    摘要: A recyclable container containing a substrate treatment liquid, configured for fluid connection to a fluid communication system of a substrate treatment machine e.g. washing machine, the storage container comprising:



    (i) a reservoir containing a multi-dose stock of the substrate treatment liquid;
    (ii) a container connector which is designed to be removably and fluidly connectable with a machine connector of the substrate treatment machine, said connectors together forming a container-machine connection, such that the substrate treatment liquid can controllably flow from the reservoir via the container-machine connection to said fluid communication system; and
    (iii) a valve which is movable between an open and a closed position to control the flow of substrate treatment liquid from the storage container, said valve comprising a biasing member such that the valve is biased toward an open or closed position within the housing; and
    wherein the reservoir, container connector and valve comprise a recyclable plastic and that the biasing member comprises a recyclable plastic having a shore A hardness of 30-95 degrees, preferably 40-90 degrees, more preferably 45-85 degrees.
