Good washing results also depend
on the choice of detergent and use
of the correct quantities to avoid
waste and protect the
environment.

contain substances which, in large
quantities, can upset the delicate
balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend
on the type of fabric (delicates,
woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour,
washing temperature and degree of
soiling.
