Fragrance-free, dye-free and free of microplastics: a dishwasher tab that leaves glasses bright without leaving a perfume on your plates.
Miele UltraTabs All in 1 ECO: Nordic Swan-Certified Dishwasher Tablets for Miele and Other Dishwashers
Quick answer: Miele UltraTabs All in 1 ECO (GS CL 0602 T E) is a 60-tab dishwasher detergent for Miele and other household dishwashers. It’s certified with the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, cleans with active oxygen, and has no fragrance, colourants, preservatives or microplastics. Available at Vacuum Supermarket in North Vancouver, BC.
What makes UltraTabs ECO different from regular UltraTabs?
The ECO version takes out what you don’t need. Per Miele, it has no fragrance, colourants, preservatives or microplastics, and no silver-protection additive. Miele USA describes the formula as mostly plant-based and biodegradable. Regular UltraTabs All in 1 add a scent and a salt substitute. ECO suits households that want unscented dishes and a shorter ingredient list.
Can I use Miele UltraTabs ECO in a non-Miele dishwasher?
Yes, and that’s what our customers tell us. Miele developed the formula for Miele dishwashers and doesn’t publish an official compatibility list for other brands. Feedback from customers using UltraTabs ECO in other household dishwashers has been positive so far, with no problems reported. Drop one tab in the main detergent dispenser, as you would any tablet.
Does an eco dishwasher tablet actually clean?
Yes. Miele says UltraTabs ECO gives sparkling results even at low wash temperatures, and active oxygen handles stains such as tea rings and coffee marks. On Miele dishwashers with the QuickIntenseWash program, Miele says the tabs give its best cleaning in under an hour, so a full load of dinner plates can finish before dessert is cleared.
Is it certified, or just labelled “green”?
It’s independently certified. UltraTabs All in 1 ECO holds the Nordic Swan Ecolabel (licence 5017 0076, held by Miele & Cie. KG), one of Europe’s strictest third-party environmental labels, and the listing covers the Canadian pack. That’s an outside standard, not a marketing word.
No unwrapping, no plastic wrapper in the bin
Each tab sits in a water-soluble film. You drop it straight into the dispenser and the film dissolves in the wash. Miele Australia states the film is biodegradable under the OECD 301F test. No foil to peel, no sticky fingers.
Gentle on glassware
UltraTabs ECO is formulated to care for glasses and works together with rinse aid for a streak-free finish. If you own good stemware, keep the rinse-aid dispenser filled, whatever brand your dishwasher is.
“Why pay more than supermarket tabs?”
Look at what you’re getting: an independently certified formula from a company that has built dishwashers for decades. At $37.99 CAD for 60 tabs, one tab per wash works out to about 63 cents a load. That’s a small step up for unscented, certified-eco cleaning.

Who it’s for, and who should look elsewhere
A strong choice if you prefer unscented dishes, have family members sensitive to fragrance, or want a certified-ecolabel tab, whether your dishwasher is a Miele or another brand.
Look elsewhere if you like a fresh scent when you open the door, or you want a built-in salt substitute. Miele’s standard UltraTabs All in 1 is the better fit there.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is Miele UltraTabs ECO worth it? If you want an unscented, certified-eco tab, yes. It’s Nordic Swan certified, free of fragrance, dyes and microplastics, and Miele says it cleans well at low temperatures. At about 63 cents a load, it’s an easy switch to try.
UltraTabs All in 1 vs UltraTabs All in 1 ECO: what’s the difference? ECO is fragrance-free, has no colourants, preservatives, microplastics or silver protection, and carries the Nordic Swan Ecolabel. The standard version adds a scent and a salt substitute. Both come in 60-tab packs.
Does it work in non-Miele dishwashers? Short answer: our customers say yes. Miele has no official compatibility list for other brands, but customer feedback from use in other household dishwashers has been positive, with no problems reported so far. If your manual has specific detergent instructions, follow them.
Do I still need rinse aid? Our technicians recommend it. The tabs are designed to work together with rinse aid for the best shine on glassware. If your dishwasher uses salt, keep that topped up as your manual directs.
Do I need to unwrap the tabs? No. The water-soluble film dissolves in the wash, so the tab goes straight into the dispenser.
Is it safe around kids? Store it out of reach. Miele’s label warns that the tabs can cause serious eye irritation, and the enzymes may cause an allergic reaction. If a tab gets in someone’s eyes, rinse with water for several minutes and see a doctor if irritation continues.
