MelaBrite® 6x
Colour-Safe Brightener
Naturally whitens and brightens clothes to keep them looking newer longer.
Ingredients
Biodegradeable, proprietary
formula contains: Cleaning boosters
(detergents), stain targeting enzymes,
brightening agent, fragrance.
The EcoSense® Laundry
Care System
Adding MelaBrite 6x to a regular wash load
enhances the cleaning ability of MelaPower
6x and helps protect and brighten clothes,
giving you the whitest whites and the
brightest colours. MelaBrite 6x is also more
ecologically sensible: it is biodegradable
and non-caustic, and its ultra-concentrated
formula requires smaller packaging,
resulting in less waste plastic.
Energy-Saving Formula
MelaBrite 6x has been specially formulated
to work well in all water temperatures and
can be used in high efficiency washing
machines.
EcoSense Saves Tons of
Plastic—Literally!
Thanks to the ultra-concentrated formulas
in MelaPower 6x and MelaBrite 6x, we can
offer many more loads per bottle without
increasing our small bottle sizes. We have
the potential to save plastic—lots of it!
If every Melaleuca customer used ultraconcentrated MelaPower 6x and MelaBrite
6x instead of Tide® 2x Ultra and Clorox®2,
we’d save around 2.8 million pounds of
plastic in one year. That’s enough to make
about 1.5 million laundry baskets!
The Need
You want a laundry brightener that helps you not only keep your laundry looking like
new, but helps create a safer, more worry-free home and environment around you, all
without costing a premium.
Competitive Solutions
Supermarket brand brighteners can use caustic chemicals like chlorine bleach, which
brightens whites but can fade colours and “dissolve” fabrics as well as stains.
The Melaleuca Solution
MelaBrite 6x combines significant savings per load with a triple combination of
detergents, enzymes, and a brightener to clean and protect the brightness of clothes—
all without harsh, caustic chemicals.
The Melaleuca Value
MelaBrite 6x is six times more concentrated than Ultra Clorox 2®—brightening and
protecting your clothes for close to half the cost per load.
Supermarket detergents and laundry additives can contain potentially corrosive
ingredients like chlorine bleach that not only eat away at dirt and stains, they eat away
at your clothes. These chemicals cause colours to fade and deteriorate the fabric, leaving
clothes spotted with fuzz or “lint pills.” Because of the harsh nature of these products,
clothing is generally only given a life expectancy of 50 washings.1 Bleach, one of the
most popular brightening agents, is also highly toxic. In 2006 alone, more than 41,000
incidents of bleach poisoning were reported to Poison Control Centers. Almost 15,000
of those were from children under the age of six.2 An astounding figure considering
bleach is required to feature a child-resistant cap. Fortunately, there is a solution that’s
safer for your family as well as your clothes. MelaBrite uses a proprietary blend of
detergents, enzymes, and a brightener to target stains and safely remove them without
resorting to toxic or corrosive chemicals—giving you brighter, whiter clothes that look
newer and last longer than ever before.
Six Times Concentrated MelaBrite 6x
MelaBrite 6x is an ultra-concentrated colour-safe brightener that is strong and effective,
ecologically sensible, non-caustic, safer for your home, and economical. Requiring just
15mL per load of laundry, MelaBrite 6x still delivers a powerful, proprietary blend of
detergents, enzymes, and a brightener to target stains and safely remove them without
resorting to toxic or corrosive chemicals—giving you brighter, whiter clothes that look
newer and last longer than ever before.

Protection for Every Load
While MelaBrite 6x’s formula is extremely
effective at powering out soils and spills,
you don’t have to wait for a stain to strike
to use MelaBrite 6x. Its exclusive mix of
enzymes helps protect colours and extend
the life of all fabrics, making it the ideal
addition to every load.
MelaBrite 6x vs. Chlorine
Bleach
In this demonstration, chlorine bleach
severely damages fabric in just minutes—
while MelaBrite 6x does no harm at all.
Triple-Action Formula
How do you keep clothes clean and bright without caustic chemicals? MelaBrite 6x
has three ways. Special detergents boost the cleaning performance of MelaPower 6x,
a combination of enzymes fight stains and protect colours, and powerful brighteners
enhance fibres to deliver unbeatable whiteness.
Proprietary Detergent Blend
Under a microscope, your clothes consist of tiny fibres. Each fibre provides a surface
which can attract and hold soil. The more surface area, the more opportunity to attract
soil and stains. MelaBrite 6x’s proprietary blend of detergents slips between the fibres
and the soil, loosening the soil so it comes off easily in the wash.
Natural Stain-Targeting Enzymes
Enzymes are special proteins that work together to break large compounds into smaller
pieces. The amazing thing about enzymes is they focus on substances that match their
distinctive size and shape. This unique factor allows MelaBrite 6x to target specific stains
without harming clothing or fading colours. MelaBrite 6x contains a proprietary mix
of two powerful stain-targeting enzymes. One targets organic-based stains like blood,
grass, and spaghetti/tomato sauce stains. The other targets starch-based stains like
cocoa, gravy, and wine.
Fabric-Protecting Enzymes
In addition to stain-targeting enzymes, MelaBrite 6x contains Carezyme™enzymes.
These special ingredients help extend the life of your clothes, preventing the fuzz and
pills that give your clothes a worn look, so they look newer and cleaner longer. And
because MelaBrite 6x contains no harsh chemicals or bleach, it is safe for virtually all
types of clothing, even those “do not bleach” items.

Brightener
To put MelaBrite 6x even further ahead of other fabric whiteners, MelaBrite 6x’s
proprietary formula contains a special ingredient that reflects UV rays, making whites
look brighter and colours look brilliant. And since MelaBrite 6x is safe for colours too,
all your clothes will look exceptionally bright.
Safer for Your Home
With its pH-neutral formula, MelaBrite 6x is as gentle on clothes as tap water. When
you’re worried about the safety of your home, that’s a load off your mind. Contrast
MelaBrite 6x with some supermarket additives, which may contain potentially corrosive
ingredients like chlorine bleach that eat away at your clothes, fading colours and
leaving clothes spotted with fuzz or “lint pills.”
A Bright Idea for the Environment
With its ultra-concentrated formula, MelaBrite 6x packs more loads into a smaller bottle.
That means less packaging waste in landfills. In fact, if every Melaleuca customer used
MelaBrite 6x instead of Napisan® Vanish®, we would save 725 tonnes of plastic every
single year.
Cleaner, Brighter Clothes for as Little as AU31¢/NZ37¢ a Load!
Thanks to a formula that doesn’t contain unnecessary water, MelaBrite 6x can save you
over 60% over supermarket brands.
