Soda Ash / Washing Soda / Sodium Carbonate

Soda ash is baking soda’s older, gruntier brother. It’s a powerful natural cleaner but unlike its counterpart, it cannot be eaten. Soda ash, otherwise known as sodium carbonate, is fine with a powdery consistency whereas washing soda (often called soda ash) is gritty and harder to work with.

In natural cleaning and laundry products and with it’s high alkalinity (PH of 11) it’s brilliant for removing grease, grime and stains.
