The three forces
Washing relies on three types of energy: heat (wash temperature), agitation (cycle choice), and chemistry (detergent). As the washing temperature drops, so the role of chemistry and agitation increases. This means that if you lower the washing temperature the detergent needs to compensate for this. Ariel’s designed to work brilliantly at 30°C – and Ariel Excel Gel cleans at temperatures as low as 15°C.
