Product features, details and benefits
- Performs well in cold washesIn many parts of the world, washing in cold water is standard. In the US and Europe, where doing laundry is one of the most energy-intensive household chores, environmentally-conscious consumers are choosing cold washes to save energy and to make their clothes last longer. That’s why we developed this product to give consumers high performance even at low temperatures.
- Stable in presence of strong chelatorsMost laundry detergents and softeners contain chelators to soften water and help with stain removal. Unfortunately, strong chelators can also remove the calcium ions that are crucial to an enzyme’s structural stability. This product has been developed for compatibility with strong chelators.
- Ecocert certified variant available
Pectate lyases target the stubborn brown stains left behind by the pectin used to give jams their jelly-like consistency and to thicken fruit-dairy drinks. Pectin is also found naturally in the cell walls of fruit and vegetables. Pectate lyases attack stains containing pectin by cutting pectin molecules into tiny pieces that can be removed with the wash water. That makes pectate lyases a must for laundry detergent brands aiming to keep pace with the global trend for diets that are high in fruit and vegetables. XPect® 1000 L is a pectate lyase that delivers high performance on pectin stains, even in cold washes.
