Synbiotic laundry detergent

Name: Synbiotic laundry detergent
Brand: HeiQ

Microbial laundry care for deep fiber cleaning and lasting freshness

We support laundry detergent formulators in entering microbial laundry care with our patented synbiotic detergent solutions. Synbiotics combine probiotics and prebiotics. Prebiotics activate beneficial microorganisms, enabling enzyme production that breaks down organic residues within textile fibers. Our probiotics can continue to support soil, odor, and allergen breakdown for up to 5 days after the wash cycle.

The science behind synbiotics in laundry detergents

In laundry detergents, synbiotics combine probiotics and prebiotics to support biological breakdown of organic residues within textile fibers. During washing, prebiotics activate the probiotics, which begin producing enzymes. After the wash cycle, probiotics can remain active on fabrics and continue enzyme production, supporting soil and odor management between washes.

Once deployed, probiotics start producing enzymes that break down organic dirt and digest it.
