Users also noted that they are satisfied with the economy of its use, the concentrate intensively foams and quickly cleans absolutely any material of the dishes, even in cold water. The diluted concentrate is washed off easily, and the film and sediment do not remain. Tests have shown that only 5 grams of Amway Dish drops are needed to thoroughly wash 49 plates. The pleasant aroma of the product, which is due to the addition of fragrances to the composition, did not disappoint many consumers. It also eliminated unpleasant odors from sponges, towels, food and sewage.

AOS

Domestic product manufactured by JSC Nefis Cosmetics. The composition does not contain toxic substances and heavy metals, but as a result of the study, microorganisms were found that exceed the permissible amount according to the current standard in the Russian Federation. As for surfactants, they are not included in the product, as the manufacturer claims. However, the dishwashing detergent is effective, rinses off quickly, and does not cause irritation. Pleases buyers and economical consumption. It only takes 5 grams of AOS to wash 31 plates, but it’s worth the effort to scrub off the dirt in cold water.

The manufacturer notes that the product can be used to wash baby bottles, fruits and vegetables. The concentrate, when diluted with water, forms a fluffy foam that removes impurities. The composition contains silver ions, which contribute to the destruction of microbes and bacteria on the surface, and due to cotton extracts, the skin of the hands does not dry out and is protected from irritation. The plastic bottle is equipped with a narrow dispenser with a hinged lid. Not all consumers liked this solution, some noted that the dispenser was not convenient in practice. Efficiency is confirmed by user reviews, who note that dirt on dishes is washed off quickly. True, the consumption is much higher than that of the above-mentioned means - with the help of 5 grams, only 22 plates can be washed.

Ecover ZERO - the best detergent for washing baby dishes

The product received all fives in the research of Roskachestvo, the only thing that was rated 4.1 points was quality. Let's figure out why. The product is manufactured in Belgium by Ecover Belgium LLC. It is a safe dishwashing detergent to use, because it contains no toxic substances, heavy metals, and microbiological indicators did not exceed the established standards in the Russian Federation, as well as surfactants. The product can be used to wash baby dishes. When using, the skin of the hands will not suffer, all irritations are excluded. Washes dishes quickly, even if there is dirt. Ecover Zero is viscous in texture and forms a sufficient amount of foam. Consumption is 5 grams per 22.7 plates. The lack of opportunities to apply for the Russian Quality Mark is connected only with the fact that this product is of foreign origin.

Faberlic

The concentrate is produced in the Russian Federation. You can purchase the product from representatives of the Faberlic brand or in the online store. The composition excludes heavy metals and toxic substances, does not go beyond the microbiological indicators, as well as surfactants.

It is necessary to dilute the viscous composition in proportions of 1 gram per 1 liter of water. The quality mark of the Russian Federation has not yet been assigned to the FABERLIC concentrate, due to the fact that, first, representatives of Roskachestvo need to assess production, determine the level of localization of products, and only then a decision will be made.

FAIRY

A Russian product that is sold in free retail stores. After researching Roskachestvo, we can safely say that it is a safe product to use, because it contains no heavy metals or toxic substances. Surfactants and microbiological indicators do not go beyond the permitted standards.

Rating of the best dish detergents according to Test Purchase

We also recommend that you familiarize yourself with the rating of detergents according to the version of the test purchase.

What is the most economical detergent?

Test data in the laboratories of Roskachestvo will also help you choose the most economical detergent. For this purpose, a plate test was carried out. For this, it was decided to dilute 5 grams of the product in 1 liter of water and wash the dishes. Based on the test results, we managed to determine the top three:

• in the first place is a product from Amway with an impressive result - 49 plates;
• Fairy comes second with 30 plates;
• with an indicator of 29.7 pieces of bronze goes to SARMA dishwashing liquid.

To provide more accurate information to consumers, representatives of Roskachestvo conducted another test, which allowed comparing the number of washed dishes and the price of washing 100 items of dishes. The exact result was obtained by preparing the product in proportions of 5 grams. for 5 liters of water. The experts summed up the results of the test after a certain number of immersions of the plates in the solution. All stages of testing were completed, when at the end of the set number of lowering the plate into the medium, the dishes remained greasy. The data from the first study were slightly modified. The distribution of places in the TOP-3 of the most economical dishwashing detergents remained the same, but Fairy showed the best result - 35-36 plates. Another interesting fact: Synergetic showed the result of 24 plates in the first test stage, but the success was not repeated on the second test. The product washed only 10-11 plates of fat.  

Calculation of the cost of washing 100 plates

Are dish detergents safe?

The issue of safety when using dishwashing detergent is more relevant than ever. Our rating includes non-toxic products that do not irritate the skin of the hands. This allows us to regard the claims of manufacturers that “the gel for dishes is supplemented with a protection formula” as a proven fact, and not just a marketing ploy. The above-mentioned means comply with the norms of the current GOST in accordance with the pH level - 3-11.5. This indicator determines the level of acidity. The norm is harmless to humans - pH 5.5-8. In the markings, the data may be higher, due to the fact that manufacturers recommend protecting the skin of the hands with gloves. A conclusion is made whether the agent is safe for use or not after receiving data on the presence or absence of heavy metals, pathogenic bacteria in its composition. Fungus, mold, yeast are no exception. Even an increased number of bacteria of a non-pathogenic nature is a violation of the norms. The primary data of Roskachestvo's research were refuted after a repeated test for one position in our rating. In AOS, the number of microorganisms was increased. This is unacceptable in accordance with the adopted Uniform norms of the Russian Federation, and therefore the tool carries a potential danger. Ingestion of microorganisms is associated with a violation of the cooking technology, for example, if contaminated water was used. A polluted environment, lack of compliance with sanitary standards can also provoke this fact.

What is the importance of APAS and NSAS in the composition?

Surfactants can have a negative effect on the human body, and therefore it is necessary to ensure that their number is not higher than the norm. Surfactants are divided into 2 classes: environmentally friendly, effective nonionic nonionic surfactants and ionic. Anionic surfactants, which belong to the second class, are more effective when washing dishes. They form a strong alkaline environment. This can lead to skin irritation or redness. The ideal new formula of environmentally friendly cleaning products is still unknown today, and therefore manufacturers cannot boast of a worthy analogue of surfactants and continue to use them to improve the effectiveness of products. Concentrate labeling always contains data on the amount of surfactant. Please note that they should be no more than 5% if you have sensitive skin. But you should not be afraid of surfactants within reasonable limits. Anionic surfactants and nonionic surfactants have low toxicity, are well washed off the surface and do not accumulate in the body.

Conclusion

In general, our article allowed us to answer the main questions that consumers have when choosing a dishwashing detergent - is it effective, safe and can it be called economical. The test results of Roskachestvo showed a good level. Only the AOS tool fell short of the previous positive scores when re-tested. Choose only the best detergents for your home, and remember to read the label before buying. Share your comments on which product you ended up on and why.
