The range contains plant-based stain removers, and bottles contain recycled plastic, and are recyclable.

We’ve spent time crafting and developing the premium liquids range which will now include Active Clean and Touch of Comfort alongside Persil Ultimate Aloe Vera. These products deliver the outstanding stain removal and cleaning technology that shoppers have told us they want, with additional benefits like odour protection, freshness and fragrance.”
