Experts explain what enzyme cleaners are and their benefits

Three image hero with laundry rooms and cleaning spray.

An enzyme cleaner is a type of natural cleaning product that harnesses the power of natural enzymes to break down and eliminate stains, odors, and organic matter. They speed up the cleaning process by targeting organic matter and breaking down these substances into smaller bits, making it easier to wipe away the mess and leave your space fresh and clean.

Enzyme cleaners work by accelerating the natural biodegradation process. They contain specific enzymes designed to break down certain types of organic matter, such as proteins, starches, or fats. Once the enzymes break down this material, they essentially eat it away, fully removing it from the surface.
