WHAT ARE OPTICAL WHITENERS?

Do you want to make your old garments as good as new?
Fra-Ber has created the Tex White concentrated detergent, without bleach, which is a gentle detergent that can be used safely, as well as being an effective remedy against the greying of white fabrics over time and to restore the natural whiteness of fibres. In fact, it contains enzymes and optical whiteners that make laundry brighter by washing the fibres thoroughly, enabling them to reflect and diffuse the light around them. These efficient and innovative enzymes and optical whiteners – which are the basic ingredients of Tex White by Fra-Ber – are not only excellent allies for clean, sanitised and shiny laundry but also a real aid when ironing: in fact, their use makes the fibres of garments soft and smooth, therefore laundry is easier to iron.
Specifically, optical whiteners are additives that are often used in detergents for both washing machines and hand washing, which are capable of making laundry “whiter”. They differ from bleach, since the latter whitens, whereas optical whiteners “brighten” the white of the garment being washed. The result could actually be defined as a kind of “illusion”, since optical whiteners are capable of modifying the wavelength of reflected sun rays, thus making the spectrum more blue-ish (masking any yellowing) so as to immediately make the fabric appear whiter to the eye.
With Tex White, you can finally save time and energy and avoid waste. Why should you throw away a T-shirt you are really fond of or give up hanging the curtains that were in your mum’s living room? Faded white fabrics will shine again, bringing new life to your favourite clothes! Stop worrying about time passing, make all your old garments brighter with the new Tex White concentrated detergent with optical whitener.
