Nellie's

The Nellie’s brand was inspired by – you guessed it – Nellie! That’s right – she was a real person with real values, who believed in honesty and simplicity. It was these beliefs that inspired the company’s founder, James Roberts (and Nellie’s actual son) to build an entire company honoring his late mother.

Their products are biodegradable (keeping the environment as spotless as your clothes), hypoallergenic (free of harmful toxins, phosphates, and synthetic fragrances), made with no fillers, HE machine-certified, and really work.

WHY POWDER? Liquid detergents are made up largely of water. Nellie's doesn't think selling and moving water around the planet is a very good idea. The fact is, more cleaning power can be packed into a smaller space using powder.

WHY METAL PACKAGING? Metal is one of the easiest and most accepted materials on the planet to recycle. This product comes in a 100% recyclable container.

• Laundry Soda

  Made with only four ingredients, Laundry Soda is a highly concentrated formula that dissolves quickly in cold or hot water. Most importantly, it rinses completely clear, leaving your skin and the environment as spotless as your clothes.

  Use: Use one tablespoon of Nellie’s Laundry Soda for each regular sized load. Wash according to instructions on garments. Always test on garments that may bleed or fade.

  Ingredients: Sodium Carbonate, Linear Alcohol Ethoxylate, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Metasilicate.

  Oxygen Brightener

  Nellie’s Oxygen Brightener uses the power of oxygen to penetrate stains and strip away dirt, odor, and grime. As a safe alternative to bleach, it keeps your colors bright and your whites white. Above all, the formula is chlorine-free, color-safe, septic-safe, hypoallergenic, and eco-friendly.

  Use:

  • Machine wash: Add into wash cycle with Nellie’s Laundry Soda. Small loads – 1 tablespoon; regular loads – 2 tablespoons; large loads – 3 tablespoons. Use 3 tablespoons for very dirty or stained clothing.
  • Pre-soak or hand wash: separate whites from colors. Use only one tablespoon along with Nellie’s Laundry Soda in 10 L (2.6 gallons) of WARM or HOT water. Soak for 1/2 hour then rinse thoroughly.
  • General stain removal: create a solution using 1 tablespoon per 16 oz (500 ml) of water for upholstery, fabric, kitchen floors, counters, trash cans, and all other water washable surfaces. Apply the solution to stain, wait 1-5 minutes, scrub with sponge or blot with a towel. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
  • Carpet spot remover: create a solution using 1 tablespoon per 16 oz (500 ml) of water. Soak up excess liquid before applying the solution to stain. Use only enough to cover the stained area, wait 1-5 minutes, soak up with a white towel. Repeat if necessary. Ringer thoroughly with water and blot dry. Vacuum once dry.

  DO NOT USE: on wool, silk or leather. Not for use on jewelry, latex, paints or wood.

  Ingredients: Sodium Carbonate, Sodium Percarbonate, Sodium Sulfate, Primary Linear Alcohol Ethoxylate.

• Dishwasher Powder

  Nellie’s Dish Powder easily penetrates grease, food particles & more, leaving every plate spotless.

  Use: Use the hottest water available (60°C-70°C/140°F-150°F). Fill detergent cups as recommended by machine manufacturer (I use 1 scoop for a regular load). If the machine has no cup dispenser, place 1 tablespoon in the bottom of the dishwasher for an average load of dishes. More powder may be required in hard water areas; soft water may require less.

  Ingredients: Sodium Chloride, Sodium Carbonate, Citric Acid, Sodium Sulfate, Sodium Percarbonate, Sodium Metasilicate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Silicate, Protease.
