Washbox XL – how ecological washing changed my daily routine
Introduction
Washing baby clothes is a daily ritual that, for mothers, means not only cleaning but also caring for their sensitive skin and the future of our planet. When I came across Wasbox XL—a natural laundry and care product—I was curious to see if it could actually remove beetroot and grass stains. After the first wash, I knew I'd made the right choice.
🌱 My journey to conscious washing
I tested the Wasbox XL at 30°C — this temperature saves up to 40% energy compared to washing at 60°C (source: Energy Efficiency Report 2024) 1 . After one cycle, white rompers regained their shine, and my son’s navy blue sweatpants (100% cotton) remained deeply saturated. The “Tropical Dream” scent (coconut • vanilla • citrus) is a daily moment of pleasure.
❤️ Mothers' experiences
“With Wasbox XL our rash problems have disappeared – even my 2-month-old baby’s sensitive skin doesn’t complain anymore!”
– Anna, mother of 4-month-old Frank (100% cotton romper)
I love the eco-friendly packaging and the fact that the detergent works at lower temperatures – my energy bill has dropped by about 20%! I use it for my jeans and fleece.
– Marta, mother of two toddlers
