Convenience and effectiveness in a nutshell
Today a clean home is not only appealing but also part of a consumer’s healthy lifestyle. To ensure that kitchen, bathroom and all other areas in the household are always flawless they must be regularly cleaned. However, in these days people want to spend less time on household chores. They demand that modern cleaners are effective on soils and dirt so that the cleaning of dishes and hard surfaces is easy and quick. In addition, they expect their products to be gentle to the skin and harmless to the environment.
For the creation of convenient hard surface cleaners, Cognis Care Chemicals has virtually all necessary ingredients in its product portfolio, as well as the formulation know-how and market knowledge to offer you the right product concept at the right time.
With our comprehensive range of surfactants, pearlizers, emulsifiers, polymers, solubilisers and much more we assist you in the formulation of top-performing hard surface cleaners as well as manual and automatic dishwashing products that take the strain out of daily household chores.

Manual dish detergents
When using a dishwashing detergent consumers expect to get squeaky clean dishes in an easy and quick way. Efficient manual dishwashing products must remove food soils, cut stubborn grease, have a lasting foaming capacity as well as pleasant appearance and fragrance. Not to forget their mildness to the user’s skin.
Cognis Care Chemicals supports you with a variety of ingredients with specific properties for individual formulations and product claims, to develop dishwashing products that deliver consistently cleaner tableware, e.g.:
Glucopon® (alkyl polyglucosides) surfactants obtained from vegetable, renewable raw materials for effective foamy, natural and mild dishwashing formulations.
Dehyton® (betaines, amphoacetates, amine oxides) as co-surfactants.
Dehydol® with great fat removing and fat-emulsifying properties.
Eumulgin® (emulsifiers / solubilizers) for optimized formulation stability and good performance at a broad range of perfume oils.
Euperlan® (pearlshine and opacifier) concentrates for enhanced product appearance.
Texapon® (anionic base surfactant) derived from natural alcohols with strong cleaning and foaming properties.
Automatic dish detergents
The perfect touch for a successful dinner is a sparkling table set with shiny crockery, glasses and cutlery. Multifunctional automatic dish detergents (ADD) - so called “x”-in-1 detergents, combine cleaning, rinsing and water softening systems that enable spotless, film free and clean dishes out of the dishwasher. Rinse aids enable water to run down uniformly in order to reduce the formation of water droplets or smears on the tableware.
Cognis Care Chemicals has developed special ingredients with a good combination of surface properties and solubility for autodish detergents that ensure spotless shiny tableware, e.g.:
Dehypon® rinse surfactants—for efficient multifunctional autodish and for rinse aid products.
Dehypon® GRA, an easy to handle granule for efficient multifunctional autodish detergents, especially suited for phosphate-free formulations
Glucopon® (alkyl polyglucosides) surfactants obtained from vegetable, renewable raw materials that fit all types of ADD products, whether delivered as paste, liquid or granules.
Consumers have high expectations when using household cleaning products. Whether all purpose-cleaners, bathroom cleaners, wipes or other application, required are convenient products with powerful cleaning properties to ensure cleanness at home and safeness for the surfaces, the users and the environment alike.
At Cognis Care Chemicals we offer a broad palette of products that allows the creation of innovative and first-rate quality hard surface products, e.g.:
Glucopon® (alkyl polyglucosides) surfactants obtained from renewable, plant-derived raw materials for powerful cleaning performance, mildness to skin and compatibility to surfaces.
Polyquart® (polymers) for glossy, streak-free and easy to clean surfaces.
Dehydol® with excellent wetting and cleaning properties and Dehypon® (nonionic surfactants) for optimized wetting and foaming properties.
Texapon® (anionic base surfactants) primarily derived from natural alcohols for hard surface cleaners with optimal cleaning properties.
Sulfopon® (anionic base surfactants) mainly derived from natural alcohols for hard surface cleaners with strong cleaning properties.
