FABRIC SOFTENERS CAN BE TOXIC!!!

Check the label on the one you use and you will be sure to find a list of chemicals.

Here is a list of just SOME of the toxic chemicals found in commercial fabric softeners:

  • Alpha-Terpineol: can cause central nervous damage and respiratory problems.
  • Camphor: Causes central nervous disorders, is easily absorbed through the skin.
  • Chloroform: a carcinogenic neurotoxin preferred by Ted Bundy.
  • Benzyl Acetate: linked to pancreatic cancer.
  • Benyl Alcohol: respiratory tract irritant.
  • Ethanol: on the EPA’s “hazardous waste” list, can cause central nervous system disorders.
  • Ethyl Acetate: a narcotic on the EPA’s “hazardous waste” list.
  • Limonene: a known carcinogen that irritates eyes and skin.
  • Linalool: Causes central nervous system disorders and depresses heart activity.

By using a non-eco-friendly softener you are acting irresponsibly and pouring these toxic chemicals into our environment every time you use them.

Even worse than liquid fabric softeners are tumble dryer sheets, whose chemicals are heated and then shot into the air for you to breathe into your lungs. That “fresh-from-the-dryer” smell that fabric softeners impart to your clean load of laundry? Don’t breathe it in, if you like your lungs to function. That super floral smell is masking a seriously unhealthy chemical stench.

GREENMAN FABSOFT IS AN ECO AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY FABRIC SOFTENER AND IS AVAILABLE IN GANSBAAI.

IT’S YOUR RESPONSIBLE ECONOMICAL ALTERNATIVE.

GREENMAN FABRIC SOFTENER is a biodegradable and eco-friendly liquid fabric softener and rinse aid, which is a proprietary blend of cationic and non-ionic surfactants that impart a soft feel to garments, while helping to rinse away any residual detergents that may still be clinging to fabrics after the initial washing process.

GREENMAN FABRIC SOFTENER can be used in water with high salt and iron content with flocculating.
