Main Applications

Facial Cleansers & Sensitive Skin

A primary surfactant for sensitive-skin facial cleansers, cleansing foams, and makeup removers — gentle cleansing at skin-compatible pH without stripping natural oils, leaving a soft, non-tight after-feel.

Sulfate-Free Shampoos & Body Wash

Delivers rich, creamy, stable foam in sulfate-free shampoo and shower-gel formulations, maintains hair and skin moisture balance, and pairs well with betaines and glucosides; well suited to colour-treated-hair products.

Baby Care & Natural Cosmetics

Ultra-mild and tear-free-formula compatible for baby washes and shampoos, and a renewable, 100% biodegradable choice for COSMOS/natural-certified and EU Green Deal-aligned personal-care lines.
