Ingredients
-
Sodium Bicarbonate:
Also called baking soda, sodium biocarbonate helps dough rise in
cookies and bread. In our application, it assists in delivering oxygen
bubbles to the surface of your coffee machine.
-
Sodium Carbonate:
Often used in toothpaste and baking German pretzels, this naturally
occurring salt is found in the hills of Wyoming and can be derived from
seaweed. It is a great cleaning agent that changes the pH.
-
Sodium Gluconate:
Used in dairy products and diet foods, this ingredient helps break down
and rinse away soils. It's produced by fermentation of glucose
(sugars).
-
Sodium Citrate:
Derived from corn sugar via fermentation, this salt regulates acidity
in the cleaning product. It can also be found on the ingredient list of
some of your favorite energy drinks.
-
Sodium Percarbonate: This is a key ingredient used in toothpaste for its oxygen based bleaching abilities.
-
Sodium Coco-Sulfate: A terrific foaming agent and surfactant produced from coconut oils, as the name suggests.
-
Alkyl Polyglycosides:
This ingredient is produced from the combination of alcohols and
glucose. These sugars are derived from coconut, palm, and corn oil. This
is a 100% renewable surfactant that would otherwise need to be produced
from petroleum products.
