Highlighted Ingredients:

Medley® Pure 300L- Most everyday stains are multi-layered, with each element in the stain forming a layer. That means an enzyme's access to its target element can be "blocked." By clearing paths through the stain's layers for one another, the enzymes in this product boost one another’s impact. The result is high performance on a wide range of routine and familiar stains, along with color care and whiteness benefits. This enzymatic package targets proteins, starch, pectin, gum, fat, oil and grease stains.
Pristine® 100L- This is a phosphodiesterase that breaks down and lifts away body grime, which enables detergent to wash away this stubborn material. As an enzyme, Novozymes Pristine® is a natural and biodegradable ingredient that delivers removal and prevention of both malodor and discoloration on textiles.
Acusol™ CB-1- Multifunctional cleaning booster polymer can help to remove tough soils and reduce soil redeposition, also known as "graying." This product is 100% active, has excellent cleaning performance and is easy to handle.
