The BioWashBall lets you wash clothes without laundry detergent. Instead, it uses special negative ion-releasing ceramic beads inside the ball to weaken the ability of dirt to hang onto fabric. The wash water’s pH level also rises in response to the BioWashBall. Higher pH plus negative ions help release dirt from clothing.
The BioWashBall can be recharged by placing it in bright sunlight for 2 hours each month. It can be once a day for 3 years without losing efficacy. Because the BioWashBall doesn’t use soap, chemicals or perfumes, it is good for those who have allergies.
