Costco continues to offer quality products under it's own label with Kirkland Signature Laundry Detergent. Offered in concentrated form for an inexpensive price, more loads of laundry can be done with less concern about packaging disposal. Costco has created this detergent with no phospates, dyes, optical brighteners or bleaches. Also, all the chemicals used are plant-based, are safe for septic systems and nothing was tested on animals. It's also claimed that efficient manufacturing and distribution methods were used, but no details were given. Though the packaging claims it is environmentally friendly, there is no outside certification and no detailed explanation of what they mean by that.
It is only available at Costco stores throughout the United States and Canada. It is not available for purchase online.

Looking for a low suds laundry detergent but must also be mild to our skin...thanks
Do not feel that clothes smelled as fresh using this detergent. Will not purchase again.
Warning: I'm pretty sure this detergent is the cause of some major skin rashes and irritation that my fiance and I have been experiencing. I've read that the vague ingredient listing is because this is loaded with irritating enzymes. I'd hate to bash a product and be wrong, but I'm fairly certain this is the culprit.
That's interesting that you mentioned the skin rash. I just found this site online (by typing "skin rashes from Kirkland laundry detergent", trying to find out if anyone else has experienced skin problems with this new formulation.
I just ran out of their old detergent, and used this new one. I have been itching all week, yet there are no visible rashes. I am trying to narrow the cause down, and this seems like the only new variable in my life.
We switched to laundry products from Melaleuca and my daughter's rashes disappeared, after trying many other 'natural' products.
We just started to use the powdered Kirkland Signature Ultra laundry detergent 180 loads and the powder does not seem to dissolve unless you use hot water and i wash all my clothes in cold water, my wife says she has to shake out the extra powder detergent from the clothes after the wash, do you have any suggestions?

The article said it was unsure if the detergent was actually enviornmentally friendly. Best bet is to call Huish detergents also known as Sun products and ask them. They make the detergent for Costco. In fact, most store brand detergents manufactured and sold here in the USA are made by Huish detergents (Sun Products Corporation).
Well, I just ran out of their old detergent, and used this new one. I have been itching all week, yet there are no visible rashes. I am trying to narrow the cause down, and this seems like the only new variable in my life right now. - e car insurance
