Automatic Dishwashing Powder  

Many conventional Automatic dishwasher detergents contain dry chlorine that is activated when dissolved in water. Chlorine fumes in the steam seep out of the dishwasher and can cause eye irritation and difficulty breathing. Many other brands also contain highly allergic enzymes, or quarternium 15, an eye and skin irritant and an allergen which can release carcinogenic formaldehyde. And if that’s not bad enough, traditional Dish Powders are the most common reported household poisoning among children!
Nature Clean's Dishwasher Powder is made without chlorine bleach so there’s no irritating odour. It’s also 100% Phosphate free, which means that it's not adding to the strain on our already overtaxed fresh water lakes and rivers. Nature Clean also avoids the equally harmful replacements for phosphates - EDTA and NTA, used in many other phosphate free dishwasher powders. EDTA and NTA can combine with heavy metals in our lakes and then work their way up the food chain, getting more and more concentrated as they go.

THE COMPANY
Nature Clean products have been made by the Ross family for over 30 years and are Canada's oldest and original brand of natural cleaning alternatives. Their first two products were developed more than 35 years ago for a mother who suffered from allergies to such ingredients as dyes, synthetic perfumes and formaldehyde preservatives. Today, Nature Clean products meet the needs of the chemically sensitive, the environmentally aware, those concerned with animal rights and individuals trying to avoid the hazards of toxic household products.

THE PRODUCTS
All Nature Clean products are non-toxic and formulated with no petroleum distillates. This means that they biodegrade rapidly, are completely compatible with septic systems, are hypoallergenic, and are made without animal byproducts or animal testing. The products are packaged in 100% recycled plastic containers, which are clearly marked with recycling symbols.

NON-TOXIC & CHILD SAFE
Nature Clean products have never been involved in a single accidental poisoning. Over 1,000,000 accidental poisonings occur each year in North America. Over 60% happen to children under the age of 6. With the greatest number of these poisonings caused from cleaning substances, we are proud to offer non-toxic alternatives. They're safer for both adults and children!

HYPOALLERGENIC
A growing number of individuals are suffering from environmental allergies or chemical sensitivities. Nature Clean uses no perfumes, dyes, formaldehyde preservatives, enzymes, optical brighteners, ammonia, or any other ingredient commonly known to cause allergic reactions. Their products are recommended for use in homes where people suffer from asthma.

CRUELTY-FREE
Manufactured and tested without cruelty to animals. Nature Clean products contain no animal ingredients or animal byproducts as raw materials. They themselves do not test, nor do they have any other company test their products on animals.

BIODEGRADABILITY
99% within 28 days, depending upon the product. Based on the testing of various ingredients in OECD (the European Standard) testing for biodegradability. Because Nature Clean soaps and surfactants are vegetable based, they break down into simple sugars used by micro-organisms. They avoid petroleum-based ingredients because these are non-renewable resources that are difficult to biodegrade and are often harmful to aquatic life.

SEPTIC SAFE
These products are recommended for use in homes with septic tank systems. They do not contain corrosive chemicals which destroy the necessary organisms in septic systems.

PACKAGING
Most Nature Clean bottles are made from recycled post consumer plastic. They recycle milk and water bottles which are converted into the new bottle which again can be recycled. In addition, all their display materials and cartons are made from 100% unbleached recycled corrugate and again can be recycled.

LABELLING
Nature Clean offers full disclosure of ingredients on every product, having adopted the philosophy that they have nothing to hide.
