"Frequently Asked Questions
What is Purex Natural Elements detergent?
Purex Natural Elements laundry detergent contains naturally sourced ingredients and natural fragrance extracts that deliver the same great cleaning as regular Purex detergents. It’s available in several fantastic nature-inspired fragrances, which are also available in Natural Elements liquid fabric softeners. All varieties are hypoallergenic and free of dyes.
Aren’t detergents with naturally sourced cleaning ingredients usually more expensive than regular detergents?
Typically, yes. But Purex Natural Elements detergent actually costs the same or less than other brands. And with its biodegradable formula and natural fragrance extracts Purex Natural Elements products are an even greater value.
What is DfE, and how did Purex detergent receive special recognition?
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) Design for the Environment (DfE) Program works in partnership with a broad range of stakeholders to reduce risk to people and the environment by preventing pollution. Purex applied for DfE recognition by sending Natural Elements detergent formulas to the EPA. The EPA then worked with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) to review all submitted ingredients. The EPA only allows use of the DfE logo when a product is best in its class, and Purex Natural Elements was the first major brand in the laundry care category to be selected to receive DfE recognition. For more information, visit the DfE Web site."

Here's what I say: Like all their other detergents, Purex Natural Elements Tropical Splash does an excellent job of getting laundry clean. I give high ratings to the scent; it does seem to smell more natural, and therefore nicer, than other detergent varieties... especially since there's coconut, one of my fave scents, in there. The fact that it's better for sensitive skin is a bonus; I know people who need that from the products they use, so I can recommend this to them because I've tested it myself... and Purex prices get top marks from me.
One of you can try it for FREE!! Send me an email telling me why you'd like to try a greener detergent, and I'll pick a winner this weekend.
