6 Enzymes: Protease (sweat & proteins), Lipase (body oils), Amylase (starches & detergent residue), Mannanase (food gums & fabric residue), Cellulase (cotton fibre renewal), DNase (biofilm scaffold).
Oxygen bleach: Sodium percarbonate — lifts stains and brightens whites from cold to 60°C without chlorine.
Zinc odour neutraliser: Sodium zinc polyitaconate — captures odour molecules directly during the wash cycle.
Full ingredient list: Sodium percarbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium citrate, sodium silicate, sodium zinc polyitaconate, protease, amylase, lipase, cellulase, mannanase, deoxyribonuclease (DNase).
Free from: Synthetic fragrance · Chlorine bleach · Optical brighteners · Dyes
How to Use
Shipping & Returns
Quick answer: An enzyme laundry booster is a powder you add to the drum alongside your regular detergent. Where detergent uses surfactants to rinse loose dirt away, a booster uses enzymes to digest embedded residue — sweat, body oil, starch build-up, and the biofilm bacteria hide in. viblii uses 6 enzymes including DNase (the only UK laundry booster formula targeting biofilm at the scaffold level), oxygen bleach to lift stains, and a zinc odour neutraliser. Add one scoop per wash. Nothing in your routine changes.

The real problem
The problem isn't your detergent.
It's what detergent leaves behind.
You wash the gym top. It comes out looking clean. Two minutes into your next session it smells like it never saw water. Same story with towels that go sour, and workwear that never quite loses the grime.
This isn't a hygiene failure. It's biofilm — a protective bacterial structure that forms inside fabric fibres over repeated wear-wash cycles. Bacteria excrete a matrix around themselves, anchoring to the fabric and shielding themselves from being rinsed away.
The instinct is to add more detergent. It backfires. Excess detergent doesn't rinse out cleanly — the residue left in the fabric feeds the very bacteria causing the smell. Clothes can come out smelling worse.
viblii Enzyme Laundry Booster is built to break down what detergent leaves behind.
Inside the fabric
What builds up in your clothes — wash after wash
Sweat & protein residue
Dried sweat proteins embed in fabric fibres — invisible, but the primary food source for odour bacteria. Gets worse with each subsequent wear.
Body oils & sebum
Natural skin oils coat synthetic fibres and trap bacteria. In polyester and nylon activewear, this is what makes the smell grip so stubbornly.
Biofilm scaffold
Bacteria secrete extracellular DNA to build a protective matrix inside the fabric. This is what keeps them alive through every wash — and producing odour again on next wear.
Detergent build-up
Excess detergent that doesn't rinse cleanly leaves a residue in the fabric. More detergent = more food for bacteria. The smell compounds over time.
Degraded cotton fibres
In cotton fabric, damaged cellulose fibres make the weave feel rough and dull. Cellulase enzyme digests the damaged ends and restores softness and colour.
The formula
3-part system.
6 enzymes.
One scoop.
Most laundry boosters use 1–2 enzymes. viblii uses 6 — each tuned to a specific type of biological soil — plus oxygen bleach to lift stains and a zinc odour neutraliser to capture odour molecules during the wash. No fragrance masking. The smell doesn't come back because the cause has been removed.
Shop Laundry BoosterP
Sweat, blood & protein stains
Protease
Breaks down protein-based soils — sweat, skin cells, blood, food. The primary enzyme for tackling the residue that odour bacteria feed on.
L
Body oils, grease & sebum
Lipase
Digests the oils and sebum that grip synthetic fibres — the reason activewear holds odour far more stubbornly than cotton.
A
Food & starch residue
Amylase
Clears starch-based soils including food residue and the detergent build-up left from over-dosing — the film bacteria colonise over time.
M
Thick soils & product build-up
Mannanase
Targets food gums and certain fabric residues — the heavier soils that protease and amylase alone can't fully shift.
C
Cotton fibre renewal
Cellulase
Digests damaged cellulose microfibrils on cotton surfaces — restoring fabric texture, colour freshness, and softness without fabric softener.
D
Biofilm scaffold — the differentiator
DNase
Dismantles the extracellular DNA structure holding the biofilm matrix together. Once the scaffold is broken, bacteria are exposed and flush away. This is why recurring odour stops recurring — no other UK laundry booster includes this enzyme.
Also contains: sodium percarbonate (oxygen bleach) to lift stains and brighten whites across all wash temperatures, and sodium zinc polyitaconate (zinc odour neutraliser) to capture odour molecules directly during the wash cycle — a second mechanism alongside the enzymes.

Know the difference
More detergent vs enzyme booster
The instinct when clothes smell is to use more detergent. Here's why that makes the problem worse — and what an enzyme booster does instead.
| Feature | More detergent | viblii Enzyme Booster |
|---|---|---|
| Removes biofilm scaffold | No | Yes — DNase |
| Digests sweat & body oils | Partially — surfactants only | Yes — protease & lipase |
| Effect on bacteria | Feeds them — excess residue is their food | Removes their food source |
| Neutralises odour molecules | No | Yes — zinc odour neutraliser |
| Lifts stains & brightens whites | Limited | Yes — oxygen bleach |
| Result after 1–4 washes | Smell often gets worse | Recurring odour cycle breaks |
A booster doesn't replace detergent — it works alongside it. Detergent handles loose everyday dirt. A booster handles the embedded residue detergent leaves behind. Less detergent with a booster consistently outperforms more detergent alone.

Add to Cart — [PRICE]How to use
Add it. Wash. Done.
Nothing in your routine changes. Add to the drum alongside your normal detergent when a load needs more than a routine clean.
-
Add to drum
Add 1 scoop (20g) directly to the empty drum before loading clothes. 2 scoops for large loads (6–8kg). Do not apply powder directly to fabric.
-
Add your detergent
Load clothes and add your normal detergent as usual. The booster works with any detergent — nothing to replace in your routine.
-
Wash warm
Wash as warm as the care label allows. Enzymes are active from cold through 40°C. Brightening performance increases above 50°C. Skip fabric softener on gym kit and towels.
Odour Reset — for deeply embedded permastink
Dissolve 1 scoop (20g) in a full basin of warm water with detergent. Add garment and soak for 1–3 hours. Wash as normal. If odour persists, repeat for 2–4 washes. Suitable for gym kit, towels, and workwear with months of built-up biofilm.
| Temperature | What happens |
|---|---|
| 30–40°C | Ideal enzyme performance range — best results on coloured garments and synthetics |
| 50°C+ | Enhanced stain lifting and whitening from oxygen bleach |
| Above 60°C | Use on whites only — enzyme effectiveness decreases at high temperatures |
Not suitable for: silk, wool, cashmere, leather or dry-clean-only fabrics. Test on a small hidden area before first use on coloured garments. Compatible with all washing machines including HE front loaders.
Built for
Laundry that defeats ordinary detergent
If your clothes consistently come out fresh on a normal detergent cycle, you don't need a booster. The moment "clean" doesn't mean clean, this is what it's for.
Athletes & gym users
Polyester activewear holds sweat and bacteria far more stubbornly than cotton — the structure of synthetic fabric is ideal for biofilm to grip and colonise.
Tradespeople
Ground-in oil, grime and sweat that survives a normal cycle — and the kind of embedded odour that a detergent alone can't shift.
Healthcare & hospitality workers
Uniforms carrying biological soiling and persistent odour that needs to actually be gone, not covered with fragrance.
Pet owners
Bedding and clothes with embedded hair, oils and animal odour that standard detergent cycles can't fully clear.
Sour towels & bedding
Towels that smell musty within a day of washing — or any household washing at 30°C where bacteria are surviving and repopulating after each cycle.
One more thing
A booster works on your clothes.
Not on your machine.
If your washing machine's drum, seal and drawer are harbouring biofilm, they re-seed bacteria into every load — no matter how good your booster is. The complete routine pairs a laundry booster with a monthly machine clean.
Pet Formula
Three enzymes targeting pet hair, oils and odour inside the machine. Runs on an empty cycle at 60°C+. Clears the bacterial reservoir that re-infects pet bedding and clothing every wash.
Shop Pet Formula →Hard Water Formula
Descales, protects machine internals and prevents limescale from re-depositing. Built for the 60% of UK homes in hard or very hard water areas — limescale shelters bacteria and blocks enzyme performance.
