Home Care, Industrial and Institutional Cleaning

Moving Beyond Clean

Opening the door to innovative cleaning solutions

Whether you’re developing a high-efficiency laundry detergent that goes beyond primary cleaning or a formulation for commercial kitchen surface care that has to cut tough grease, you know it’s not as easy as it might seem to deliver efficiency, multifunctional performance and sustainability in a single product. Through collaboration we can create more sustainable products without sacrificing performance. Our broad portfolio of solutions includes:

  • Antifoams, surfactants, chelants, solvents, dispersants and polymers that enable high-performance fabric care such as high-efficiency laundry detergents, monodose formulations and laundry additives
  • Surfactants, dispersants, chelants, solvents and rheology modifiers that improve hard surface care formulations so they clean more efficiently
  • Floor care polymers that protect, maintain and add shine in floor polishes and sealers
  • Dispersants, surfactants, chelants and specialty polymers that help control scale and remove dirt in dish and warewash applications
