Well, Steffen, you should look at the link that I provided before answering.
HUT is a company in Germany and provides a website under that name, selling maitnenance products.
And pray tell me what "home usage test" has to do with a liquid washing agent?

disagree  Steffen Walter: Doesn't fit the detergent context at all. / Home usage tests are a common market research method applied to all sorts of products.
1 hr

neutral  Mair A-W (PhD): the website you provide is a company that sells hats (& Steffen's link in his comment to the other answer specifically mentions dish detergents, which i think answers your 'pray tell me'...). HUT does *not* sell washing agents under your link -- see DB!
2 hrs
  -> Yes it does, and it is a company that also sells washing agents undere "Pflegehinweise". SO it is the washing agents beind sold on the HUT.de website - which still makes HUT a brand name or a company name.

disagree  David Moore (X): Sorry, Alex, but I think "HUT" really does stand for "hat(s)" here - see my discussion entry.
5 hrs
  -> Yes, of courye --> and it's the name of a website.
