Origin and properties of the ingredients:
Sugar, starch and coconut fat are the raw materials for the sugar surfactants used. Together with coconut fatty alcohol sulphate, made from coconut fat and sulphur oxides, they form a combination of mutually complementary and reinforcing cleansing active substances with excellent fat dissolving properties and very good skin compatibility. The skin-caring active ingredients are extracted from the blossoms of calendula in a cold extract with the help of bio-alcohol.
 
Product feature:
Nourishing spagyric calendula essence in combination  with a skin-compatible surfactant combination and the warm scent of sweet orange.
The hand dishwashing liquid is a concentrated product and therefore very economical in use. The surfactants used, coconut fatty alcohol sulphate and sugar surfactant, are 100% biodegradable.

Ecology
Biodegradation:
In the manufacturing process of sugar surfactants and coconut fatty alcohol sulphate, parts are taken out of the vegetable raw materials starch, sugar and fat, which, however, remain fully intact in their natural structure. It is therefore relatively easy for microorganisms to degrade these surfactants very quickly and completely to 100%.

Sugar surfactants and coconut fatty alcohol sulphate are considered readily biodegradable according to OECD.
