Liquid silicone is a safe, natural byproduct of sand that doesn’t chemically interact with the fabric at all - it just carries in the detergent and carries away the dirt and stains. When disposed of, it breaks down into its three natural components – water, carbon dioxide, and sand. So every time you clean the GreenEarth way, you’re doing something good for both the environment and your clothes. Organize This!
