Wondering Why We Are Not Calling This Product "Natural" Anymore? When we introduced our phospahte-free and chlorine-free Automatic Dishwashing Powder we knew there were two ingredients that were not naturally derived . One was a petroleum-based surfactant and the other a petroleum-based, non-toxic polymer. We felt then, and now, that the environmental advantages of a phosphate-free and chlorine-free autodish product outweighed the disadvantage of including a petroleum-derived ingredient. In 2004 we changed the surfactant and the polymer to what we believed were Natural (plant-derived) alternatives. After packaging was printed, we learned that the non-toxic polymer, in fact, was not replaced by a Natural ingredient. We also learned that the non-toxic polymer is not readily biodegradable. Therefore, we had to remove these claims from our package. We also changed the "No petroleum-derived ingredients" claim to "No petroleum derived cleaners" to acknowledge that the new surfactant is plant-derived although the non-toxic polymer is not.
We have been working hard on replacing the non-toxic polymer and restoring our Natural and Biodegradable claims. We need to ensure that the excellent product performance is maintained and have gone through several formulations trying to maintain performance while using more natural and biodegradable ingredients. Once we are able to do this, we will again add these claims back on our packaging. We apologize for the confusion.
