4. Calgon Hygiene Plus

Millions of bacteria multiply in your washing machine with every wash. Bacteria can multiply particularly well at low temperatures and short wash cycles. Calgon Hygiene + is the first water softener that not only protects your washing machine from limescale deposits, but also removes 99.9% of bacteria in the machine - for perfect results. Because hygienically clean laundry starts with a clean washing machine. 

5. Calgon 4in1 gel

80% of German households have medium-hard to hard water. The harder your water is, the more limescale it contains, which is deposited in your washing machine. Limescale residues collect in the machine with every wash cycle. Over time, this can cause heating elements to overheat, hoses to clog and the drum to become harder to turn. Calgon's liquid Power Gel helps protect your machine from this damage by preventing limescale build-up. Less limescale not only means less problems and damage to your washing machine, but also less energy consumption. Calgon's 4in1 Power formula also helps keep your machine clean from odour-causing particles. It removes detergent residues, clothing fibres and dirt. Unsightly soap residues are also removed with the effective 4in1 formula. These residues can be causes of bad odours in your washing machine. Calgon 4in1 Power Gel can be used with every wash to protect and clean all the important working parts of your washing machine that come into contact with water. Use the liquid gel to remove limescale together with conventional detergent. Add it to the main wash compartment in addition to the detergent and dose the detergent as for soft water, this is the lowest dosage. 

6. Nikwax Duo Pack: Tech Wash & TX.Direct Wash-In

Duo Pack with 300 ml Tech Wash and 300 ml TX Direct Wash-In. If we work hard, we sweat. The evaporation of sweat has a cooling effect and we feel comfortable. But when it rains, we don't want to get wet. So we wear waterproof outerwear to keep us dry. The waterproof fabric must be designed to allow moisture to pass through or' breathe' during evaporation; otherwise our sweat cannot evaporate, resulting in us overheating and getting wet from condensation. In addition, if the outer fabric of your garment absorbs water and' soaks', the breathability is reduced, which makes you feel clammy and damp. Nikwax Tech Wash refreshes the permanently water-repellent protection (DWR), prevents water absorption, maintains breathability and keeps you pleasantly dry. Your rainwear could absorb water just because it's dirty. Try cleaning with Nikwax Tech Wash first. In the case of relatively fresh soiling or recent impregnation, the permanent water-repellent capacity (DWR) is revitalised by cleaning alone.
Once the clothing has been worn intensively, you must add the Nikwax TX. Direct DWR protection with Nikwax Tech Wash after cleaning.
