Iselux™
Iselux™ is our latest breakthrough in surfactant technology. Iselux™ is a sulfate-free mild cleanser that can be used as a primary or secondary surfactant and is ideally used where a dense, luxurious foam and elegant after-feel is desired. It produces good slip, low tack on drying and has excellent water solubility properties which allow it to be used in creating clear liquid cleansing systems. Iselux™ can also be used to prepare structured systems allowing high oil content to be incorporated into formulations without loss of foaming performance.

The Finsolv® Benzoate Esters are state-of-the-art emollients for all Personal Care and Cosmetic products. These multifunctional cosmetic grade ester-emollients display low toxicity, impart a talc-like feel and are excellent solvents for many cosmetic "actives", including sunscreens and fragrances.

Natrlquest™ E30
Natrlquest E30 is a unique, biodegradable chelating agent that is particularly effective as a sequesterant for heavy metal ions. In formulated systems it acts as a preservative potentiator and as an anti-oxidant.

Pureact Taurates
The Pureact Taurates are high flash-foam, mild surfactants useful in all Personal Care products regardless of pH. Their foaming properties and toxicological profiles make them useful in a wide range of shampoo and bath formulations where they are used as the prime surfactant in both transparent and opaque systems.

Pureact Isethionates

The Pureact Isethionates (SCI) are the preferred detergents in combo- and syndet toilet bars.
