Our zero-waste bleach alternative bucket is an eco-friendly option for heavy launderers and cleaners. We send you a full 5-gallon bucket of our concentrated oxygen powder, enough for an incredible 2,560 HE loads of laundry—the equivalent of 20 Oxygen Brightener Refills!
The price of each bucket includes shipping to your home and return shipping to our factory. Keep the box it comes in and send the empty bucket back with the included pre-paid shipping label.
Our Oxygen Brightener is a bleach alternative that acts as both a laundry booster and an oxygen cleaner. Use it to cut through tough stains and persistent odors. Add it to your wash cycle with our Laundry Powder for an extra boost.
We use only what you need to clean your clothes and your home: an unscented powder made from sodium percarbonate and washing soda.
All of our ingredients are MADE SAFE® Certified, Leaping Bunny certified cruelty-free, and vegan. We list every ingredient, including scents, on the front label so you can see what’s in your detergent.

People- and Planet-Friendly
People- and Planet-Friendly
We aim to make the best cleaning products we can with people and the planet in mind. “People- and planet-friendly” is our shorthand for that goal and the decisions and practices we make to support it. We use the terms “sustainable” and “sustainably” in a similar way to describe our products and practices.
We give specific examples to back up these phrases whenever we can, including factual descriptions of ingredients and packaging, company practices, and third-party certifications that hold us accountable.
Single-Use Plastic-Free
Single-Use Plastic-Free
Single-use plastic-free means that any plastic in the finished product is designed to be reused, not discarded.
While we design our finished products to eliminate as much plastic as possible, plastic may still be used in other parts of the product life cycle, such as the supply chain and manufacturing processes. For instance, raw materials may arrive at our factory in plastic shipping materials, and our team members use plastic gloves when handling chemicals during soapmaking.

Conventional cleaning products pose numerous health risks for people and the planet. We provide safer alternatives made with ingredients, materials, and processes that minimize negative impact.
