What's in it?  We're all about transparancy so here's the breakdown of ingredients in simple terms.  No surprises at Tea Trees.

Sodium Carbonate:                                                                    

Used in manufacturing glass and soap and is used as a water softener.  It’s an approved food additive and can act as an antacid. Importantly, it has disinfectant properties and cuts through grease, organic soils,

Ethoxylated alcohol                                                                   

An effective germ killer, gentle on skin, biodegradable and non toxic

Quaternary ammonium salts                                   

Disinfectants & antibacterial, often used in fabric softeners and hair conditioners.  An effective anti bacterial solution.

Berol 226SA                                                                                 

A water based alkaline cleaner which is an exceptional cleaning solution of fat/oil and particulate soils.  Meets US EPA Safer Choice requirements

Sodium Sulphate                                                                        

Creates the suds in shampoo, this material is a naturally occurring salt which is non toxic and assists in the cleaning process

Citric Acid Anhydrous                                                               

Citric Acid comes from citrus fruits.  The ‘anhydrous’ part refers to ‘no water’ – hence it’s in a tablet!  It’s used as a preservative, is non toxic and kills bacteria, mold and mildew.  It’s considered a gentle cleaner for those with sensitive skin and is biodegradable

Sodium Silicate Anhydrous                                                     

Helps to reduce hard water and reduces mineral deposits on surfaces.  It’s biodegrable and slightly toxic in high concentration so be careful handling the undissolved tablet.

Polyethylene glycol 6000                                                         

Otherwise known as PEG6000, it’s found in many medicines, toothpastes and is also a permitted additive in foods. It’s used as a mould release agent and is found to be non toxic                            

Sodium Benzoate                                                                       

Often used as a preservative, it’s found in some soft drinks.  Benzoic acid is a good preservative and when combining it with Sodium Hydroxide it becomes more dissolvable (important when considering our tablets have to dissolve!) Some bacteria produce benzoic acid when fermenting yoghurt!  It’s biodegradable and non – toxic as a cleaning agent.

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid Disodium Salt                

Safe, not easily absorbed by the skin, used as an ingredient in some foods, EDTA salt assists in binding the ingredients together.  Nontoxic and safe for the environment in small doses.
