Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a laundry strip?
Good Juju laundry strips are an ultra-concentrated, liquidless laundry detergent that comes the form of a pre-measured, tearable strip. It’s the eco-friendly solution to the 700 million plastic laundry detergent jugs that end up in landfills every year.
How do I use Good Juju laundry strips?
Separate one pre-measured laundry strip and place it in your washing machine. If using a top-load washer, place strip directly in drum. For a front-loading washer, tear the strip in half and add to the drum.
How many strips should I use?
Generally, we recommend one strip per single load (3 – 5 kg) of lightly soiled laundry. For larger or more heavily soiled loads, increase the amount of detergent by simply adding a second or third strip. You also have the flexibility of tearing a strip into smaller portions for small loads, or when hand-washing.
Why doesn’t the laundry strip produce many suds?
You may be surprised to learn that the amount of suds produced does NOT relate to the detergent’s cleaning power.
High Efficiency (HE) washing machines recommend the use of low-sudsing detergent formulas, specifically labelled as HE-compatible. Good Juju Laundry Strips use a unique, low-sudsing formula that is HE-compatible, and works in all types of washing machines.
Other laundry detergents that produce lots of suds usually contain bubble-producing additives, which in reality do nothing to improve their cleaning power – these additives are added mainly for appearance purposes.
What is the shelf life of Good Juju laundry strips?
We recommend Good Juju Laundry Strips be used within three years of purchase.
Are laundry strips safe to use on natural wool?
Good Juju Detergent Strips can safely be used for hand-washing some wool fabrics, but we always recommend that you follow the specific washing recommendations of the clothing manufacturer.

Good Juju strips may be used for hand-washing if care is taken to fully dissolve the strip in water prior to adding the wool clothes.

Are laundry strips safe to use on moisture-wicking fabric?
Good Juju laundry strips are safe for most synthetic fabrics, but we strongly recommend that you always follow the specific washing instructions provided by the clothing manufacturer.
