What are the differences between the different types of Daz detergents?

All Daz products are biological (i.e. they contain enzymes). Daz is available in powder, tablet, liquitabs and liquid form. Daz is great for your whole wash giving you brilliant whites and brilliant cleaning on your colours.

For best results you should separate your whites from your colours when washing. To keep your coloured clothes vibrant for as long as possible, we recommend Daz Liquid as it contains no bleaching agents - making it a better, more gentle choice for colours.

For a non-biological product we recommend Fairy.

Powders
Daz Powder is designed to be dispensed in the drawer of the machine. It contains an optimised whiteness system that is great for getting your whites brilliant white, while not being too harsh on your colours. New Daz still contains Mealtime Mess Magnets too, that help keep your clothes white by seeking out tough food stains in the wash.

Tablets
Daz Tablets are an easy and convenient way to wash your clothes as they are pre-measured, so they're ready to pop straight into the drawer of the machine. Daz Tablets also contain an optimised whiteness system that ensures your whites come out brilliantly white while not being too harsh on your colours. New Daz Tablets still have Meal Time Mess Magnets that seek out those tough food stains in every wash!

Liquids
Daz liquid dissolves quickly in your machine. It can also be used to pre-treat tough stains.
Liquids do not contain any bleaching agents making it a better, more gentle choice for your colours.

Liquitabs
New Daz Liquitabs come in handy single doses and pack in all the best cleaning power of Daz. They go straight inside the washing machine so it couldn't be easier. No mucking around, just great Daz results.

Should I put the tablets in the machine drawer or the drum?

Daz Tablets dissolve very easily and should only be used in the machine drawer. There is no need for a net or any other dosing device.

What should I use to wash my coloured garments?

We recommend separating your colours from your whites and washing them separately. For mixed-colour garments ("Danger Whites") - whites which have coloured parts on them - Daz Powder and Daz Tablets contain the revolutionary Dyelock technology that works to lock in the dyes and helps to prevent them from running onto your whites. For all-colour loads, we recommend Daz Liquid, which does not contain any bleaching agents, making it a better, more gentle choice for colours.

What effects can Daz have on skin? Do the products cause allergies or skin irritation?

Under conditions of normal use, Daz laundry detergents are not expected to cause any skin irritation or allergic reactions. Under conditions of misuse and exaggerated exposure involving prolonged skin contact with the concentrated product, Daz laundry detergent may cause mild, transient skin irritation reactions.

Skin Irritation: There are many circumstances in everyday life which may cause skin problems to the average person and are not related to the use of laundry detergents. They include, for example, illness, consumption of medicines, foods, or beverages, contact with plants or pets, etc. Exercise, perspiration, and/or tight clothing are also common factors which, either alone or in combination, may often result in skin irritation reactions.

Regarding Daz Laundry products, only after prolonged exposure to the concentrated material (as a consequence of misuse or accidents) they are likely to cause skin irritation effects, which are expected to be mild and transient in nature. When a consumer has been normally using Daz for a long time without experiencing any problems and there is a sudden appearance of a skin reaction, it is unlikely that the problem be related to the use of the product. Likewise, one single usage of Daz is very unlikely to be the cause of any skin problem.

Skin Allergies: True detergent allergies are very rare. It is unlikely that Daz detergents or any ingredients, including perfumes present in them would cause an allergy. Detergents and their ingredients aren't usually in contact with the skin at high levels for long periods of time. Thorough evaluations were done to make sure that Daz products and/or their ingredients, including perfumes, do not cause allergies.

What should I use for delicates such as wool and silk garments, with special finishes or care instructions?

We don't recommend the use of any Daz product for special care garments. Always read the care label instructions very carefully, and if in doubt, try and contact the garment manufacturer for their advice. For woollens and silks, Dreft Fibrocare (for machines) and Dreft Handwash powders are ideal.
