Simply put, they’re the healthiest, most convenient solution to clean laundry. Ultra-concentrated sheets of biodegradable, plant-based laundry detergent, our strips quickly dissolve in water to remove dirt, stains, and unwanted odors from fabrics. They provide a cleaner solution — for both the planet and the laundry room — with pre-measured strips so you don’t have to worry about messy liquids or powders and lugging around hefty plastic jugs. Instead, our laundry strips are compacted into biodegradable pouches.

Our vegan, hypoallergenic laundry strips use all-natural, plant-based ingredients — most of which are derived from coconuts!

These are gentle on fabrics and skin and, unlike regular detergents, contain no harmful toxins like parabens or phosphates. 

How can such a small strip clean an entire load of laundry?

Because our plant-based formula displaces dirt molecules, they are easily rinsed down the drain.

Our laundry strips successfully and completely remove dirt, stains, and unwanted odors from fabrics.

Unlike some alternative detergents, our strips fully dissolve in cold water, as well as warm and hot.  

Two strips make up a single sheet. Think of a chocolate bar (who doesn’t love a chocolate analogy?).   

You eat a square of chocolate if you want a little nibble. You eat the whole bar if you need that sweet fix. Our laundry sheets are very similar. You can tear off a strip for a smaller load or use an entire sheet - two strips – for a larger load.  That simple!  

 

In a word, yes.

Traditional laundry detergent brands often contain harmful chemicals which can cause all sorts of negative health consequences — ranging from skin irritation to carcinogenicity.

Regular detergent comes with a veritable laundry list of ingredients to avoid.

In fact, the State of New York has just enacted a limit on the use of potentially cancer-causing chemical 1,4-Dioxane, which is found in many traditional detergents.  

 Additional common ingredients, irritants, and toxins that you WON’T find in SaltyLama:  

phosphates, formaldehyde, dyes, chlorine bleach, sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), ammonium sulfate, ammonia, nonylphenol ethoxylate, and phenols. If you see any of those ingredients, the product is harmful to human, environmental, and aquatic health. 

And we’re just talking about liquid detergent itself being harmful for humans.

We haven’t even touched on the environmental impacts of using all that plastic or shipping heavier products all over the globe.  

SaltyLama’s laundry strips fully break down in your laundry load without introducing microplastics or harmful chemicals.

The same can’t be said for pods which are highly concentrated pouches of regular detergent. To be clear: pods are toxic, and strips are not.

Studies have shown that up to 75% of the plastic film in laundry pods does not fully break down, which means it enters our water supply.

Ask any user of pods – if they use cold water to wash their clothes, they often find a gloopy, gross wad of undissolved plastic in their supposedly clean clothes.  

 On the other hand, laundry strips don’t use any plastic — not even in the packaging — and are a safer alternative for the environment, your clothes, and your health.

And they perform just as well, if not better!

While we think suds equals clean, this isn’t true.

All those bubbles are a marketing scheme dreamed up by Madison Avenue and adopted by every major brand in the 1960's. There is actually no correlation between suds and cleaning power.

They’reliterally there just for appearance purposes only. Our laundry detergent is effective and efficient without the chemically produced and irrelevant bubbles.

In fact, many High Efficiency (HE) washing machine manufacturers recommend the use of lower sudsy detergent formulations that are specifically designated as HE-compatible.

And you guessed it, that means SaltyLama laundry strips.

How does three years sound? Amazing, right?

Our products last far longer than the 6-12 months recommended by conventional liquid and powder detergents.

So, go on and pick up the four-pack of our biggest box with 102 sheets – you've got nothing to lose and plenty of money to save.  

Since our laundry strips are biodegradable, they are perfectly safe for septic and grey water.

This makes SaltyLama a great option for smaller living scenarios like boats and RVs. 

YES! In SECONDS.

In fact, SaltyLama is so effective because it dissolves immediately, ensuring all the laundry gets a good and thorough washing.  

You might discover that if you use other branded laundry strips they don’t dissolve. That’s because they use corn starch.

Our coconut-based formula clumps far less. You never have to worry about our laundry strips not dissolving.

You don’t have to be careful about where you place the strip or how you place it. You don’t have to use a special temperature or setting.

Our laundry strips work both in the drum and the detergent compartment. You can use it in delicate or sanitary settings. Hot or cold.
