You try to feed the child only with useful products without preservatives - but what about the detergents that you use? How closely do you study the label on the bottle before buying? The means for washing children's dishes must necessarily be safe, non-toxic, hypoallergenic. In this article, we will examine what the powders and tablets for PMM and hand washing consist of, which means obscure names on the label and how to make the right choice.
Requirements for children's detergent
On the shelves of stores a huge selection of products that position themselves as "environmentally friendly product" and "completely safe for the child." But is it? Looking at the label, the user sees large inscriptions that call for using the gel without fragrances and parabens. Often this is nothing more than an advertising move.
Turn the bottle by the other side and read the composition.
What should NOT be in the composition of a child's remedy
- Harmful substances that are forbidden even for washing dishes of adults (phosphates, parabens, oil products, formaldehydes).
- Components that cause a tendency to an allergic reaction.
- Strong floral fragrance, a sharp odor of acetone, a solvent (better at all without smell).
It is allowed to use
- Whitening reagents that disinfect the dishes (perborate, sodium percarbonate).
- Means that improve the efficiency of washing in cold and hot water.
An important sign of product safety is flushing from the surface. When there is insufficient rinse, surfactants remain on the plates. As a result, substances get into the food, and then the body of the child. According to GOST, the surfactant balance should not exceed, mg / dm³.
Therefore, choose a remedy with surfactants derived from natural raw materials (cocoamidopropyl betaine, lauramidopropyl betaine). These components are more expensive at manufacturing, but qualitative.
