Is non biological laundry detergent a thing in China?

I can’t seem to find a non biological laundry detergent in GZ. All the supermarket detergents have enzymes added.

For context in the UK you can get biological detergents (with added enzymes to break down protein etc.) and non-biological detergents (no enzymes added, relies purely on ‘soap’ for cleansing).

I have sensitive skin and keep coming up in hives from my clothing, when in China. I noticed even the ‘sensitive skin’ laundry liquids are biological. We literally went to 3 different malls with international sections, couldn’t find any. Even laundry liquids designed for kids and babies contain enzymes. My Chinese SO is convinced that non biological detergents don’t exist in China.

Is she right? Do they exist?

Otherwise will have to order online, pay 200RMB plus to a specialist importer, which is ridiculous.
