An independent Clean Wise evaluation of Tide Tide Plus Bleach Alternative Original Scent Liquid Laundry Detergent, 2.72 L, 59 loads, built from the published ingredient disclosure, intended use and directions.
Documented concerns in this formula or in the way it is used, based on the manufacturer's own complete ingredient list. Ethanolamine carries a published classification from ECHA harmonised classification (CLP Annex VI) and is detailed in the health notices below.
Scored from primary manufacturer data with the exact formula version confirmed.
One deterministic 100-point model, displayed on the shared 0.0–10.0 Wise scale.
Documented concerns in this formula or in the way it is used, based on the manufacturer's own complete ingredient list. Ethanolamine carries a published classification from ECHA harmonised classification (CLP Annex VI) and is detailed in the health notices below.
Ethanolamine (Alkaline solvent / pH adjuster) carries the heaviest documented hazard profile in this formula and sets the ceiling for the ingredient score.
Clean Wise scores conservatively where a printed ingredient has no reference record yet. This is a Clean Wise research gap, not a manufacturer failing.
Dosed into a wash, rinsed out of the fabric and dried before a dog lies on it. The realistic exposure is a low residue on bedding, not contact with the concentrate.
Normal use rinses the formula away before a dog contacts the surface, coat or bowl.
The undiluted product is corrosive, so access to the bottle, not the in-use dilution, is the serious exposure scenario.
Pods, sheets, wipes and concentrate bottles are swallowed by dogs. Storage matters as much as the formula.
Transparency measures how much of the formula the maker publishes, not how good the formula is. A fully disclosed poor formula still earns full transparency points.
Clean Wise has not located a current safety data sheet or technical sheet for this exact product.
Product data was captured from a retailer listing because primary manufacturer data was not available.
No relevant independent product certification is on file.
ECHA harmonised classification (CLP Annex VI) classifies Ethanolamine as Skin Corr. 1B / Acute Tox. 4 / STOT RE 2. This identifies a hazard and does not by itself establish the risk from this finished product. Risk depends on concentration, route, frequency, dilution, rinsing, residue and use.
Reduced the formula score by 20.8 of 50 points, weighted by its position in the published ingredient list.
View sourceSodium Laureth Sulfate may be associated with trace 1,4-dioxane depending on manufacture and purification. Clean Wise has not confirmed it is present in this product.
No carcinogenicity penalty was applied: the contaminant is a manufacturing possibility, not a confirmed component of this product. Documentation confidence is lower as a result.

Canadian retailers on record. Stock and price vary by store and province.
Disclosed ingredients in the order they appear on the label, with our independent assessment where we hold reference data.
The carrier for most liquid cleaners. No exposure risk on its own.
A foaming detergent, milder than SLS but still drying.
A powerful laundry surfactant. Irritating in concentrate.
A low-toxicity humectant solvent, safer than ethylene glycol.
A glycol solvent that is toxic if ingested, though far less sweet-tasting than antifreeze.
Drying alcohol. Evaporates quickly but is toxic if ingested wet.
A strong foaming detergent that can strip skin and paw pads.
A common dish-soap surfactant. Irritating if concentrated, fine once diluted.
Widely used synthetic surfactants. Moderate irritation potential.
An undisclosed blend that can contain dozens of compounds. A common trigger for respiratory irritation in dogs.
