I use powder which I've decanted into small tubs for convenience but I always make a point of telling the customer it's NOT what it says on the label.

A fair number of people ask about the chemicals / powder I use and I simply tell them they could buy it from a janitorial supplier but it comes in very large tubs showing them the buckets I use for filling and it costs from £40 -£80 per bucket ( not exactly true as I only pay about £16 but some cost a lot more )

I also make the point that it's specially formulated to be very low foaming, easily rinsed out and non resoiling.

some of the newer  washing machines liquids seem to contain no foaming agents ( usually SLES  ) which i'd say added for visual effect more than anything .

heres a suitable one ...' Formil bio/nonbio '  from Lidl 

Its cheap and concentrate ... contains everything you'd find on some of the pro cc products ...  was thinking of making up 20 liters for nuckin thrashed rentals etc ... which often dont deserve your £££ products  ? ...
Doesn't foam but you could add more defoam or some perfume Deodorizer to make it your own ...
