Abstract: The invention relates to methods for producing a detergent or cleaning agent dosing unit, comprising the following steps: a) providing a detergent or cleaning agent shaped body in the form of an annular tablet having a cavity with at least two opening faces; b) sealing one opening face of the cavity with a prefabricated, filled and closed water-soluble container by linking the prefabricated sachet with the detergent or cleaning agent shaped body; c) filling the cavity with a composition that has a detergent or cleaning action. The inventive methods allow to jointly produce solid and liquid or flowable detergent or cleaning agent compositions in separate areas of a compact dosing unit.

Abstract: Processes comprising: (a) providing a molding having a cavity, wherein the cavity has an opening on a surface of the molding; (b) applying a first film material over the opening of the cavity; (c) thermoforming the first film material into the cavity; and (d) introducing a substance selected from the group consisting of washing actives, cleaning actives and mixtures thereof into the cavity are described for the preparation of detergent/cleaning agent, and in particular, pre-dosed combination products containing solid and liquid phases.
