Bleach is designed to remove coloured stains as well as whitening dingy laundry, so it is best to use for your white loads only. All Liquids/Gels and Liquidtabs do not contain bleach, so they are great for coloured loads - especially the Colour & Style variants.
Enzymes are proteins that are very effective at breaking down food stains and residues. Non-Bio means no enzymes - it will still contain bleach if it is a Powder or Tablet.
Different detergent types contain different specialist ingredients. Here’s a table to help you decide what you can use for the best results:
Which form of detergent should I use?
Gels - Easy and convenient to use. They don't contain bleach and are great for washing coloured loads. Squeeze the gel into the dosing device and then place it on top of your load. Ariel Excel Gel was designed from scratch for outstanding cleaning for as low as 15°C. Great for a wide variety of stains such as chocolate, tomato sauce etc.
Liquitabs - Easy and convenient to use. They don't contain bleach and are great for washing coloured loads. Liquitabs should be placed on the bottom of the drum with the wash load on top. Great for greasy stains - for example, oils, makeup etc.
Liquids - Liquids dissolve particularly quickly. They are great for pre-treating directly onto stains, especially useful for those most difficult to remove. Great for greasy stains - for example, oils, makeup etc.
Tablets - Easy and convenient to use. Ariel tablets have been developed to get to work from the start of the wash. They can be used in either the drawer or the drum. If you want to put them in the drum, you should place them in the bottom, at the back with the clothes on top.
Powders - Can be dosed flexibly. Ariel powder should be dosed directly into the washing machine dispenser drawer.
