How to Use

STANDARD WASH

  • Tear one sheet in half for a normal load, or use one whole sheet for a large or heavily soiled load
  • Place directly into the washing machine drum — not the drawer
  • Add your laundry on top and wash as normal
  • Works from 20°C to 60°C — cold washes included

▸ TIPS

  • Half a sheet is plenty for lightly soiled or small loads
  • For very stubborn stains, pre-treat the area before washing
  • Compatible with all machine types including HE and front-loaders
  • Do not place in the detergent drawer — always in the drum

Premium Plant-Based Ingredients

  • Saponins from Soap Nuts - Natural surfactants extracted from the Sapindus tree — one of nature's oldest cleaning agents. Gently lift dirt and grease from fabric fibres without stripping natural oils or irritating skin
  • Organic Coconut Oil Derivatives - Ultra-mild cleansing agents derived from organic coconut oil. They protect fabric integrity wash after wash, keeping fibres soft and colours vibrant without harsh chemical intervention.
  • Coco-Betaine - A gentle amphoteric surfactant from coconut oil. It boosts cleaning performance at low temperatures whilst being exceptionally mild — making it ideal for sensitive skin and eczema-prone individuals.
  • Decyl Glucoside - A non-ionic surfactant produced from corn glucose and coconut oil. Biodegradable, hypoallergenic, and widely used in baby and sensitive-skin formulations for its exceptionally low irritation profile
  • Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate - A mild anionic surfactant derived from coconut oil and fermented sugar (glutamic acid). Skin-compatible and biodegradable — it cleans effectively without disrupting the skin's natural pH balance.
  • Coco-Glucoside - A plant-derived non-ionic surfactant that delivers superior cleaning across a wide temperature range. Naturally sourced, fully biodegradable, and gentle enough for the most sensitive skin types.

Caring about the environment

By using these laundry sheets I feel I’m not harming the environment the way washing liquids and laundry pods/capsules do, I just tear the sheets into smaller pieces to make sure they dissolve fully. I’ve also stopped using fabric softener as I feel there really is no need for that either. Clothes wash and iron well.

Love the plastic and bulk-free packing

Love the plastic free packing, and the bulk-free packing. These give a good clean, are dead easy and mess free to use, and presumably not at all tempting to children, so there's no "keep away from young children" warnings.

Your Questions, Answered

How They Work

Do laundry sheets actually work?

Yes — and if you're sceptical, you're not alone. Most people switching from liquid or pods ask the same question. Our non-bio laundry detergent sheets are formulated with six plant-derived surfactants that lift dirt, grease, and odour from fabric fibres as effectively as conventional liquid detergent — without the plastic bottle or the mess. We're rated #1 laundry sheet in the UK by Mumsnet, tested across real family households over six months. They work.

How do laundry detergent sheets work?

Each sheet is a compressed, water-soluble strip of concentrated detergent. Place it directly in the washing machine drum with your laundry, and it dissolves completely when it contacts water, releasing cleaning actives that break down dirt and stains across the full wash cycle. No drawer, no measuring, no residue. The sheet is fully gone by the time your wash finishes.

Do laundry sheets leave residue on clothes or in the machine?

No. Our water-soluble laundry sheets dissolve completely in both hot and cold water, leaving zero residue on clothes, in the drum, or in the machine drawer. Unlike some powder detergents and certain pod casings, there's no build-up over time. In fact, because our formula contains no starch or clay fillers, there's nothing left behind to encourage bacterial growth or cause that unpleasant machine smell

Do laundry sheets work in cold water?

Absolutely. Our laundry sheets are effective from 20°C upwards, fully dissolving and cleaning at cold wash temperatures. Washing at 20–30°C uses significantly less energy than a 40°C wash, which is better for your energy bills and better for the environment. Our formula is specifically designed with low-temperature performance as a priority, not an afterthought. Cold wash with confidence.


Do laundry sheets work in all washing machines?

Yes our laundry detergent sheets are compatible with all standard domestic washing machines, including front-loaders, top-loaders, and high-efficiency (HE) machines. Simply place the sheet directly in the drum before adding your laundry. Do not place in the detergent drawer — the sheet needs direct contact with water in the drum to dissolve correctly.

Can I use laundry sheets for hand washing?

Yes. Tear half a sheet and agitate it in warm water until fully dissolved, then wash as normal. Half a sheet is the right amount for 3–4 pieces of clothing. It's ideal for delicates, woollens, or a quick freshen-up between machine washes. No measuring, no spills — just tear, dissolve, and wash.

Skin & Safety

Are laundry sheets safe for sensitive skin?

Yes our non-bio laundry sheets are specifically formulated for sensitive skin. Every ingredient is plant-derived, and the formula contains no phosphates, no optical brighteners, no synthetic dyes, no parabens, and no talc. If you've been struggling to find a laundry detergent that doesn't irritate your skin, our sheets are a genuinely different option. The non-bio formula means no enzymes either the most common cause of laundry-related skin reactions.

Are laundry sheets good for eczema?

Our non-bio laundry sheets are a popular choice for people managing eczema and other skin sensitivities. The formula is free from enzymes, optical brighteners, phosphates, and synthetic fragrances — the four most common laundry detergent triggers for eczema flare-ups. If fragrance is a concern, choose our Unscented variant for the most gentle wash possible. As always, we recommend patch testing with any new product if you have a diagnosed skin condition.

Are laundry sheets safe for babies and children?

Yes. Our non-bio formula is enzyme-free, fragrance-free (in the Unscented variant), and built entirely from mild plant-derived surfactants — making it safe for washing baby clothing, muslins, and children's bedding. For the most sensitive baby skin, we recommend the Unscented variant. Our sheets produce no plastic waste and arrive in recyclable cardboard packaging — a cleaner choice for little ones, and for the planet they'll grow up in

Are laundry sheets septic tank safe?

Yes  our laundry sheets are completely safe for septic tank systems. Because our formula is built from plant-derived ingredients with no phosphates, no harsh synthetic chemicals, and no artificial fillers, it won't disrupt the natural bacterial balance that your septic tank relies on to function. They're also grey water safe, with no ingredients that harm the environment when water drains back into the ground. A genuinely clean formula, in every sense.

Eco & Ingredients

Are laundry sheets better for the environment than liquid detergent?

In almost every measurable way, yes. Conventional liquid detergent is up to 90% water, meaning you're paying to ship water in a plastic bottle. Our laundry sheets are waterless and concentrated, arriving in plastic-free cardboard packaging that fits through your letterbox. No plastic bottle, no heavy delivery, no wasted water.

Are laundry sheets phosphate-free?

Yes. Our non-bio laundry sheets contain no phosphates. Phosphates are used in many mainstream detergents to soften hard water — but they're harmful to rivers, lakes, and aquatic ecosystems, contributing to algal blooms that strip oxygen from water. Our plant-derived surfactant blend works effectively in both hard and soft water without needing phosphates to do the job.

Are laundry sheets vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, our laundry sheets are 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Every ingredient is plant-derived or naturally sourced. No animal products, no animal testing, no palm oil derivatives. For customers who want to align their household products with their values, our sheets are a straightforward choice

Value & Usage

How many washes do you get from a pack of laundry sheets?

Each pack contains 64 sheets, which is 64 full machine washes, or up to 128 smaller loads if you tear each sheet in half.

Can you use half a laundry sheet?

Yes — and we actively encourage it for lighter loads. Each sheet tears easily in half. Use a full sheet for a standard or heavily soiled load, and half a sheet for a lighter drum, a quick refresh wash, or hand washing 3–4 items. Tearing in half effectively doubles the number of washes per pack, making our sheets an even better value.

What is the shelf life of laundry sheets?

Our laundry sheets have a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture. Store them in a cool, dry place away from moisture, as the sheets are water-activated and will begin to dissolve if they come into contact with damp. The cardboard packaging keeps them fresh and protected. Avoid storing near a sink or in a steamy laundry room.

Do I need to use fabric softener with laundry sheets?

You don't have to, but you can. Our laundry sheets clean and freshen clothes effectively on their own. If you want to add softness or a longer-lasting scent, pair them with our Fragrance Booster Beads added directly to the drum or drawer alongside the sheet. Traditional fabric conditioner is also compatible if you prefer it..

Do laundry sheets work in hard water areas?

Yes. Our plant-derived surfactant formula works effectively in both hard and soft water areas. Hard water contains higher levels of calcium and magnesium that can reduce the effectiveness of some detergents, but our formula includes natural chelating-compatible surfactants that maintain cleaning performance regardless of water hardness.

Brand & Trust

Are Simple Living Eco laundry sheets recommended by Mumsnet?

Yes, we were awarded the #1 spot on Mumsnet's Best Laundry Sheets list, tested by real UK parents over six months. The reviewer specifically highlighted our UK manufacturing, our non-bio plant-based formula, and our plastic-free packaging as the reasons we stood out from the other brands tested. It's the most honest benchmark we know of, and we're proud of it.
