The Apothecary’s Oxygen Bleach is a breath of fresh air for the eco-conscious homemaker, and is a must-have multipurpose cleaning wonder. It’s a natural compound of soda ash and hydrogen peroxide, which packs a powerful cleaning punch, without the toxins found in ordinary household detergents.

Oxygen is nature’s cleaner. It's the additional oxygen atoms that grab onto some of the H2O in rain to form H2O2 as it falls through the ozone layer that make rain so special. Our own bodies use oxygen in a similar way to fight off disease and infection, manufacturing H2O2 in our cells. Here H2O2 has been used to fortify soda ash with oxygen, producing a powerful cleaner and disinfectant that breaks down quickly into harmless substances. It’s a safer, greener alternative to chlorine bleach, and a great dirt-busting ally for your laundry or general household cleaning chores.

Simply mix it with water to brighten white fabrics, wipe out germs and break down troublesome stains, and harness the power of pure oxygen.

Like all The Apothecary’s household cleaning products, they are compatible with grey water systems, kind to septic tanks and help keep pipes and drains clear. They leave no harmful residues, emit no noxious fumes, and they break down readily into benign, natural substances that are harmless to oceans and waterways.

Even our packaging is earth friendly! Thoughtfully packaged by hand in plain brown paper and 100% compostable bioplastic inners made from corn waste, with paper labels, so that nothing need go to landfill.

    Ingredients:
    Soda Ash Fortified With Oxygen
