Sonett's Ecological Laundry Principles:

• Products are 100% biodegradable, decomposing completely into natural substances in water within hours to days.

• Sonett refuses to use ingredients harmful to the environment and human health.

• Raw materials used in production come from bio-dynamic or organic agriculture or free collection.

• Water used in production is bio-dynamically rhythmized, and Sonett products are enriched with mixtures of energetically powerful herbs and essences of precious stones and metals.

• Sonett is the only eco-detergent manufacturer holding two eco-certificates.

For softeners, as well as detergents, SONETT limits itself to essential and acceptable ingredients, avoiding the use of fillers, phosphates, and other petroleum-based softeners such as NTA (nitrilotriacetate) and EDTA (ethylene-diamine-tetraacetate). The origin and properties of individual components such as Zeolite A - the main part of the softener, is made from two readily available raw materials: sodium silicate and sodium aluminate, which are common clay minerals.

This silicate works on the principle of ion exchange, capturing calcium and magnesium ions that cause water hardness, thus softening the water for washing with a detergent based on pure vegetable soap. Soda, made from lime and table salt, creates a chemical compound with calcium present in the water, removing part of the hardness-causing substances from the washing water. Citrate, a salt of citric acid obtained by fermenting sugar byproducts like molasses, binds calcium even at lower temperatures.

Biological Degradability Zeolite A is a mineral insoluble in water, similar to sand, that settles as a solid substance in sewage sludge without needing further breakdown. Soda, also mineral in nature, does not require further breakdown. Citric acid, as an organic substance, is completely broken down into carbon dioxide and water within 2-3 days.
