleaning jobs.
It comes packed in a kraft paper resealable pouch that is compostable once empty. Best of all, it costs a fraction of the specialist bottles it replaces. A trusted household cleaning agent that has been in use for centuries.
Fun fact: Bicarbonate of soda has actually been used as a cleaning agent for centuries – even by the ancient Egyptians almost 4000 years ago!
