If you travel a lot, you probably know the problem: where do you put that bottle of detergent in your suitcase? It takes up a lot of space, it is heavy and there is always a risk of leakage. Wax strips can be a practical solution for this!
What are wax strips?
Laundry strips are thin sheets of detergent, about as thick as paper. They dissolve completely in water and wash just as well as regular detergent. The izi-clean wax strips are vegan and biodegradable. They do not contain phosphates, fluorescent substances or bleach. A special detail is that they also have an antibacterial effect and offer protection against dust mites.
How do you use them?
The use is simple: place a washing strip at the bottom of the washing machine drum, add your laundry and start the program. For a small wash (less than 4 kg) half a strip is sufficient. For a full drum or very dirty laundry, use a whole strip. The strips work with all temperatures up to 60°C.
If you want to hand wash, dissolve half a strip in water and let your clothes soak for about 20 minutes for best results. Please note: the strips are not suitable for wool and silk.
Benefits for travelers ✈️
The biggest advantages of wax strips are their size and weight. They take up very little space and you can take exactly what you need for your trip. Also nice: you don't have to worry about leakage in your suitcase.
The strips are suitable for white, black and coloured laundry. They protect the colours of your clothes, even after frequent washing. A handy feature is that you do not need fabric softener - the strips make your laundry soft by themselves. The izi-clean wax strips give your laundry a wonderfully fresh cherry scent that lasts a long time.
Sustainable alternative 🌍
The washing strips are an environmentally conscious choice. They come in plastic-free, fully recyclable packaging. Because they are so compact, the CO2 emissions during transport are much lower than with regular detergents. The strips are also vegan and not tested on animals.
For whom are wax strips handy?
Wax strips are ideal for backpackers and those who want to travel light. Wax strips can also be useful if you regularly go away for a weekend or have to go on a business trip. You can take exactly what you need without lugging around a heavy bottle.
Tips for use
- Only handle the strips with dry hands
- Store them in a dry place, out of direct sunlight
- Wash your hands after use
- Do not use the strips in the dryer
- Wash light and dark clothes separately
With wax strips, doing laundry while traveling becomes a lot more practical. You save space and weight in your luggage, and you also contribute a little bit to a better environment.
