Euca Concentrated Laundry Powder
Verified206 reviews
Hands down Euca is the best – Far out, this is amazing! We buy this online and take advantage of their specials (great value for money) as we live in a regional area. Our experience to ordering, dispatching to delivery has been straightforward. Like most of the glowing reviews, it's a fantastic product! I have sensitive skin and react badly to synthetic fragrances/perfumes.… Read more
This smells fresh, nothing nasty, cleans well (even my front loader looks clean afterwards) and is an ethical business. Also, I've contacted customer service in the past and they give professional and timely responses. Thank you Euca for making such high quality products :)
Great product...... at a great price – The family has been using this fantastic product for a number of years (since 2010) - during the Geelong Water Restrictions....... I can say since then we have been using this product for all our clothes laundry. I was sad when our regular supplier stopped keeping it - plumbing supplier. I was lucky to find a company in Altona then noticed while… Read more · 1
shopping at our local Mitre10 and super cheap Auto that they stocked various items of the range, which is good to know......
I have recommended this to friends and family....
I love that this is an Australian Made Product........

Hopeful about results in future washloads, but just followed instructions to clean 8kg front loader first with 2 scoops of 20gm which I was told by Euca office that 20gm is a bit more than a tbspn. . (I’d lost the little paper measure cup they… Read more
include.) I’d also read in replies in reviews that it’s about 1 1/3 tbspn. So I used a bit more than a tbspn scooping twice, but disaster: soap suds oozing out of machine and floor flooded with big wet suds. Big cleanup. So be careful how much you use. I’m going to retreat to minimal amts for washing and only increase carefully keeping a watch. Maybe there’s American tbspns and Aus tbspn measure spoons in Australia - still, be careful. * it was about $12 on Sale, don’t have the receipt.
Follow-up · No residue on clothing seen, sprinkling it in the base of the drum (front loader) has not caused a problem and is quick and easy. Their liquid is great too, only it dribbles on your hand unavoidably when you pour it in the compartment, so I prefer the powder. The suds did not damage the floor. The scent is light, pleasant, can barely notice eucalyptus scent. Favourite choice!

In-depth reviews
Euca is the boss of Laundry Powder – I began my laundry research after my shirt still had a nasty smell even though I put a lot of liquid detergent and softener, and multiple tub cleaning with a cheap tablet bought on Ebay. I had tub cleaning regularly after 30 washes (my washer does have an app to track this), but my washing machine tub still had a nasty smell, and I don't know why.… Read more · 1
After spending more than 20 hours on laundry research, I found that my laundry is terrible because of the following: Overuse of laundry detergent Overuse of Fabric Softener Not rising properly because I use Eco mode in the Front Load washing machine. It will use even less water and shorter washing time with a full load Laundry & Fabric softeners have by products of animals, so if they are overused and not cleaned properly, they will get stuck in the machine/fabric and create a home where all the nasty smells. (Euca team, please correct me if I'm wrong as all of this info I got from the internet)
I've tried with another powder laundry (using powder to avoid by-animal products and cheaper), but the result is still bad. My shirt still has the smell after the washing cycle was completed, and the drum still slightly had the bad smell (after two tub cleaning cycles in the rows and brush tub cleaning)
After reading almost 200 reviews of Euca Concentrated Laundry Powder, I decided to buy 10kg the following day when I woke up.
It smells fantastic when I open the box and after my first full load with 20g of the powder. My washing machine drum smell has gone and my shirt now smells like new. The nasty smell that I never could get rid of them before has gone. EUCA LAUNDRY POWDER IS AMAZING!!!!!!!
It truly is the BEST washing powder out there!!! – I've been using a brand (with a B and Z in the name) for a very long time. In the last few years I felt it wasn't cleaning as effectively (even with some of the new product lines they bought out) so I've tried the brands recommended by Choice or Canstar. In all honesty, none of those have won me over. They either use strong synthetic fragrances… Read more · 1
(which I find too over powering) or they leave clothes smelling like they aren't fully clean. At times there's often small residue particles on the clothes so I'd have to put them through another rinse cycle (wasting water unnecessarily). Even the liquid versions would still leave the clothes not fully clean. I've also tried eco brands before, and while their ingredients are kinder to humans and the environment, they often lack functionality and tend to be ineffective with stain or oil removal. I know that most supermarket branded formulas are cut with fillers but at this point I had given up on finding any other independent brands that might be effective. I actually came on to product review (hoping the reviews might be a little more genuine than the "Choice" recommendations) and came across Euca as the top washing powder. There were enough multiple reviewers speaking highly of Euca that I was keen to at least try the brand. Not only is the powder free of harsh fragrances, it's also concentrated and doesn't leave any residue, so there's been no need for extra rinse cycles. Best of all, the clothes are fully cleaned without any unpleasant odours. With less toxic chemicals in the formulation it's much safer to use for households with children and pets. I purchased a bulk pack so was nervous that I may have wasted money but am nothing but delighted. I'm also happy to support a local company rather than a big multi-corporations as there's no doubt that Euca stand behind their product and care for their customer base (something you don't see with supermarket brands these days). It's absolutely worth making the switch... and much better for the budget if buying in bulk.
New family favourite – Since the pandemic, I've been really focused on making sure everything is Aussie made and owned, as well as effective and environmentally friendly. I've been using Omo the last 10 years and decided it's time for a change. I bought another Aussie brand liquid detergent, but I found it didn't clean my clothes as well as it could have. Euca has… Read more · 1
surpassed all my expectations, and laundry is super clean, smells great, doesn't have a slippery/sticky texture on damp freshly washed laundry that other detergents seem to have. I bought the laundry booster as well but found I didn't really need it. I've washed dish towels, towels, clothes, floopmop pads and everything came out clean and stain free. I used to have to add a scoop of laundry booster to the Omo to get towels not stinking. The washing machine drum is also sparkling after a wash. My baby has eczema and this hasn't exacerbated his itchy skin. If anything, he's itching less. Big tick from me. I've so used the lady dry powder to wash the toilet and it's very clean and doesn't smell hazardous like bleach. Bought the peppermint dish washing powder too and it's great. Dishes are sparking clean and don't smell chemically. I'll review that in a separate post. I will be changing all my cleaning products to euca.

The Best ! – I have been buying the 10 kg tub for at least 8 years and I wouldn't use anything else! It cleans all my laundry really well without soaking anything first, and one of us works in a coal mine! One tub lasts me about a year (washing for 2 people) so you couldn't find better value than that. My hot water tap is broken at the moment so all laundry is washed in cold water and it performs equally as well in hot or cold water. Show details · 3
LOVE MY EUCA! – I have been using Euca Laundry Powder for many years. It is Aussie made and owned. It is very effective and hasn't got a strong scent, is excellent for allergies & sensitive skin. Leaves all my washing clean and soft. As it is a concentrate & I buy the 10kg tub, it seems to last a very long time. Show details · 1
Long time user - Eucalyptus Laundry Powder – I have been using the Euca Eucalyptus Powder for about 3 years now. I absolutely love it and recommend it to everyone. I do commercial cleaning so I wash my cleaning cloths as well as my clothes. Living in north qld my machine previously got alot of mould in the rubber and I can't air it due to frogs getting in. But after using euca I found it… Read more · 1
greatly reduced the mould so its almost non existent and my machine is about 10 years old. I do put directly in the drum per the instructions.
I have tried the lemon myrtle one but i find eucalyptus to be the best. I used to buy direct from supplier but now my local mitre 10 has it so I buy it from there

Disappointing Product – Purchased the 10kg laundry powder concentrate after reading all the glowing reviews. Unfortunately my experience has been subpar at best. The powder smells nice and fresh when the box was first opened and I though great! Followed the instructions and rinsed the washing machine out with the EUCA powder. Once done, placed a load of washing in on… Read more
cold water, added the two scoops as recommended (top loader) and washed. Once finished, took the washing out, had a big sniff and all I could smell was wetness - no eucalyptus smell, or any for that matter. Checked clothes and saw white shirts were not bright and clean like advertised. Anyway, fast forward a few days later, I decided to add 3 scoops as I had gym clothes in the wash this time, but no difference at all. Same wetness smell, not clean smell and gym clothes still looked dirty. Disappointed, I tried again with two scoops but this time with warm water - same result....
Powder not disolving – Detergent is not dissolving, getting white shadow on the black garments and detergent stuck on the clothes never had this issue in the past, I haven't changed the way I do my my washing so that couldn't be the problem. I have noticed with 10kg tub, I bought this January very disappointed customer for not cheap detergent and not doing what's described. Show details

Not dissolving properly – I tried this out due to the overwhelming reviews online but sadly it doesn't meet my expectations. I've used different kinds of powder detergent but this one doesn't dissolve properly. The powder turns to a chunk of mushy white clay-like paste that stays in my machine's laundry detergent drawer. I use cold wash on a frontloader so not sure if… Read more
thats why. Maybe I should have opted for the liquid version instead. :( Any tips? I bought the huge 10kg basket.
EDIT - Added one star because customer service is fantastic. They offered to send me a new one as the one I bought might be a bad batch but I asked for the liquid version and it worked better because there is no powder to dissolve.
5 star customer service who really cares about their brand.
Hi , thats not good news, I will send a message to you so we… Read more

EUCA CONCENTRATED LIQUID – The liquid is far superior to the powder, which was substituted for free for the powder, as the powder must have in been the store for a long time and did not smell of eucalytus. But with the new washing machines it clogs the sensor and you have to run a cleaning cycle with a cup of vinegar when the glass of the door is feels grimy. Show details · 1
Long term user - very satisfied! – Re powder not dissolving - I'm a long term user of Euca products Washing powder, dishwashing powder, prewash soaker, stain remover a few others & the best & most economical shampoo & conditioner I've ever used! I have a front loading machine - never had any problem with powder not dissolving but always use warm or hot washes, never cold - perhaps that could be a problem with some machines? Show details · 3
Long time user – Originally my husband was sensitive to normal washing powder so we tried euca with great success. Also during water restrictions we were able to put washing water on our lawn. Show details · 1
Problem with dissolving – The website states that you do not have to dissolve the powder before adding to the washing machine. However, when I tried that the glass of the Bosch Frontloader was coated with Euca Laundry Powder. After that, I have always diluted the powder in a container with hot water. It gets the wash whiter then the Eco Laundry liquid. Show details · 1
After 3 years of use, we can confidently recommend this Aussie made product – Very economical, not tested on animals, ok for front loaders and it works well. Without fillers and perfumes that clog up your machine and cause skin allergies (our baby has very sensitive skin). We said goodbye to those high chemical nasty perfumed supermarket soaps and softeners and haven’t looked back. Yes you’ll still need to spray / scrub / soak that nasty stain, this is soap, not a miracle. Show details

I have been using this for 11 years and it’s the best product ever – Hubby used to be a mechanic and this was the only product that made them look brand new again. Fantastic on baby clothes with spills and a gorgeous fresh smell to it, without being scented. We love it. I haven’t found a piece of clothing it hasn’t been great for and no sensitivities.

Great product at great prices! – I use this laundry detergent for all my washing: sheets, towels, clothes from dirty gardening clothes through to quite delicate good clothes. Everything is clean and fresh without the colours or whiteness being compromised! Euca don't try to improve this, it's perfect! Show reply

Does more than other laundry powders – I use Euca Concentrated Laundry Powder for all my washing. I particularly like the way it helps remove grease and grime from hubby's work clothes. It is safe and natural and you don't need a lot to get a super clean wash so it lasts a long time. I use a lot of Euca products, always satisfied. Show details · 1
Perfect laundry powder – Have been using this powder since 2019 when it quickly became my staple. After trying a sample from Mitre10, the haze on my washing machine door was cleaned in a single wash and I realised the residue and excess suds my previous powder had been leaving. I’ve used it for cottons, delicates, darks, muddy clothes etc. and works perfectly, every… Read more
time, with fantastic results using an almost comical amount of powder compared to supermarket brands. Unlike other commercial detergents, it doesn’t leave a synthetic smell on laundry after the load is done. I love being able to just use half a scoop without thinking and get perfect results every time. I know that the product I’m using it great for my machine (same can be said for the dishwasher powder).
Bonus points for Australian owned and made, fantastic customer service, great pricing and performance. I can’t rate this product highly enough.
Great laundry powder. Leaves clothes smelling great. Brought a 20kg tub which has lasted for months – Wash all clothes with this laundry powder, including delicates. Good all rounder. Clothes are usually wet with sweat due to humidity in Darwin. No sweaty smell left in clothing. No issues with skin sensitivity. Show details · 1
It's true - we can't get by without Euca Laundry Powder – We started looking for an environmentally friendly washing product when we realised our grey water was causing harm to our blueberries. Euca has been a great find. No fillers and safe for our septic system. I really think it is the most economical laundry detergent on the market. We (a couple who live in southern Tas, but have regular interstate visitors) only need one 10kg tub a year! You use such a small amount for each wash. Winning!! Show details · 3
The smell is so fresh and clean the product is gentle for sensitive skin – The clothes wash well and smell fresh. This product is excellent for people with skin conditions and sensitive skin ( ecxzma )The price is affordable and the product is good value. Show details · 1
Good products – I have found Euca products to work really well and I like buying them in bulk. I only wish that their prices were cheaper then what you can sometimes get at Mitre 10 as I don’t want to shop around for the best price. I just want to go to the source and get the best price available. Show details · 1
Best ever! – Awesome laundry powder, great for my families sensitive skin, we haven't had a flare up since starting (3 years now). I also feel safe putting the laundry water on the lawn outside to keep the grass green, with no slimy, smelly grey stuff that comes from doing that with our old detergents. Well done Euca.

polish/cleanser and im sold. Plus the benefit of it being safe for grey water use! I'll be leaving a 3 lettered company for Euca as there formulas are way softer on the skin/body as well.
This ticks all the boxes for me – My washing ranges from heavy duty to delicate & Euca does it all. I have sensitive skin & I have had no problems, the powder dissolves well. I use half the amount of what I used to use with other brands. We love the clean, fresh, natural smell. I love Euca’s environmentally & animal friendly ethos & that it’s Australian. Show details · 1
