FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Pikoc
Why Pikoc?
The name of our brand comes from the English word for "peacock." We then customized the spelling to create Pikoc!
The peacock is the emblem of our brand. Its fanned tail represents the olfactory diversity we offer through our laundry products.
This fragrant fan is akin to a color palette, where each scent is associated with a color.
Where are your products manufactured?
We are proud to present products that are made in France!
To be more precise, our laundry detergent is crafted just a few kilometers away from Paris, our mist and vinegar are produced in Corrèze, and the dish liquids are manufactured in the central region.
Our handcrafted drying balls are made in Nepal by a small workshop that prioritizes employing women, which is still uncommon in Nepal. However, we are always on the lookout for a French artisan for our drying balls. If you know someone in France, we would be delighted to get in touch with them.
Do you offer samples?
No, we have taken the initiative not to make samples to limit the use of single-use plastic bottles.
We offer you our boxes of detergents and mists to discover our products.
Do you test your products on animals?
No and it will always be no! We do not test on animals at Pikoc.
All of our products are vegan and cruelty free, except our dryer balls which are made of wool.

We have integrated organic aloe vera extract into our formula. This dermoprotective and softening plant will take care of your skin!
There are no preservatives in our products, this helps to respect the most sensitive skin.
For very sensitive skin, we recommend our hypoallergenic reference Oranger en Fleurs. Its fragrance has been designed to limit the risk of allergic reactions.
Can I wash fragile textiles with this detergent?
Pikoc doesn't play favorites. We've formulated the detergent so that all textiles can be washed. Your t-shirts will be treated just as well as your cashmere pieces!
How many washes can I do with the 1L bottles?
If you follow the recommended doses, 40ml for a 4kg machine, you can do 25 washes per bottle. Our detergent is 3 times more concentrated than a detergent on the market.
Is your detergent natural?
The Pikoc formula contains more than 95% ingredients of natural origin. The rest guarantees the efficiency, stability and sensory pleasure of our laundry.
How much detergent should I put in the machine?
We recommend, for a 4 kg machine, a dose of 40 mL with moderately hard water. This quantity corresponds to 2 measuring cups.
For soft water, the recommended dose is 30 mL and for hard water, 60 mL.

The detergent is effective both cold and at 90°C.
We recommend short cold cycles for energy saving.

You have the choice between:
- our 5L eco-refills to refill your bottle directly at home. (available exclusively on our site)

Once my detergent is empty, what to do with my bottle?
You can recharge it! There are 5L eco-refills sold in stores or on the site. You can even come and fill them in our partner shops or in our showroom.
You no longer need it? Our bottle is 100% recyclable. You can put it in your recycling bin, most often it's the yellow one;).
