Unilever launched a new and advanced laundry detergent capsule from Dirt Is Good (also known as OMO, Persil and Skip) to offer a convenient, premium experience that tackles tough stains and delivers elevated fragrance. Touted as a "complete reinvention of [its] capsule architecture," Unilever's latest laundry innovation goes from three chambers to four and includes patented Nano-Power and Nano-Sense technologies. All of the chambers are designed to dissolve at the same time during the wash cycle, releasing fast-acting solutions for stain removal, whiteness and fragrance delivery that work on both natural and synthetic fibers. As such, these capsules eliminate the need for pre-soaking, pre-treatment or re-washing.
At the core of the formulation is a technology that builds a protective layer on the surface of the fabric from the first wash, and fragrance that's delivered in an instant burst and for lasting freshness.
What's Driving This Trend
