Why homemade detergents are winning Kenyan homes

Kenyan households are switching to homemade detergents because they are fresher, more affordable and just as effective as imported brands. At Roses Detergents we hand-mix small batches in Donholm, Nairobi so every jerrycan leaves our workshop fresh.

The essential 6 for every Kenyan home

  1. Multipurpose soap — floors, walls, cars, jikos.
  2. Dishwashing liquid — cuts grease and leaves a citrus shine.
  3. Handwash — gentle, moisturising, perfect for the family.
  4. Disinfectant — kills 99.9% of household germs.
  5. Bleach — for whites, toilets and stubborn stains.
  6. Fabric softener — for soft, fresh-smelling clothes.

Buying in 5L, 10L or 20L

5L is great for small families, 10L for medium homes, and 20L is the most economical for large families, salons, schools and offices. We deliver across Nairobi (Donholm, Embakasi, South B, South C, Langata, Kilimani, Karen) and ship to Ruiru, Kiambu, Mombasa, Kisumu and Nakuru.
