Does Sensitive Laundry Liquid work in front and top loading washing machines?Updated 7 hours ago
TL;DR: Yes. Sensitive Laundry Liquid works in front loaders, top loaders, and HE (high-efficiency) machines. Cold and warm cycles get the best enzyme performance, hot water (above 50°C) is still compatible but reduces enzyme effectiveness. Pair with the Laundry Dosing Cup or Laundry Pump for easy dosing.
Which washing machines does it work in?
✓ Compatible with all standard machines
Sensitive Laundry Liquid works in front loaders, top loaders (agitator and impeller), and HE machines. Add the dose to the detergent compartment of your dispenser drawer, or directly into the drum if your machine doesn't have a drawer. Low-foaming, so HE machines dispense and rinse without issues.
✓ Best wash temperature
✓ Cold (10-25°C) — fine for everyday loads
✓ Warm (30-40°C) — best enzyme performance
✓ Hot (50°C+) — compatible but enzymes less effective
Enzymes work best in cool to warm water. Hot water won't damage the formula but reduces stain-cleaning power, so save it for heavily soiled bedding or towels.
Which dosing tools can I use?
✓ Precise measuring
The Laundry Dosing Cup is heat-proof silicone, so it can go through the wash to clean itself, and survives the dryer if it accidentally ends up in a load. Fill from the bag-in-box, pour into your machine's dispenser, done.
✓ Pump-style dispensing
The Laundry Pump dispenses 4ml per pump. A regular wash is 6 pumps (24ml), a large or heavily soiled wash is 10 pumps (40ml). No tipping the box, no drips. Good option for limited grip strength or anyone who prefers pumps.
Around 60 washes per box. Sensitive Choice approved, Dermatest tested. Septic and greywater safe.
