Laundry without detergent – magnesium makes it possible

No more lugging detergent home: Hexawash is a small pouch full of magnesium that washes your laundry clean, fresh and scent-neutral – entirely without harsh chemicals, for over 300 wash cycles. The pouch in the Patchwork design is a colourful one-of-a-kind made from mixed fabric offcuts. Simply pop it into the drum and wash as usual.

At a glance

Lasts: over 300 wash cycles – around a year for most households
Works everywhere: at any temperature, with hard and soft water
Doubly sustainable: the pouch is made from fabric offcuts of our beeswax wrap production – and the packaging comes without any plastic

Why you'll love it

Pure physics instead of chemicals: magnesium lifts the water up to a pH of 10.5 – exactly the level laundry loves. Dirt, oil and odours dissolve by themselves.
Over 300 wash cycles: one pouch replaces around a year of detergent – saving money, packaging and heavy lifting.
Gentle on sensitive skin: hypoallergenic and fragrance-free – ideal for allergy sufferers, babies and children.
Free from anything questionable: no parabens, phosphates, sulphates or surfactants – PFAS- and NPE-free, vegan and cruelty-free.
Scent-neutral instead of perfumed: powerful odour removal – a blessing for sportswear in particular.
Saves water and electricity: since there are no detergent residues to rinse out, you can skip the rinse cycle.

As easy as it gets

Soak (recommended): before washing, place Hexawash in water or the soak programme for 15 minutes – this improves the result. For strong odours, soak the laundry along with it.
Into the drum: simply place Hexawash with your laundry.
Wash as usual: choose any programme – cold or warm, the result stays the same. Cold saves extra energy.
Hang up: let Hexawash dry with your laundry after washing – ready for the next round.

Care and important notes

Hang up to dry between washes – air drying is best.
The tumble dryer does not harm the washing effect, but is less gentle on the canvas pouch than air drying.
When is it used up? New, Hexawash weighs about 150 g. If the pouch weighs less than 80 g, the magnesium is used up.
A nearly used-up Hexawash can simply keep working alongside a new one.

Frequently asked questions

How does Hexawash work?

The pouch is filled with magnesium pellets. In water, magnesium reacts to form magnesium hydroxide and creates an alkaline solution with a pH of 10.5 – the ideal level for washing laundry. This releases dirt, oil and odours from the fibres, which are then simply rinsed away.

Does the laundry really get clean – entirely without detergent?

Yes. The raised pH does exactly what surfactants would otherwise do: it releases dirt and grease from the fibres. Your laundry comes out of the machine clean, fresh and scent-neutral – without chemical residues.

How long does one Hexawash last?

Over 300 wash cycles – around a year for most households. You can tell it's finished by the weight: new, the pouch weighs about 150 g; below 80 g, the magnesium is used up.

What do I do with the pouch at the end?

Simply bury it in the garden: the organic cotton decomposes, and the remaining magnesium fertilises the soil. Alternatively, you can keep using it alongside a new Hexawash.

Is Hexawash suitable for allergy sufferers and babies?

Yes – Hexawash is hypoallergenic, fragrance-free and contains no parabens, phosphates, sulphates or surfactants. That's exactly why it's ideal for sensitive skin, allergy sufferers, babies and children.

What does the laundry smell like afterwards?

Neutral and fresh – without an artificial perfume scent. At the same time, Hexawash removes odours reliably, which is especially noticeable with sportswear.

Does it work with cold water and hard water?

Yes, at any temperature and any water hardness. A cold wash is just as effective as a warm one – and saves extra electricity.

Can the pouch go in the tumble dryer?

Yes, this harms neither the washing effect nor the dryer. For the longest possible life of the canvas pouch, however, we recommend air drying.
