How should I store Sensitive Laundry Sheets and how do I dispose of the packaging?Updated 3 days ago
TL;DR: Store Sensitive Laundry Sheets sealed in their original pack in a cool, dry place away from sun, heat, and humidity. The outer cardboard box is fully recyclable: flatten it and place it in your paper or cardboard bin. To dispose of leftover sheets, dissolve them in warm water and pour down the sink, or place them in general household waste.
How should I store them?
✓ Storage essentials
Keep the pack sealed in its original packaging when you're not using it. Stash it in a cool, dry cupboard or pantry, away from direct sunlight and heat. If you transfer Sensitive Laundry Sheets to another container, make it airtight so moisture can't reach them.
⚠ Avoid these mistakes
Don't store the pack in damp laundry rooms or under sinks unless it's well protected. Steam and humidity break sheets down before they reach the wash.
Don't leave the pack open between uses. Reseal it or move sheets into an airtight container.
Don't use sheets that have gone damp, soft, or visibly damaged. Discard them and grab a fresh one.
How do I recycle the box and dispose of leftover sheets?
✓ Recycle the box
The outer packaging is a fully recyclable cardboard box. Flatten it to save space and place it in your paper or cardboard kerbside bin. Check your local council rules for any regional variations.
✓ Dispose of leftover sheets
Don't want the rest of the pack? Dissolve sheets in warm water and pour the solution down the sink with running water, or place unused sheets in general household waste. Sensitive Laundry Sheets are designed to dissolve in the wash, so a successful load leaves nothing to dispose of.
⚠ Avoid these mistakes
Don't flush sheets down the toilet. They aren't designed for sewer systems and can cause blockages.
Don't pour dissolved solution into stormwater drains. Use the regular sink with running water.
Don't tip dissolved solution onto edible garden beds. If you reuse laundry water for irrigation, follow your local greywater guidance.
Pre-measured detergent in a paper-thin sheet. Drop one in the drum and you're done.
Pair it with
Stain Remover for tougher, localised stains before washing.
