Halo sports washHalo is a new product which kills the bacteria from our sweat which are trapped in the weave of the fabric – allowing the clothing to breathe. It also continues to work by leaving behind active agents in the clothing unlike most detergents which mask these odours by leaving soap residue  behind. Three of the PWT team tried Halo out on their laundry.
 
I tested the Halo Proactive Sports Wash and the Halo Non Bio Laundry liquids – available both in 1 litre bottles or 60ml single use sachets, the latter perfect for use when travelling. Both liquids have a pleasant, fresh smell which was not over-powering and left washing smelling clean and fresh. In the absence of sport clothes, I washed sweaty, back from holiday clothes with the Proactive Sports Wash at 30 degrees and the results were excellent. The non bio detergent is also scientifically proven to kill hospital bugs and bacteria such as MRSA and C-Difficile.

Halo non bioI have tried each of these Halo products on two separate occasions and every time the clothes came out of the washing machine feeling and looking really clean and smelling very fresh. They were also soft to touch and therefore there was no need to add any fabric softener. The products were used on a normal weekly wash at a temperature of 30°, which is always a bonus as this saves on energy.

I don't have a great deal of sportswear to wash each week, but in the wash using the Proactive Sports Wash I did include a rather dirty tracksuit and T-shirt and was very pleased with the result, as all the stains were successfully removed.

We found Halo was particularly effective on stains on baby clothes and bibs. And it's reassuring to know that it kills bugs and bacteria. In the absence of sports gear I used the Sports Wash on the dog's blanket and the cats' fabric baskets and they all emerged from the washing machine super clean!

Halo is available from Wilkinson stores nationwide and costs £5.98 per litre.
