Dressed for success
Clothing has evolved from being merely a functional item which protects the human body from external influences to be an expression of personal style and status. With this evolution the requirements of consumers in terms of garment’s care have also changed. Laundry detergents are not only expected to effectively clean the clothes but also to offer benefits like color and garment protection as well as skin care properties. Fabric conditioners must soften the fibers and leave a fresh and long-lasting smell in the clothing.
Cognis Care Chemicals has a comprehensive selection of ingredients that ranges from basic surfactants based on natural, renewable raw materials to special performance additives offering you the right solution for your laundry detergent and fabric conditioner formulation needs.
