Bio/Non-Bio Washing Powder

What is the difference? I know Non-Bio is supposed to be better for people with sensitive skin, but does that mean it doesn't clean as well?

Re: Bio/Non-Bio Washing Powder

Bio has enzymes and non bio doesn't.

Be aware though if you use a non bio and then add something like Vanish then you are effectively putting the enzymes back in (as well as some bleach).

There is some really good info at UKwhitegoods about stuff like this.

Here

(I have no affiliation at all with this site, but it has given me few really good pointers in the past)

Direct quote from the website

There’s an argument that you get which says that non-bio is better for your skin, well, maybe in about 0.0002% of people or some other such insignificant odds. You’ve more chance of winning the lottery than suffering some form of skin problem due to a modern name-brand detergent as the science and testing that goes into these products is just absolutely staggering.

.......

Funnily enough I was recently informed that the UK was the only country in the world where there was bio and non-bio available. Amazing how the rest of the world doesn’t suffer the same alleged skin irritations isn’t it?
