Dri Pak Soda Crystals are part of the Dri-Pak Clean and Natural range. Natural soda crystals, also known as washing soda, are not to be confused with caustic soda. Before the advent of detergents, it was the main product used for both household cleaning and laundry.

Soda crystals are ideal for removing grease and dirt, making them a true natural multi-purpose cleaner. If you’re immersing your hands in them for any length of time, it's best to wear rubber gloves. They’re DEFRA approved for the prevention of 'foot & mouth' disease, and are also suitable for septic tanks.

Some uses for soda crystals as an eco friendly cleaning agent around the home include:

  • Removing burnt-on residue in pots and pans
  • Helping keep sinks and drains fresh and blockage free
  • Removing moss and algae from patios
  • As a floor cleaner with natural disinfecting properties

Using soda crystals for laundry and washing machines

Soda crystals can also be used to soften the water in your washing machine. This means you'll need less detergent – saving you money – as well as helping remove stains. It will also help make your clothes softer. With regular use, Dri Pak Soda Crystals will also help keep your washing machine free of limescale and detergent build up.

Read our article on how to clean with soda crystals for our top tips for using soda crystals as a natural cleaner and laundry aid.

Dri-Pak produces a range of traditional household cleaning and laundry products that are incredibly versatile and do not contain any harmful chemicals, enzymes or phosphates. Dri Pak washing soda is part of the range of natural all purpose cleaning products available at Big Green Smile.

I use his product (chemical name: sodium carbonate heptahydrate)mainly as a cleaner for tarnished silver by adding some aluminium foil to a very hot solution of the crystals and immediately immersing the tarnished item. Within seconds the silver is gleaming! This is an old method, which does not harm the silver, unlike abrasive or polishing methods and relies on a well-known chemical reaction.
I also use the crystals as an effective drain cleaner.
