What's in it? We're all about transparancy so here's the breakdown of ingredients in simple terms. No surprises at Tea Trees.
Sodium Carbonate:
Used in manufacturing glass and soap and is used as a water softener. It’s an approved food additive and can act as an antacid. Importantly, it has disinfectant properties and cuts through grease, organic soils,
Ethoxylated alcohol
An effective germ killer, gentle on skin, biodegradable and non toxic
Quaternary ammonium salts
Disinfectants & antibacterial, often used in fabric softeners and hair conditioners. An effective anti bacterial solution.
Berol 226SA
A water based alkaline cleaner which is an exceptional cleaning solution of fat/oil and particulate soils. Meets US EPA Safer Choice requirements
Sodium Sulphate
Creates the suds in shampoo, this material is a naturally occurring salt which is non toxic and assists in the cleaning process
Citric Acid Anhydrous
Citric Acid comes from citrus fruits. The ‘anhydrous’ part refers to ‘no water’ – hence it’s in a tablet! It’s used as a preservative, is non toxic and kills bacteria, mold and mildew. It’s considered a gentle cleaner for those with sensitive skin and is biodegradable
Sodium Silicate Anhydrous
Helps to reduce hard water and reduces mineral deposits on surfaces. It’s biodegrable and slightly toxic in high concentration so be careful handling the undissolved tablet.
Polyethylene glycol 6000
Otherwise known as PEG6000, it’s found in many medicines, toothpastes and is also a permitted additive in foods. It’s used as a mould release agent and is found to be non toxic
Sodium Benzoate
Often used as a preservative, it’s found in some soft drinks. Benzoic acid is a good preservative and when combining it with Sodium Hydroxide it becomes more dissolvable (important when considering our tablets have to dissolve!) Some bacteria produce benzoic acid when fermenting yoghurt! It’s biodegradable and non – toxic as a cleaning agent.
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid Disodium Salt
Safe, not easily absorbed by the skin, used as an ingredient in some foods, EDTA salt assists in binding the ingredients together. Nontoxic and safe for the environment in small doses.

My choice for anything cleaning
I came across Tea trees not long ago, and It quickly became my to go for cleaning. For anything, from kitchen to toilets, it does a brilliant job. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a more natural and sustainable option for cleaning products.

Don't bother using anything else!
I'm a domestic cleaner and use The General for everything. Benchtops, windows (really good on glass), cooktops, walls, white goods, bathroom (basins, toilets, showers) and all general spills. It cleans everything! The only other cleaning product I require is a floor cleaner. I love the natural ingredients and fresh minty smell. I highly recommend this product

I use the General on absolutely everything, every surface throughout my house. It cleans so well and smells fresh. The ingredients are all gentle. AND you are saving a plastic bottle ending in the bin with every tablet.

Changing my buying behaviour
I am making a conscious effort to minimise my waste and consumption. I love this 'reuse' brand. I have subscribed to the refills arriving so that I never have to buy cleaning products at shops or be tempted to buy single use bottles.

easy to use
I love this concept. It's really simply and it makes sense for us to be reusing our bottles over and over again. Hats off to this brand.
