Safety

The Most Important Ingredient in Tide® is Safety

Ensuring the safety of Tide® products is a responsibility that P&G takes very seriously. Before any product can appear on store shelves, it must be demonstrated to be safe to use as intended. After each use, completely close the container, and immediately store the container out of reach of children in an appropriate location.

Keep laundry pacs out of reach of children.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between PODS® and other types of laundry detergent?
A: PODS® detergent pacs are a super concentrated liquid detergent that is specially designed in a small and compact unit dose form to give you a great clean. They are already pre-measured so no need to measure or pour, and the pac goes directly into the back of the drum of your washing machine before adding clothes, not in the dispenser.

Q: How do Tide PODS® work?
A: Tide PODS® clean, fight stains, and brighten all in one. The unique, multi-chamber design allows ingredients to remain separate, stable, and potent—mixing only when they hit the wash for outstanding cleaning and stain removal.

Q: How do I use Tide PODS®?
A: Place a pac in the washing machine drum before you add clothes (never add Tide PODS® to the dosing drawer). For especially dirty loads, you can add a second pac.

Q: Do Tide PODS® work in front- and top-loading machines?
A: Yes, Tide PODS® work well in standard and high efficiency machines. The formula is designed to prevent over-sudsing while also giving a great clean.

Q: Will Tide PODS® dissolve in cold water?
A: Yes, the film is designed to dissolve in all water temperatures, hot or cold.

Q: Do Tide PODS® work equally well on whites and colours?
A: Yes. Tide PODS® have been thoroughly tested on all sorts of laundry conditions, and are safe for both whites and colours.

Q: Should I worry about staining or residues?
A: No. Tide PODS® are designed to dissolve completely in all water temperatures, and will not stain your clothes when used as directed.

Love Tide Pods!!!

I use nothing else. Tide pods are the best. All my mom used was Tide. Like mom like daughter. Something I’d like in my pods would be lavender sense. Love lavender. During these pandemic times I think Tide Pods lavender would call all of us. Thanks

This Product is way over scented

I use liquid Tide original scent all of the time; a good product. Purchased and used the Tide PODS 3 in 1 Original Scent and had to throw them away. Seriously over scented. I even left the washed laundry out for a couple of days and the room was almost overwhelmed with the scent. Had to rewash the whole load.

Meg94, We're very sorry you had this experience. We could have helped you remove the residue without ripping your comforter. We have remedies for that as well as for the staining. Any colorants we use are water soluble and will come out again. Here are some tips to make sure that doesn't happen to you again. Always add the PODS™ to the drum before you add the items you are going to wash. Additionally, do not overload or wash too many absorbent items in a single load. Washing a large item, like a comforter, in too small of washer drum, can cause overloading, which means there isn't enough water for the PODS™ to dissolve and distribute. Please give us a call at (800) 879-8433, so we can help you further with this.

Leaves white residue on dark clothing

Do I recommend Tide Pods? Yes and No. Yes, I think they get clothes clearn......except for dark clothing. The pods leave white residue all over the dark or black clothing. I have to wash all of them again, all by themselves without detergent, in order to get out the white streaks the pods make. It's very aggravating to me.

We're very sorry you're having this experience. When a POD™ doesn't fully dissolve and leaves streaks on darker clothing, the likely culprit is a wash load that is too full or that has too many absorbent items in it. As you have found, the solution is to wash the items again using no laundry detergent. Then, bim-bam-boom, everything is right as rain. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us at (800) 879-8433.
