Laundry Paste Concentrate Bar
Easy to use! Simply add the bar to a gallon of water and let it dissolve. It makes a gallon of liquid laundry detergent! Cut the bar into small pieces to make the amount of liquid that works for your chosen container. Use one ounce of liquid per load. That is less than $0.20 per load!
Laundry Paste Concentrate is a solid bar of laundry soap ingredients you dissolve to make the best zero waste laundry detergent at home. Pair with our natural Stain Remover Stick for even more cleaning power on the oops moments in life.
- Leaping Bunny certified cruelty free laundry detergent.
- The Environmental Working Group (EWG.org) gave our laundry soap an ‘A’ rating for consumer safety.
- The laundry bar packaging is plastic-free and can be recycled or home composted.
- No optical brighteners = safe for military fatigues. (If you served in the armed forces, we are grateful for your service and that you made it home from battle.)
INGREDIENTS
coconut & olive oils, soap nuts liquid, yucca root powder, baking soda, salt, rosemary oleoresin & love!
HOW TO USE
The laundry detergent bar MUST be dissolved in water first! But no real effort is required. Just drop the bar into water and let it dissolve overnight.
Use regular tap water. No hot water, no stirring or mixing required.
Each detergent bar dissolves to make ONE GALLON of liquid laundry soap giving you 128+ loads of laundry, depending on your laundry load size and stink. That is less than $0.20 per load!
If you can handle dissolving sugar in water, you can make this refillable laundry liquid. Our Laundry Bar is a concentrated paste-to-liquid formulation you dissolve at home by placing the bar (or a piece of the bar) into a container of your choice and fill that container with water. That’s all it takes.
PRODUCT INFO
CUSTOMIZE THE AMOUNT OF REFILLABLE LAUNDRY DETERGENT YOU MAKE:
You do NOT need to dissolve the entire bar of Laundry Concentrate all at one time. The entire laundry bar dissolves to make one gallon of liquid laundry soap. That might be too much to lift or even fit in the container you are starting with.
Simply cut the laundry bar into 4 equal parts and each piece can be dissolved into 32 ounces of water. TIP: 1 Liter (32 ounces) of liquid laundry detergent is a much easier amount to lift and pour!
Store the unused pieces in a container to keep them dry. Shelf life for the undissolved pieces is > 2 years. After you have dissolved the laundry concentrate, we recommend you use the liquid laundry soap within 6 months.
CONTAINER CHOICES:
Any container will do! Don’t over think it. You choose the best laundry detergent dispenser that works for you.
The best is to reuse your old laundry jug once it is empty. Plastic laundry jugs are strong and usually have a handle with a build in measuring cap.
Want a prettier container or don’t have an empty laundry jug?
You can use a mason jar, juice bottle, water jug…honestly, any container that fits easily in your hand for you to dispense the zero waste liquid laundry detergent. You only need 1-2 ounces (or less!) of liquid per load, so choose a container that is easy to pour a small amount from.
Further down is more to read about how much liquid to use per load.
Any container that holds water will do. Just get started. Don’t wait for the perfect container before you start on your journey of using plastic-free laundry detergent. Start eliminating plastic laundry bottles from your life now and tweak the container, if needed, as you go. The right container to start dissolving the laundry soap bar in could be an empty bottle of orange juice, mayonnaise, or pasta sauce; the options are endless.
Think of all the containers you put into your recycling bin. Start there and choose something that is easy to hold and pour from. Your plastic-free laundry routine is more about refilling your container, not just about using a non-plastic container.
CHOOSE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU:
It’s about time you get to choose a laundry container that works for you, your hands, your ability to lift, your shelf space, or if you just want a beautiful look for your laundry room.
We provide you with the best eco-friendly laundry detergent, made with concentrated effective, natural ingredients and you get to decide what you dissolve it in. This plastic free laundry detergent laundry alternative works like your current liquid laundry product, just without the chemicals and plastic bottle waste.
Choosing your own container is a great benefit you do not get from your current brand.
Going plastic-free is great but reusing plastic first is even better.
Don’t buy something new when you already have something that will work. For instance, if you start with an empty 32-ounce orange juice bottle, you will first cut the Laundry Concentrate bar into 4 equal parts and dissolve only one part in that bottle with 32 ounces of water.
Plenty of customers, including our company founder, dissolve the entire bar into a gallon container and from that refills a smaller, more manageable bottle to easily dispenser the one-ounce of laundry liquid.
It’s much easier to pour one-ounce of liquid into your washing machine from a smaller bottle than it is to pour from a gallon jug. A sustainable laundry routine starts with the ability to stop buying disposable containers. Here’s where you start refilling using a environmentally friendly laundry detergent and stop disposing.

PRO TIP: Do not overstuff your washing machine. All washing machine manufacturers recommend:
- Clothes should be able to move around easily inside the washer.
- Do not fill the tub more than three-quarters full. This will allow the clothes to move around freely and get evenly clean.
- For a front-load washing machine, pile the clothes up high, but don’t cram them past the last row of holes closest to the door at the front.
- When washing a large load of laundry, it’s better to split it into two smaller loads. Not only will this be easier on your washing machine, but it will also save you time in the long run.
If you’re like most people, you probably stuff as many clothes as possible into your washing machine in order to save time and energy.
However, this isn’t the best way to get your clothes clean. In fact, overloading your washer can actually damage your clothes and make them dirtier because there is inadequate space for them to rinse properly.
So next time you’re tempted to overload your washing machine, remember that less is more.
