Default A clean question!

Hello
How is non-bio washing powder described in Portugal?
I spent awhile looking through all the literature on the boxes in Continente but could not spot it.

Thanks

Hey spiggle,

It would be described as "não biológico". However, in the 18 months of being here I've yet to see any in any of the supermarkets other than the overseas/Iceland at Algarve Shopping.

Thanks for responding Score76.
I don't recall seeing that phrase but will have another look.

The big supermarkets Continents, Jumbo, have them., a wide range of products.
No need to pay over the odds in so called British shops.

The Overseas shop in Portimão sell the Waitrose homebrand sensitive washing machine liquid, it is a good price.
Not everything in there is overpriced.

We use Lidl Formil washing powder. I reckon there is a good chance that it is biological even though it doesn't say so on the box. We used it in the UK where the box did say "Biological". It's the same good value, good performance washing powder (see Which report).
