Persil ProClean Detergent

⚠️ USE WITH CAUTION

High-performance laundry washing with enzyme-powered cleaning

Materials

Surfactants
Enzyme blend
Optical brighteners
Fragrance

Common claims

#1 rated detergent in Europe
Deep stain removal
Long-lasting freshness

Concerns / watch-outs

Heavy fragrance formulation in most varieties; optical brighteners persist on fabric
Some formulas contain relatively high surfactant concentrations that may irritate sensitive skin

Notes

Strong cleaning performance, but the fragrance-heavy and brightener-laden formula isn't ideal for a low-tox laundry routine. Persil Sensitive is a better option for those who prefer this brand.

Cleaner alternatives

⚠️ USE WITH CAUTION

Refreshing dry-clean-only clothes between professional cleanings

Materials

Dryer-activated cleaning cloths
fragrance and stain release agents

Common claims

Professional dry-cleaning at home
Safe for most dry-clean-only fabrics

Concerns / watch-outs

Sheets contain synthetic fragrance compounds
Not a true dry-cleaning substitute — mostly refreshes and deodorizes
