Australia’s First Locally Made Dishwasher Tablets Are Now in Coles

by Skipper Team

You can now find Skipper's Aussie-Made Naked Dish Tablets in Coles nationwide. Not bad for a category that hasn’t changed much in… ever.

Why Dishwasher Tablets Needed Fixing

Let’s be honest, dishwasher tablets have been a bit of a doozy.

  • Overcomplicated packaging
  • Questionable “discounts”
  • Heavy reliance on imports
  • And very little transparency

Meanwhile, around 3 million dishwashing tablets are used every single day in Australia.

That’s a lot of plastic and a lot of opportunity to do better.

So we did.

Meet the New Standard: Aussie Dishwasher Tablets

We built our naked Aussie dishwasher tablets from the ground up to challenge the norm.

Here’s what that actually means:

Made in Australia
Until now, every dishwasher tablet on Australian shelves was imported. We've changed that, produced locally, formulated specifically for Australian water, with a supply chain you can actually trace.

Eco-friendly by design
Most tabs are wrapped in PVA film, a dissolvable plastic that ends up in waterways. Skipper's tablets are completely naked. No wrapper, no film, recyclable packaging from end to end.

Fair pricing
No inflated RRP. No fake sale prices. Just honest, below-supermarket pricing you can check any day of the week.

Now Available in Coles Nationwide

You can now grab Skipper’s Aussie dishwasher tablets at Coles, right alongside the legacy brands we’re here to challenge.

We didn’t do this because retail is “the goal”.

We did it because you can’t really claim to be Australia’s first nationwide, locally made dishwasher tablet… if people can’t find you at their local.

Prefer Shopping Online?

We’ll be honest, buying direct is still the best way to support what we’re building.

Selling online helps us:

  • Keep prices lower
  • Reinvest into our impact program
  • Focus on long-term change, not short-term sales

What Makes These the Best Dishwasher Tablets in Australia?

We’ll let you decide, but here’s what we’re aiming for:

  • Performance that actually holds up
  • Sustainability that isn’t just marketing
  • Pricing that feels fair
  • A supply chain you can stand behind
