There is a wide variety of laundry detergents in stores. Among them there are both budget options and at higher prices. However, not every product can boast of environmental friendliness and properties suitable for people with allergies to chemicals. Washing powder BioMio is designed specifically for the needs of consumers with sensitive skin. The product under this brand is produced by a Danish manufacturer and has won the trust of Russian experts.
However, the reviews about him are rather contradictory. Some argue that the powder washes amazingly, does not have a strong odor and does not cause unpleasant effects on the skin. Others, having tried it once, vowed not to buy such a powder again. It is worth understanding what the advantages of an eco-friendly laundry detergent are, why there are dissatisfied ones and identifying all the features of the product.
Powder general information
BioMio washing powder is available in cartons containing 1.5 kg of concentrated powder. For ease of use, each pack comes with a measuring spoon. For delicate laundry, the gel is available in 1.5L bottles.

The main characteristics of the detergent are:
- Machine and hand wash available;
- available as dry extract and liquid for delicate fabrics;
- suitable for cotton and synthetic laundry.
Features of the composition
BioMio laundry detergent was included in the top ten best laundry care products, according to the results of Roskachestvo. However, among these leaders, most do not belong to household chemicals with environmentally friendly characteristics. The BioMio brand boasts safe use even for washing children's clothes and is completely hyperallergenic.
To stay safe for any consumer and to cope with complex pollution, BioMio washing powder is helped by a unique composition:
- nonionic surfactants;
- zeolites contained in the powder in percentages from 5 to 15;
- anionic surfactants only of plant origin and not more than 5% total composition;
- polycarboxylates, also not more than 5%;
- enzymes;
- cotton extract;
- soap made from palm oil.
Among these components, the most harmful to human he alth and the environment are surfactants. But the BioMio eco-friendly washing powder contains less than 5% of them, which, by standards, is recognized as completely safe. Those ingredients that most often provoke allergies and other skin diseases are absent in the products. These include:
- phosphates;
- chlorine;
- perfumes;
- dyes;
- sodium lauryl sulfate.
In this regard, the powder is recommended for use in families with small children.

How to use
It is important to carefully study the instructions on the package before the first use. The concentrate is supposed to fall asleep in the compartment for the machine, marked with the number II. If the drum load is full and the standard wash cycle is selected, then it is enough to use 50 ml of concentrate, which corresponds to one scoop.
If hand washing is supposed, then for 10 liters of water you need to use a little less product, namely 40 ml. If the pollution is very strong,even with hand and machine wash, the dosage can be increased to 90 ml. The temperature must be set in the range from 30 to 60 degrees, depending on the type of fabric.
Judging by the annotation, it is not recommended to pour the granules directly into the drum, since if the contact action of the granules with tissues occurs, then white spots may appear.
