The Kind Wash offers natural washing, drying, and cleaning products. Their range includes natural laundry detergents, fabric softeners, and household cleaners, all crafted with sustainability in mind, making them a top choice for environmentally-conscious consumers. Soap Nuts are a natural washing detergent that literally grow on trees. The Soap Nut shells contain Saponins which, on contact with water, release mild suds and can be used as a naturally sourced alternative to chemical-based laundry detergents for washing machines.
Soap nuts are a natural alternative to washing power laundry detergent and can replace products like washing pods, laundry eggs, and soda crystals. All this whilst providing a cost-effective, gentle, and natural laundry detergent washing solution for your clothes.
The up to 15m high Soap Nut trees grow mainly in South India. In March and April, the tree is adorned with white flowers, and the ripe Soap Nuts are harvested in October. When removed from the tree, the soapnuts are sticky and golden in colour. They are dried, and their colour becomes reddish-brown. The nuts are then cracked, and the black kernel, which can neither be eaten nor used for washing, is removed, and the shells, which contain saponin (a natural detergent), are packed up in cotton bags.

Our Review
This is my first time using soap nuts as an alternative to traditional laundry detergents. The soap nuts came well presented in a large muslin bag, with smaller bags for laundry use. Living in a hard water area, I use between 6 and 8 half nut shells, which have proven effective in cleaning clothes without the need for fabric softeners. Soap nuts are a natural and cost-effective option, making them a great choice for eco-conscious consumers.
