It is used in some eco-friendly cleaning products and as a laboratory source of anhydrous hydrogen peroxide. Ideal for pet odor removal. Ideal for stain removal. Excellent detergent booster. As a color safe bleach, sodium percarbonate is an ingredient in many home and laundry products.

As an oxidizing agent, sodium percarbonate is an ingredient in a number of home and laundry cleaning products, including non-chlorine color safe bleach products such as OxyBoost, OxiClean, Tide laundry detergent, and Vanish. Dissolved in water, it yields a mixture of hydrogen peroxide (which eventually decomposes to water and oxygen) and sodium carbonate ("soda ash").

Many commercial products mix a percentage of sodium percarbonate with sodium carbonate (washing soda). The average percentage of an "Oxy" product in the supermarket is 65% sodium percarbonate and 35% washing soda. The "ultra boosters" seen on infomercials may contain as much as 80% sodium percarbonate.
