Hey Dad — Let’s Talk Mannanase

Picture this: You’re packing your kid’s lunch, you blink, and suddenly there’s a swirl of peanut butter, jelly, pudding, and who-knows-what glued to their shirt and yours too.

Sure, you could scrub it with regular soap and pray. Or you could let Mannanase do what it was born to do: slice through that sticky mess like a hot knife through, well… gum.

Let’s break it down, dad style.

What Is Mannanase?

Mannanase is an enzyme, think of it like a microscopic ninja that slices apart mannans. Mannans are sticky plant gums used to thicken sauces, keep ice cream smooth, and glue your kid’s snack foods together. They’re also why half the food stains in your house feel like dried glue.

Regular soap tries to wash it away. Mannanase breaks it apart.

How Does Mannanase Work in Cleaning Products?

Sticky messes cling because of the gums and binders manufacturers put in food to make it creamy, spreadable, or shelf-stable. Mannanase targets these glue-like molecules, breaks them down into tiny bits, and makes them easy to rinse out.

Combine Mannanase with other DadMode enzymes  like Amylase (starches), Lipase (fats), and Protease (proteins)  and suddenly your stain remover is like the Avengers of mess clean-up.

Why Do Cleaning Products Use Mannanase?

Because modern messes are extra sticky and dad life is full of them.

DadMode packs Mannanase into our formulas because:

  • It tackles gooey, gummy messes that soap alone can’t handle.
  • It prevents stains from becoming permanent glue spots.
  • It works in cold or warm water, so you don’t have to boil your laundry.
  • It’s biodegradable, non-toxic, and fabric-friendly.

Is Mannanase Safe for Kids, Pets, and Dad’s Favorite Hoodie?

Absolutely. Mannanase is food-safe when used in processing, and cleaning-safe in DadMode.

  • It’s non-toxic and biodegradable
  • Gentle on fabrics and skin (when used as directed)
  • Just don’t dump it on your snack or let your toddler drink it
