Proteases target protein. Many everyday stains contain protein, including sweat, blood, dairy products and milky drinks like tea and coffee. Proteases break down the protein in these stains, making them easier to lift away from the fabric. That’s why proteases are crucial to the performance consumers demand from their laundry detergent.
Liquanase® Evity® 3.5 XL delivers premium wash performance on protein stains.
Built-in boron-free stabilizer
Boron is a mineral traditionally added to liquid detergents to secure enzyme stability. Exposure to higher levels may pose a health risk and many regulatory authorities set legal limits to boron levels in workplace air. This product technology ensures stability without boron in liquid formulations, allowing you to observe these limits and create a safer workplace.
Stability for multi-enzyme detergents
Enzymes are proteins and proteases break down proteins in a reaction that needs water. That means that in storage, proteases in liquid laundry detergents can break down other enzymes that have been added to the detergent. The result is reduced performance. This product’s proprietary protease inhibitor technology prevents this breakdown, so all the enzymes in your detergents can perform fully in the wash.
Performs well in cold washes
In many parts of the world, washing in cold water is standard. In the US and Europe, where doing laundry is one of the most energy-intensive household chores, environmentally-conscious consumers are choosing cold washes to save energy and to make their clothes last longer. That’s why we developed this product to give consumers high performance even at low temperatures.
This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.
Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.
Please follow the precautionary handling recommendations below:
- Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray
- Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing
- In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection
- IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing
- If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or a doctor
- Store in a dry place. Store in a closed container
- Dispose of contents/containers in accordance with local regulations
