Colour Catcher

Colour Catcher is a brand name of colour run prevention products manufactured by Spotless Group. Colour Catcher is distributed by Spotless Punch in the United Kingdom, by Punch Industries in Ireland, in Spain as Atrapa Color, by Eau Ecarlate in France as Décolor Stop, and by Guaber in Italy as Acchiappacolore.

Colour Catcher was invented by Pat McNamee at Irish company Punch Industries in 1993. The product was created in the company's labs at Little Island, Cork. The product range is an international best-seller, and the market leader in colour protection.

Colour Catcher products are claimed to prevent colour runs in washing machine cycles and allow coloured and whites to be washed together without incurring color run accidents. The sheet (Colour Catcher is sold in sheets) is intended to attract the excess dyes released during the washing process by garments and absorb them, before they have the ability to transfer onto other clothes. There are several other products under the Colour Catcher name, including an oxi-action stain remover and a sheet that is claimed to restore and maintains clothes' whiteness.

The Colour Catcher brand is marketed in the United States by S.C. Johnson under its Shout brand (the US product omits the "u" in colour, in accordance with American English). Colour Catcher is available in most European states. Colour Catcher is also sold in Cyprus, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and Russia.
