Downy Rinse & Refresh is being introduced as the brand's biggest innovation in more than 30 years and it shares a new way to remove tough odors from laundry. This deep-cleansing fabric rinse was made to provide a solution to consumers who say that malodor is a top concern—in fact, one in three households claims that malodor is their top laundry issue.
This rinse, available in Cool Cotton and Fresh Lavender varieties, was mindfully made to help remove odor-causing residues three times better than detergent alone. Sammy Wang, Downy Senior Scientist, says "This deep cleansing fabric rinse helps remove the source of odor-causing residues and hard water metal buildup that get trapped in fibers with a breakthrough, clear formula for softer, fresher and brighter fabrics."
