However the inscription found at the pots that were intended for boiling of animal fat with ash did not provide references of soap usage. Ancient Egypt provided many evidences of soap's widespread usage - from exclusive baths, to providing medicinal care for the skin and tool for more efficient washing of clothes. Biblical records from that time also talk about personal hygiene and use of soap and oil products. Roman Empire brought the use of soaps, oils and ash mixed gels to the height of popularity.
During that time both public and nobility used cleaning product regularly, and many legends surrounded soup which was by legend first discovered at Mount Sapo , where fat from sacrificed animals traveled down and was collected into pools of soap. The Invention of Laundry Detergent The use of enzymes to clean laundry, and hence the invention of laundry detergent, was introduced in the early 20th century by Otto Rohm.
Tide Clean Dave "Dick" Byerly began to work on a heavy-duty detergent in the 's, but it was 14 years before he created a prototype. The History of Laundry Detergent Laundry detergent has a long history , and formulations continue to improve.

A side effect of excessive dosing was damaging fabrics by washing powder components due to degradation of the fibres. It was realized that consumers should be enforced to rationalize dosing of washing powder.
The first energy crisis in illustrated the need to reduce energy consumption, for example by lowering wash temperature. Another problem raised by environmentalists is packaging. Washing powders are usually packed in cardboard boxes or bags made of PE film and they are useless garbage. Cardboard is admittedly easily biodegradable material, but due to large-scale production, its use results in massive deforestation.
The film exhausts non-renewable resources of petroleum and it is hardly biodegradable. Allergologists began to notice that one of the causes of allergies may be direct contact with substances contained in washing powders. Washing powder ingredients are not harmless for health in direct contact and in high concentrations, they pose high potential risks. For example, in Belgium and several other European countries, stringent standards were set for protease enzyme commonly used in washing powders; maximum allowable concentration in air NDS is 0.
In comparison, NDS for phosgene, a very toxic substance is 0. Storing washing powders in open packaging and putting them in washing machine dispensers resulted in dusting, causing non-conscious effects, such as skin and mucous membranes irritation. The s of the twentieth century was the period of first solutions based on the concentration of washing powders, which significantly reduced dose weight and volume used for washing.
As technological experience was gained and research progressed, concentration of active ingredients was increased to the super-concentrated level, the so-called super concentrated or super compact washing detergents. In doing so, the problem of packaging waste was reduced. On the other hand, increased concentration of hazardous and noxious substances caused increasing risk of irritation to the consumer.
Also, the use of the super compact washing powders increased the negative effects of overdosing. Hybrid hybrid: combining together two different formulations in the form of a twin-chamber sachet is a substitute for super compact washing powder that solves all the problems. Perlux a capsule Super- washing , which, thanks to hybrid technology combines the best characteristics of powders and gels for washing.
