Plain bio enzymes do not expire — they remain stable and effective for a long time. However, when additives like natural foaming or thickening agents are included, the texture may change after around 9 months, but the cleaning effectiveness stays the same. So, while the look and feel of the product might alter slightly over time, the power of the enzymes continues to work just as well.
Yes, biocleaners are entirely water-soluble. We always recommend diluting them before use, as water helps activate the enzymes for effective cleaning.
Commercial detergents use a mix of surfactants, solvents, and strong chemicals to quickly dissolve dirt, grease, and grime, giving instant results. However, they often leave behind residues where harmful bacteria can regrow once the surface dries.
In comparison, cleaners contain good bacteria and enzymes like lipase, amylase & other enzymes that target different organic stains. These work naturally and gently, breaking down dirt over time. While bio cleaners may take longer to show visible results and often need consistent use, they are safer for you and the environment and keep working even after cleaning! Lab tests have shown our bio cleaners are 99% effective. Plus, they provide a longer-lasting clean by preventing harmful bacteria from returning quickly.
Yes! Multiple studies have shown that bio-enzyme-based cleaners can help restore water bodies by breaking down organic waste, sewage, and pollutants.
For example:
- A study by IIT Delhi found that bio-enzymes reduced pollutants like total dissolved solids, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and faecal coliforms in the Yamuna River.
- Another study by the University of Massachusetts showed bio enzymes helped lower nitrogen and phosphorus, which cause harmful algal blooms, in an urban pond.
Many such case studies prove bio-enzymes' positive impact on water health.
We are so glad to see your concern for the planet! Our bottles are upcycled and hold minimal value. Instead of returning them to us (which would consume extra resources, time, and energy), we encourage you to responsibly recycle them locally. The best way is to hand them over to your nearby scrap collector, who will ensure they are sorted, processed, and recycled correctly. This reduces waste, supports recycling efforts, and also helps provide livelihoods to waste pickers. Returning the bottles to us would create unnecessary carbon emissions and likely cost more than the bottles' actual worth. So, recycling them in your area is the most sustainable choice.
Yes, plain bio-enzyme can work as a multipurpose cleaner, but in its pure form, it is watery. It may feel unfamiliar or less convenient, especially for those transitioning from conventional chemical-based cleaners.
To make the switch to natural cleaning more manageable and more effective, we have created specific formulations by adding naturally derived ingredients like mild foaming agents or thickeners. These make the cleaners feel and perform more like what people are used to while still being completely safe, eco-friendly, and chemical-free. Each cleaner is thoughtfully crafted to suit different needs, ensuring a smoother experience without compromising sustainability. These minor enhancements allow our bio-enzyme-based cleaners to feel more familiar while staying safe, natural, and eco-friendly. We aim to make sustainable living simple, effective, and enjoyable.
While we often think of bacteria as harmful, there are actually two types — harmful bacteria (which cause illness) and good bacteria (which support health). Bio enzymes use natural, beneficial bacteria that help break down organic waste like grease and dirt. These good bacteria outcompete harmful germs, creating a cleaner, healthier, and more balanced environment in your home. Just like the good bacteria in our gut keep us healthy, bio enzymes do the same for our living spaces — safely and naturally!
We package our bio enzymes in upcycled plastic bottles collected from local scrap dealers (raddiwalas) as part of our sustainability efforts. These bottles may differ slightly in shape and size, but the quantity of the liquid is always consistent, as we fill and check each bottle by weight, not by volume. This ensures you receive the correct amount every time, regardless of bottle shape.
Bio enzymes are naturally fermented products, and colour variations are completely normal! The differences occur due to factors like:
- Seasonal changes in ingredients
- Fermentation conditions (temperature, time, microbial activity)
- Storage conditions after fermentation
These natural shifts do not affect the quality or effectiveness of the product. Instead, they are a beautiful reminder of the living, chemical-free nature of bioenzymes.
Yes, you can use our bio enzymes for pets. Among all the cleaners, you can use our formulation named as laundry wash for them. Always dilute the solution before using, Add 100ml of solution to 1 litre of water. Make sure the solution doesn't get into his eyes. Kindly let us know if you are looking to solve some particular problem, like itchy skin or ear cleaning, so we can let you know the application of bio enzymes accordingly.
The procedure for making all types of enzyme is same, you can use banana peels for banana enzyme and neem leaves for neem enzyme. you can make a stronger neem enzyme by using neem fruits too.
Yes, bio enzyme can be used for water purification. If using it for purifying drinking water, add 1 ml bio enzyme to 1000ml of water, and make sure 100% pure bio enzyme should be used without any additives.
There are some veggies that you can avoid washing and storing like mushrooms, potatoes, onions, berries, and leafy greens. Soak them for 15-20 mins before cooking, potatoes and onions can be peeled and soaked for a few minutes. Wash with plain water and then use. For other veggies like capsicum, make sure you pat them dry properly before storing them in the refrigerator so that there is no water residue left on them.
Our cleaner uses peels or high-quality flowers, which require labour-intensive collection processes. Furthermore, preparing the enzymes alone takes three months, and great care must ensure the product does not spoil. Unfortunately, we have faced losses with certain batches due to these meticulous procedures. In addition, we are committed to minimizing our impact on the environment. To contribute to this cause, we upcycle old bottles instead of using new ones, despite the extra effort involved in cleaning each bottle by hand. By choosing this approach, we aim to reduce waste and take small steps toward preserving Mother Nature.
Moreover, the additives we use to create foam, thicken the cleaner, and add natural fragrances, such as pure essential oils, come at an additional cost. These elements enhance the effectiveness and overall quality of our product. We pour our hearts into every step of the manufacturing process because we firmly believe in the power of natural ingredients to clean and protect our homes and the planet. Despite our challenges, we are dedicated to maintaining the highest quality standards while staying true to our environmental values.

When adding Satopradhan Bio Enzyme to your homemade bio enzyme mixture, it can indeed act as a starter and help accelerate the fermentation process. This can potentially reduce the overall fermentation time required for the bio enzyme production.
However, it is important to note that while it may expedite the process, it may not necessarily cut the timing in half. To further enhance the fermentation process and potentially reduce the fermentation time, it is recommended to use the pulp from Satopradhan Toilet Cleaner in the new batch of bio enzyme. This can provide additional beneficial microorganisms and enzymes that aid in the fermentation process, leading to better results compared to using other sources.
Certainly! Bio Enzymes can indeed be utilized for purifying water. If you are asking in the case of purifying drinking water, when using bio enzymes, it is important to follow certain guidelines to ensure effective and safe application.
To begin, it is crucial to dilute the bioenzyme before use. The recommended dilution ratio is 1 liter of bioenzyme per 1000 liters of water, or 1 milliliter of bioenzyme per 1 liter of water. Diluting the bioenzyme allows for proper dispersion and ensures its effectiveness. When selecting a bioenzyme, opting for a pure formulation without additional additives like essential oils is advisable. This helps maintain the purity and efficacy of the bioenzyme in water purification.
There are various ways to acquire a bioenzyme for water purification. One option is to prepare a citric bioenzyme at home. Alternatively, you can explore a range of natural cleaners available at our online store, such as a fruit and vegetable wash containing bioenzymes derived from tulsi and moringa.
