Natulim Oxi White Whitener (500 g) Review
Chlorine-free oxygen whitener, ECOCERT certified.
Overview
A sodium percarbonate booster with three enzymes (amylase, lipase, subtilisin). In water it releases active oxygen that lifts yellowing, greyness and sweat marks on collars and cuffs — without chlorine bleach. It's a booster, not a detergent, so it's meant to be used alongside the laundry sheets.
Pros
- Bleach-free and chlorine-free whitening
- ECOCERT certified with full INCI + CAS disclosure
- Works in the machine or as a 1–4 hour soak
- Refill pouches mean you keep the same jar
Cons
- Must be used with a detergent
- Small review base (65 ratings)
- Less effective on cold cycles — best from 30°C

A closer look
How it works
Sodium percarbonate breaks down into hydrogen peroxide and soda ash in water, releasing active oxygen that oxidises stains. The three enzymes each target a different stain family: starch, grease and protein (sweat, blood). It's the same chemistry as the 'oxygen bleach' powders sold in supermarkets, minus the plastic tub.
Results
Buyers mostly use it for greying towels, white shirts and bedding. Reviews are positive but the sample is small (65 ratings), so treat the average with a little caution.
Certification and packaging
It's ECOCERT-certified as an 'Ecodetergent', the full ingredient list is published with CAS numbers, and refills come in a recyclable cardboard pouch so you keep the original jar.
What buyers say
“Got a grease stain out of a T-shirt — I was worried it would fade the colour, but no. Perfect.”
“Used it twice so far and it looks promising. We'll see over the next few washes.”
