The Science of Hexazyme®

Where Nature Meets Performance

At Brilliance Laundry, we believe natural should work better.

Our proprietary Hexazyme® multi-enzyme blend was developed to outperform traditional detergents  without harsh chemicals, artificial fillers, or fabric-damaging residues.

Most stains aren’t simple. They’re layered. Protein from sweat. Oils from skin. Starch from food. Plant fibers from fruits and vegetables.

That’s why we created a six-enzyme system that works together to break stains down at the molecular level not just mask them.

For more on how our full formula works, visit our NanoDiamond™ Technology page and explore the complete science behind our cleaning system.


Why Enzymes Clean Better Than Traditional Detergent

Traditional detergents rely on:

• High alkalinity
• Synthetic surfactants
• Artificial fragrance to mask odor
• Optical brighteners to fake whiteness

They strip fabric to force stains out.

Hexazyme® works differently.

Our enzymes act like microscopic precision tools  each one targeting a specific stain type and breaking it into tiny particles that rinse away cleanly, even in cold water.

No harsh stripping.
No chemical masking.
No residue buildup.

Just intelligent cleaning.


Traditional Detergent vs. Brilliance Laundry

Traditional Detergent

– Uses harsh chemicals to force stains out
– Often leaves residue trapped in fibers
– Relies on synthetic fragrance to cover odor
– Can dull colors over time
– May weaken cotton fibers
– Requires warmer water for best results

Brilliance Laundry with Hexazyme®

– Uses targeted enzyme action to break stains down
– Eliminates odor at the source
– Protects color integrity and brightness
– Smooths cotton fibers and reduces pilling
– Works beautifully in cold water
– Extends the life of your garments

Luxury performance. Fabric preservation. Smarter science.


Meet the Six Enzymes Inside Hexazyme®

Each enzyme plays a specific role in stain removal:

Protease – breaks down protein stains like sweat, dairy, and grass.
Amylase – dissolves sticky starch residues from sauces and processed foods.
Pectinase – removes fruit and plant-based stains.
Mannanase – breaks down gums and thickeners found in foods and body products.
Lipase – targets oils, grease, and body buildup.
Cellulase – smooths cotton fibers, reduces fuzz and pilling, and helps restore brightness.

Together, they work synergistically clearing pathways so each enzyme can penetrate deeper into fibers.

Most everyday stains contain multiple components. Hexazyme® treats them all.


Beyond Clean: Fabric Preservation Technology

Hexazyme® doesn’t just remove stains it improves your laundry over time.

With continued use, you’ll notice:

• Brighter whites
• More vibrant colors
• Softer cotton
• Reduced pilling
• Longer-lasting garments
• Less fabric waste

We believe sustainability starts with making clothes last longer.

Cold Water, Elevated Results

Because enzymes are biological catalysts, they activate efficiently in cold water — reducing energy use while maintaining exceptional performance.

That means:

• Lower utility costs
• Reduced environmental impact
• Gentle care for luxury fabrics
• Powerful stain removal

It’s science doing the heavy lifting so your clothes don’t have to.


Why We Created Hexazyme®

As a large family, we needed the impossible:

A detergent that was:
– Truly natural
– Luxuriously fragranced
– Stronger than conventional brands
– Gentle enough for daily use

After years of development, Hexazyme® became the heart of our formula.

One family.
A lot of laundry.
A better way to clean it.
