A recyclable container containing a substrate treatment liquid, configured for fluid connection to a fluid communication system of a substrate treatment machine e.g. washing machine, the storage container comprising:

Recyclable auto-dosing container

A computer-implemented method for creating a bespoke laundry treatment recipe includes receiving fabric data related to one or more of stain identity, fabric identity, user requirements and user preference; comparing by means of a data processing system said input data with ingredient combination data stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, and formulating one or more laundry treatment recipes, said recipes being bespoke to the user input data; wherein said ingredient combination data comprises: multiple ingredient composition data; multiple combinations of said ingredient compositions; and multiple treatment (e.g. stain) categories related to said ingredient composition combinations.

Methods and devices for individualized laundry

A method of supplying and replenishing a laundry dosing system with one or more reservoirs providing stocks of components for laundry includes monitoring consumption of each of the components in the one or more reservoirs; automatically determining when each one or more reservoirs need replenishment from the monitoring; and replenishing one or more components in response to a monitoring result.

Methods and system for monitoring and replenishing one or more laundry components

A method of laundering articles, the method comprising combining a detergent composition and water to provide a detergent solution, wherein the detergent composition comprises a surfactant system containing at least 40 wt % linear alkylbenzene sulfonate(s), then introducing into a washing machine basket the detergent solution so as to dampen articles in the basket; and then waiting for a duration of time during which no water or further detergent solution is added to the basket containing the dampened articles.

Methods and compositions

A method of laundering articles, the method comprising combining a detergent composition and water to provide a detergent solution, wherein the detergent composition comprises a surfactant system containing a betaine, then introducing into a washing machine basket the detergent solution so as to dampen articles in the basket; and then waiting for a duration of time during which no water or further detergent solution is added to the basket containing the dampened articles.

Apparatus for providing a laundry product to a wash load based on user input, comprising a dosing unit () for placing in a washing machine drum and a dispensing device () having a dispensing area (), a nozzle () and a plurality of reservoir cartridges () containing various laundry products that are combined by a user and which are dispensed into the dosing unit () by said nozzle () as soon as said dosing unit () is placed in the dispensing area () located underneath the nozzle ().
