Persil Ultra Pacs Original Laundry Detergent
Persil says the new pacs dissolve faster than the old Discs.
Ultra Pacs Original are pre-measured. The Canadian page says they work in any water temperature, including cold, and that whitening and brightening are built in. You put the pac in the wash. There is no cap to fill.
Henkel owns Persil and is based in Düsseldorf. The pac page does not give a count of pacs in the tub, and it does not name a factory. The poured Original bottles are a separate listing.

- •Single-dose pacs, not a poured liquid

Our Canadian score
Imported
Henkel sells these as a pre-measured Persil dose for Canadian shoppers. The page claims a quicker break-up than the previous disc and a cold-water wash. It skips both the factory and the count in the tub.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Persil Ultra Pacs made in Canada?
The Canadian pac page does not claim a Canadian factory. It talks about how fast the film breaks up compared with the older disc. Persil's help centre says Henkel in Düsseldorf owns the brand.
How are Persil Ultra Pacs different from Persil liquid?
One is a toss-in dose. The other is a bottle you pour, in a small size and a large size. The pac write-up stresses whitening and a quicker break-up versus the older disc format.
Do Persil Ultra Pacs work in cold water?
Yes. Persil says Ultra Pacs Original deliver a clean in all water temperatures, including cold, and in all washing machines. That is the claim on the Canadian product page.
Who owns Persil Ultra Pacs?
Henkel owns Persil Ultra Pacs. Persil's FAQ names Henkel Corporation, headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany, and dates the brand to 1907. The pac page itself talks about the formula, not the corporate address.
Did Persil Discs change names?
Persil now calls the single-dose format Ultra Pacs. The page says they dissolve faster than the previous Discs. The Canadian URL still says original-scent-discs, which is the old name sitting under the new one.
