Origin and properties of the ingredients
Olive oil soap: Olive oil comes from centuries-old olive groves in Italy, Spain and Greece, where organically grown olives are processed using mechanical methods such as pressing and centrifuging. Saponification with potassium hydroxide produces the main ingredient of Sonett Olive Laundry Liquid for Wool and Silk. Olive oil provides the basis for a mild, replenishing soap. According to the manufacturer's description, its balanced fatty-acid composition, its purported beneficial and balancing effects on the heart and circulation, and the olive tree's seven-year growth cycle reflect a particularly close relationship between olive oil and people.
Rapeseed and sunflower oil soaps: These plant oils are saponified with potassium hydroxide to improve cleaning performance. Rapeseed, linseed and sunflower are among the oil crops grown for oil production in temperate Central Europe; the oils used are organically grown.
Ethanol: Produced by fermenting starch-rich plants such as maize and potatoes. It helps keep the soap liquid and improves the detergent's ability to dissolve grease.
Sugar surfactant: Made from sugar, starch and coconut fat. Its proportion is balanced with the soap content to keep the lime soap formed in hard water finely dispersed, preventing deposits on the laundry.
Special product properties
Pressed olive oil is made into a soap with cleaning, caring and replenishing properties for wool and silk. The sugar surfactant makes this soap-based delicate-fabric detergent easy to use even in hard water while retaining the characteristics of a soap detergent. The olive, rapeseed and sunflower oils and lavender essential oil are all sourced from certified organic cultivation.
Suitable uses
For delicates, wool and silk up to 40 °C, in the washing machine or by hand.
How to use
Pour into the machine's detergent compartment. Do not apply undiluted detergent directly to dry laundry, as delicate fabrics may discolour.
Dosage for a 4.5 kg washing machine
Soft to medium water hardness: 60 ml
Hard water: 90 ml
How long it lasts
One litre is sufficient for 17 wash cycles with soft to medium-hard water and a laundry load of approximately 2.5 kg.
Recommendation: Add 40 ml of Sonett Laundry Rinse to the fabric-softener compartment per wash. It refreshes delicate colours, helps rinse out detergent residue and smooths the fibres.
Hand washing: Add 15–30 ml to approximately 5 litres of water after filling the basin, then immerse the garments. Move them gently. Keep rinse water at approximately the same temperature as the washing water to avoid temperature shock.
Biodegradation
According to the manufacturer's explanation, soap made from vegetable oils reacts with lime in wastewater to form lime soap, neutralising its surface-active action within a few hours (primary degradation). Microorganisms then break down the lime soap into carbon dioxide and water (secondary degradation). Ethanol mixes freely with water and re-enters natural cycles within hours. Sugar surfactants are derived from plant-based starch, sugar and fats; their retained natural structural components allow microorganisms to degrade them rapidly and completely. Soap and sugar surfactants are classified as readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria.
