Arm & Hammer Just Launched Laundry Detergent Sheets For Less Plastic Waste — And Victoria Justice Is Fully On Board
The first major brand in Amazon’s sheet-detergent category offers a more environmentally conscious clean.
Whether you find traditional liquid laundry detergent messy and annoying to handle or you’ve heard the shocking stat that only a small fraction of those big plastic jugs are actually getting recycled, Arm & Hammer’s new Power Sheets Laundry Detergent should probably be on your radar. The concentrated detergent sheets come in a compact, recyclable cardboard package, which means less plastic waste (and no more messy measurements). The sheets have already earned some celebrity endorsement by way of Victoria Justice. The actress and singer recently partnered with Arm & Hammer as an extension of her environmental advocacy.
If you’re looking to update your laundry routine, here’s what you should know about the brand’s latest innovation.
How Do They Work?
The pre-measured, perforated sheets have an ultra-concentrated formula that features the same type of heavy-hitting ingredients as Arm & Hammer’s tried-and-true liquid detergent — sans the liquid and plastic packaging. Add anywhere from half a sheet to two whole sheets to your wash depending on load size and level of dirtiness. They’re ideal to use even on a cold cycle, as the brand says the sheets feature “Quick Dissolve Technology” (so you can even cut down on your hot water usage for more energy efficiency).
With a thoughtful design from the sheets down to the packaging, Arm & Hammer Power Sheets offer some notable features that can help make doing laundry a little easier on the environment. Some highlights include:
- No plastic bottle waste
- Liquid-free design and compact packaging for less weight and more efficient shipping
- Recyclable cardboard package
- Effective even in cold-water washes
Speaking of her partnership with the brand, Justice recently said in a press release: “It's important for me to align with brands that are committed to reducing plastic bottle waste. ARM & HAMMER™ Power Sheets Laundry Detergent plays a vital role in doing that while also delivering effective cleaning performance.
What Are Reviewers Saying?
Though Arm & Hammer Power Sheets are relatively new to the Amazon party, they’ve already racked up a healthy 400+ reviews with a notable 4.5-star rating overall. Here’s what some verified buyers shared:
“I was skeptical when I got this product, but it is now one of my favorite laundry products. I’ve been trying to reduce my use of plastics, so this was perfect for me [...]” — Dani
“Sheets are easier and more efficient to use than laundry detergent in a heavy plastic jug that ends up in a landfill. They're lightly scented with no heavy perfume smells. It does produce suds, though not overly sudsy, so it all rinses out in the final rinse.” — Desert D
“So easy to use, they take no space compared to liquid detergent. [...] I also love these for traveling!!! I put them into a plastic baggie and no mess in my suitcase.” — The Blonde and Co
