Detergent powder is more aggressive than the
liquid and undoubtedly less advanced in some
respects. It is prepared usually with rather strong
substances; which also react through particular
substances (enzymes) which destroy dirt by
detaching it from the laundry, but does exert
any abrasion on the fabric. The laundry washed
with detergent powder, when dried, is rather
rough and dry because of these aggressive
substances that are absorbed by the fabrics.
This requires generally rinsing with fabric
softener. Furthermore, the enzymes may cause
allergies in some people particularly sensitive.
Not to mention that the less soluble powder
in this type of detergent can be deposited
in the dispenser and in the drainage system,
causing the incrustation of the tubes with all the
ensuing problems. On the other hand, it is the
only detergent that ensures to get a pure white

aggressive whitening agent, effective even at
low temperatures (refer to the labelling and the
degree of dirt).

The liquid detergent is undoubtedly the most
modern and possesses superior cleaning
features. Being less alkaline it preserves the
quality of the fabrics. Although it does not

fibres, thanks to the absence of an insoluble
residue that upon drying becomes hard. The
laundry is more soft and therefore require
less fabric softener. Furthermore, the liquid
