Laundry Detergent Claims
• Cleaning effectiveness on common stains (grass, blood, oil, wine, food)
• Whitening and brightening performance
• Fabric softness and static reduction
• Performance in cold water and high-efficiency machines.
Dell Tech provides detergent and cleaning product performance testing using ASTM and industry-standard methods. Our ISO 17025 accredited laboratory evaluates cleaning efficacy, surface compatibility, and product safety to support regulatory compliance, product development, and marketing claims.
Dell Tech provides detailed performance testing to substantiate claims made on laundry and dish care products for both household and commercial use. Dell Tech uses standardized stain sets and soil matrices that simulate real-world use in controlled lab settings.
Our lab routinely supports testing for:
• Cleaning effectiveness on common stains (grass, blood, oil, wine, food)
• Whitening and brightening performance
• Fabric softness and static reduction
• Performance in cold water and high-efficiency machines.
• Grease-cutting ability
• Spot-free or streak-free results
• Cleaning in hard water
• Hand-dishwashing mildness or moisturizing claims.
Our lab conducts testing using protocols from:
Common test methods include:

Whether you are preparing a product launch or responding to a request from a regulatory agency or distributor, Dell Tech’s experienced team will:
Our services support both retail brands and contract manufacturers. Custom testing is available when your claim or product does not align with published standards.
Yes. We offer test methods for both hand dishwashing liquids and automatic dish detergents. Test conditions are adjusted based on intended product use.
Claims that imply superiority must be backed by side-by-side lab testing against market leaders using identical test conditions. Our team can help design and execute these comparative tests.
While fragrance preference is often subjective, our lab can help evaluate eco-related performance claims such as low-temperature wash effectiveness, phosphate-free formulations, and biodegradability, often in support of Ecolabel or Safer Choice certifications.
Turnaround time varies depending on sample volume, complexity, and scheduling. Most performance tests can be completed within two to four weeks. Contact our lab to discuss your timeline.
