End of Life
- The Dropps pod membrane is a biodegradable, water soluble film made of polyvinyl alcohol. When the film dissolves and enters the water stream in microparticles, micro-organisms that commonly exist in nature break down the PVA (polyvinyl alcohol) to water and carbon dioxide. As many as 55 species of micro-organisms (including bacteria, yeasts and fungi) that are naturally present in water and soils are capable of breaking down PVA! Research has shown that in river water, PVAs take no more than 1 month to break down into their component parts.
- Biodegradable product formula
Certifications
- Dropps has been a leader in the eco-friendly laundry detergent world since 2008, when their laundry pods received the EPA Safer Choice certification! Safer Choice helps consumers, businesses, and purchasers find products that perform and are safer for human health and the environment. To qualify for the Safer Choice label, a product must meet EPA's Safer Choice Standard, which includes stringent human and environmental health criteria!
- Certified cruelty free by PETA
Earth Friendly Features
- Traditional oxi boosters are usually packaged in high density polyethylene plastic containers. 68% of these bottles are not recycled, and they contribute to the approximately 275 metric tons of plastic waste that goes into our oceans and waterways annually! Dropps is a plastic-free, biodegradable, and non-toxic alternative to traditional cleaning products.

Product Care
- To use on clothing/fabric: Dissolve one pod in 1 gallon of cold water in a washing basin. Submerge heavily stained items in the solution, and let sit for 1-5 hours. Wash as normal. Note: Do not use on delicate fibers such as wool, cashmere, silk and lace.
- To use on carpets, rugs, upholstery: Dissolve one pod in 1/2 gallon of cold water. Apply enough of the dissolved oxi booster solution to saturate the stain. Let sit for 1-5 minutes. Use a white towel to blot the area, and repeat until the stain is no longer visible. Rinse with cold water and blot with the white towel until the area is dry. Note: Use only on water washable items.
- To use on hard surfaces: Dissolve one pod in 1 gallon of cold water. Use a towel, sponge or scrubbing brush to apply the solution to the surface. Wait 5-30 minutes and rinse clean with cold water. Dry the area thoroughly with a clean towel. Note: For tile and grout, we recommend reducing the amount of water significantly to create a concentrated paste.

Hi Connie! To use these on tile and smaller household surfaces, Dropps recommends dissolving one pod in a small amount of cold water to create a concentrated paste. Then using a towel, sponge, or scrubbing brush to apply the solution to the surface. Wait 5-30 minutes and rinse clean with cold water, then dry the area thoroughly with a clean towel! We also have a new product, Johnny Drops, that are specifically made for toilet-cleaning 🙂

I switched to this product to replace Oxi clean and it does not disappoint! I use it to brighten my whites and it really works well and is a much more eco friendly option.

I usually use a liquid oxi booster made specifically for whites. I used these in my white load with a dropps laundry pod and the whites came out beautifully. And the stains on the shirts all came clean.
