This biological washing powder is designed to deliver a deep and effective clean, even at lower temperatures. Enzyme technology helps break down common stains caused by food, grease, oils and proteins, making it particularly effective for everyday family laundry. Suitable for use in all water types, the concentrated formula works well in both standard and energy-saving washes.
Made by SESI in Oxfordshire, this powder is vegan, cruelty-free, biodegradable and available as a refill to help reduce single-use plastic waste. The enzyme-based formula is designed to work efficiently at temperatures below 40°C, helping to reduce energy consumption without compromising cleaning performance. By choosing a refill, you can support a more circular supply chain while reducing packaging waste at home.
The Meadow Breeze fragrance leaves clothes, towels and bedding smelling fresh and clean after washing. Light and uplifting, the scent provides a pleasant freshness without overpowering fabrics, making it suitable for everyday use. This product combines strong stain-removing performance with a clean, fresh fragrance for a convenient and effective laundry routine. Also available as a Non-Bio Washing Powder alternative.
All SESI products are vegan, cruelty-free, and biodegradable, and their formulas are designed to truly clean while causing minimal environmental harm. The detergents are manufactured in the UK by an independent family firm.
Usage Directions
Pour the powder directly into the machine dispenser or a washball. Always follow the care instructions on the garment label.
Use the dosage guidelines as follows:
Low to normal soiling: 3.5 g to 6 g (approximately 3 ml to 5 ml) per kg of washing. In areas with very hard water, or for heavily soiled laundry, the dose may be doubled.
One heaped tablespoon is about 36 g. If carrying out a pre-wash, use one third of the total amount for the pre-wash and two thirds for the main wash.
Dietary and Lifestyle
Vegan, Cruelty-free.

SESI Refills is a UK-based social enterprise founded in Oxfordshire, which supplies sustainable detergents, toiletries and household cleaning products. Originally known as the School Ethical Supplies Initiative, SESI was started in 2006 in a shed at a local primary school.
Their products do not contain harsh or harmful ingredients, including chlorine bleaches, formaldehyde, phosphates, parabens, phthalates, optical brighteners, and other damaging chemicals. Their products are also safe for septic tanks and normal wastewater systems. They are an Ethical Consumer Best Buy with an ethiscore of 95 out of 100.
♻️ Closed Loop supply chain ♻️
SESI employs a closed-loop refill system, meaning that barrels and tubs used for distribution are returned, cleaned, and refilled. This process ensures that there is zero packaging waste from the factory to the consumer. Every time we order SESI products, they are sent to us directly from their factory using their own vehicles, resulting in a greatly reduced carbon footprint. With each delivery, we receive filled bulk bottles (that you fill your own bottles from to take home), which means your refills are truly zero waste!
In addition to cleaning detergents and household products, SESI also supplies food items and olive oil through a refillable supply chain. For example, they partner in a closed-loop supply of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, utilising bulk 20 litre tubs. These broader product offerings increase the impact of refill shopping by enabling more types of goods to be supplied to us through a circular supply chain and helping customers reduce plastic waste across more categories.
Through their refill model, SESI helps customers reduce plastic waste: they have reused or refilled over 5 million pieces of packaging to date.
