Washing Soda (Soda Ash) 100 g

How Washing Soda Powers Cleaning and Industrial Processes Worldwide

Washing soda, also known as soda ash or sodium carbonate, is one of the most widely used alkaline compounds across households and industries alike. This product belongs to the category of Acids, Salts, Alcohols, and Alkalis, which brings together reagents for pH adjustment, solution preparation and various technological processes. The 100 gram pack is a convenient starting point for home use, testing homemade cleaning recipes and small trial batches before scaling up to larger volumes.

The largest global demand for washing soda comes from the cleaning and detergent industry. The compound softens hard water by binding calcium and magnesium salts, boosts the performance of laundry powders and dishwasher detergents, and effectively removes grease from cookware, tiles and plumbing fixtures. In heavy industry, sodium carbonate is a key ingredient in glass manufacturing, acting as a flux that lowers the melting point of silica, and it is also used in the textile and pulp and paper industries to treat fibers and regulate the acidity of processing baths. In food production, it is applied in certain baking processes where an alkaline environment is required.

At home, washing soda is commonly used to prepare all-purpose cleaning pastes, descaling solutions, fabric fresheners and oven cleaners. The compound dissolves well in warm water at 40-60 degrees Celsius, which speeds up the preparation of working solutions. For household cleaning mixtures, 20-50 grams of soda per liter of water is usually sufficient, and the dosage can be adjusted depending on the level of soiling and water hardness.

Sodium carbonate pairs well with other alkaline reagents, such as Potassium Hydroxide KOH, which is used in liquid detergent production and saponification reactions that historically formed the basis of traditional soap making, although today washing soda is more often used on its own as a milder, more versatile household ingredient. Beyond cleaning and industrial tasks, the store's range also includes active ingredients for advanced skincare formulations, such as L-lysine and Alpha Lipoic Acid, allowing customers to cover several different product categories in one order.

Washing soda should be stored in a dry place inside a tightly sealed container, away from moisture, since the compound is hygroscopic and tends to absorb water from the air, gradually losing part of its active properties. When working with concentrated solutions, gloves are recommended, as prolonged contact with alkaline solutions may irritate the skin. Under proper storage conditions, the shelf life is practically unlimited, which makes the product convenient for long-term stock.

All-Purpose Kitchen Degreasing Paste

Washing soda 50 g

Warm water 100 ml

Liquid dish soap 15 ml

Lemon essential oil 5 drops

Gradually add the washing soda to warm water, stirring thoroughly until a smooth paste forms without lumps. Mix in the liquid dish soap and essential oil, blending until the paste reaches a thick, even consistency. Apply the mixture with a sponge to greasy stovetops, sinks or oven surfaces, leave for 10-15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water. Store the finished paste in a sealed jar for up to two weeks in a cool place.
