Laundry detergents with phosphates are not widely available to the public anymore due to environmental concerns, but they do help many cleaning products work better. Since our products are designed for heavy duty commercial cleaning applications, some do contain phosphates. Here is a list of our laundry products with and without phosphates:
Detergents with phosphates:
- HTD Heavy Duty Detergent (strongest detergent)
- Low Suds Concentrate (has a higher percentage of phosphates than others)
- Liquid Laundersol
- Lemon Lime Low Suds (lowest concentration of phosphates)
- Oxygen Dry Bleach
- ProBlend Break Out Alkali Laundry Booster
The following laundry products do not contain phosphates:
- Powdered Laundersol Detergent
- Lemon Scent Detergent
- Superior Laundry Detergent
- Slate Phosphate Free Laundry Detergent
- Chlorine Dry Bleach
- Liquid Fabric Softener
- Oxy Care
Can you provide samples? I’m interested in testing three products:
1) Low Suds Concentrate
2) Oxygen Dry Bleach
3) Lemon Lime Low Suds

Where and what is the brand name that can I get in smaller quantities for home use.
Hi Hector, sorry but these detergents are not available in smaller quantities for home use. The brand is not a nationally recognized brand name. They are made by a local manufacturer here in the New Orleans area.
Can you give a suggestion as to which phosphate detergent is best for a variety of items? Linens, clothing, etc. Is it preferable to use regular detergent and add the dry bleach, or do you advise one of the detergents? It’s for a mix– clothing, linens, etc.
Hi, either Liquid Laundersol or HTD Heavy Duty Detergent (which is a powder) will probably do well. If they are whites, you can use Chlorine Dry Bleach and Oxygen Dry Bleach as well. If they are colors, you can only use Oxygen Dry Bleach along with the detergent.
How many loads will the 25lb bucket wash?
I’m assuming you are asking about the HTD Heavy Duty Detergent. If so, I need to know how many pounds of laundry your washer handles per load, and whether or not it is high efficiency (HE)?
Two questions:
1) Concerning the detergents with phosphates: Is TSP the phosphate used for all of them?
2). Specifically for the HTD Heavy Duty Detergent: What percentage phosphate used?
Thanks in advance for your response.
Hi, the manufacturer will not disclose the exact ingredients of the product, so we can only go by information that is available in the SDS sheet. The SDS sheet lists “Trisodium Phosphate” as one of the ingredients, and the percentage range is listed as 5-15%. This particular manufacturer is guarded about their ingredients because they have had problems with competitors copying their products in the past.
No problem, I understand~~the information you were able to provide answered my question. Thanks again.
what detergent do you suggest for a linen company that washes Tablecloths, chef coats, bar mops, etc ?
HTD first, or if you want a liquid try Liquid Laundersol.
About how much phosphate is in the lemon lime low suds?
The SDS sheet for this product claims Trisodium Phosphate 1-3%, which is the lowest concentration of phosphates out of the detergents we sell that have phosphates in them.
