There are three ecoballs in each box. You put all three balls in the washing machine with your clothes, each one contains pellets made of mineral salts that, combined with the movement of the balls on your clothes, penetrates deep into your washing, lifting dirt and grime away. Because there's a lot less to rinse out, you can use a shorter cycle, and wash at a lower temperature. The kit
lasts for up to 1,000 washes.
- EcoBalls® give you a clean, fresh, and sensitive alternative to conventional washing powders, and are reuseable for up to 1,000 washes (including the free refills), which is about the same as 50 boxes of washing powder or liquitabs. They cost on average 3p per wash (compared to 25-30p for normal washing powder), and so will save you quite a lot of money.
- EcoBalls® are hypoallergenic and the kit includes free refill pellets and a stain remover.
- You can add conditioner, eco bleach or pre-soak as you need.
- EcoBalls® take smells away, but don't add any - you can add one of your own via conditioner or an essential oil etc, as you like.
- No more hassle or expense of carting bulky powders and liquids home from the supermarket ever again.
- Eco Balls do not need the rinse cycle - so if possible, save water and energy by choosing a very short, or no rinse cycle.
- Voted one of the Ten Best Green Household Products by The Independent, and featured on BBC Newsnight.
- If everyone switched to EcoBalls ®, 700,000 fewer tonnes of detergent would go into Britain's waterways every year.
- "Bought a set and am 100% impressed. I have inspected my washing scrupulously and cannot fault them and the washing is softer. Can't imagine using anything else now. Would recommend them to anybody."
Sue Nichol - EcoBalls® come with 30-day money back guarantee so there's no excuse not to try them.
- EcoBalls® pellets are fully biodegradable, but not suitable for adding to a vegetable patch.
- NB Nigel's Eco Store is authorised to sell the Registered EcoBalls® - the ones we sell are the Original EcoBalls®, not a copy that are sold by some other retailers.
Hard waterIf you live in a hard water area, we recommend using an eco friendly limescale remover such as
Magno Balls, with the EcoBalls®, it helps to make them work better.

Eco Balls I've been using them for over 2 years now. They do what they say. Clen fresh soft clothes without the need for powder, conditioner and hot water. I thought they were a bit expensive when I first bought them but I was wrong as they have saved me money too. Tina - Ramsgate, Kent
Seem to work well - good practical solution Once you've got used to the absence of that 'clean' laundry smell (i.e. the perfume in fabric softener and ordinary detergent), these are obviously more economical and ecologically sound. Just be aware 1,000 washes is based on 30 min washes at low temperatures. -
Great Product I was a bit sceptical about this product at first, but was pleasantly surprised with the results. My white cotton bedding came out lovely and soft. I used the eco stain remover on a very dirty tea towel and that came out fine too. Janet - Suffolk
Eco balls I absolutely recomend these for the washing. I have used them for about 4yrs. Sves money all ways, wash powder,water,electric. P.Roberts - Essex
Work Great Have used Eco Balls for years now and would hate to have to go back to detergent only. Almost all the time the balls are sufficient, but on really heavy farm/festival dirt we find 1 cap of eco detergent works brilliantly. Don't go for the cheap copies, we tried, they burst and broke the machine. Amanda - West Wales
Eco friendly and economical too I have been using for four months now along with the magnoball as I have very hard water. Works really well except for heavy staining but I just add some stain remover powder( the ones designed to work with your washing powder)which I would have had to use anyway so no complaints from me. euphoriabuzz - Brecon, Wales
These are fantastic - laundry clean and so soft Even my daughter agrees and now has her own set Marion - Rickmansworth

Nigel Says
I've been using EcoBalls for over 4 years! Clothes come out softer, using less water, and the results are great.
