Why choose plant-based dishwashing liquid?
Recognizable?
- You wash dishes — a layer of grease remains on plates and glasses, even after rinsing.
- Traditional dishwashing liquids contain harsh chemicals — leaving your hands feeling dry and irritated.
- You're using too much product because the formula doesn't seem strong enough — the bottle empties quickly.
How this helps
- Plant-based surfactants effectively emulsify grease — streak-free clean without soap residue.
- Gentle on hands: 99.5% natural ingredients — biodegradable formula.
- Concentrated: 5–10 ml per sink — 50–100 washes per 500 ml bottle.
Who is this dishwashing liquid for?
- If you wash dishes every day and have sensitive hands, you're looking for a mild product that is effective against grease, but gentle on the skin.
- Households with septic tanks or IBA: you want a biodegradable agent that does not harm bacteria.
- People who want to reduce plastic use: you consciously choose I'm Green® bio-PE (sugarcane-based plastic) instead of traditional PE.
- Fans of fresh citrus scents: You love the citrusy-fresh scent of lemongrass—no harsh chemical smell.

Instructions for use
- 1. Dosage: add 5–10 ml to warm water in the washing-up bowl (~5 litres) or apply directly to a damp sponge.
- 2. Wash: Clean plates, pans, glasses and cutlery — foam is created quickly and dissolves grease effectively.
- 3. Rinse: Rinse dishes thoroughly with clean water — prevents soap residue and streaks.
- 4. Soak: For heavily soiled pans — soak briefly with warm water and dishwashing liquid (5–10 minutes).
Works effectively in cold water, but warm water accelerates degreasing. Adjust dosage based on water hardness and soiling.
Detergent dosage table
| Water hardness | Dosage per sink (~5 l) |
|---|---|
| Soft (<8 °dH) | 5 ml (1 teaspoon) — less foam needed. |
| Medium (8–14 °dH) | 8 ml (1½ teaspoon) — standard dose. |
| Hard (>14 °dH) | 12 ml (2 teaspoons) — extra foam for effective degreasing. |
For 5–10 ml per sink: 500 ml ≈ 50–100 washes. For very hard water or heavy soiling: increase the dosage to 12–15 ml.
How does plant-based dishwashing liquid work?
- Sodium Coco-Sulfate (vegetable surfactant): Emulsifies grease and dirt—making them water-soluble. Derived from coconut, gentle on the skin.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine (amphoteric surfactant): enhances foaming and cleaning power — works effectively in cold water.
- Citric acid: dissolves mineral deposits (limescale) and enhances the cleaning action — prevents fogging on glasses.
- With daily use: stable degreasing result without build-up of soap residue after 1–2 weeks (provided you rinse thoroughly).
