Question from JAD

I saw in the coupon section that Purex has new “Green” laundry products with Natural essential oils.

This would be a great thing to suggest to those that insist on having a smell if it isn’t the same old “Fragrance”.

Please let me know what you think.

Thanks

I had to hunt a bit to find the actual ingredients lists for these products.

Laundry detergent: http://www.purex.com/detergents/ultra-purex-natural-elements

Fabric softener:

Laundry sheets:

They call these “natural” products, but then correctly say they are not 100% natural. Most of the ingredients are manmade substances manufactured from plant sources. The remaining ingredients are nontoxic substances sourced from petrochemicals.

All ingredients are approved by the EPA Design for Environment program. It’s worth checking out their website to understand what their label means, as you will be seeing it on more and more products. On the homepage there is a Product Quick Finder with links to lists of products that have earned their seal.
