TexCare™ soil release polymers for laundry detergents
The TexCare™ range of soil release polymers boosts primary and secondary cleaning power and helps remove stains efficiently, even at low temperatures and in short wash cycles. Available for all kinds of laundry detergents as well as softeners, TexCare™ polymers protect polyester-containing clothes, keeping them clean and looking like new for longer.
How TexCare™ protects fabrics and prevent redeposition
TexCare™ polymers work in different dimensions to deliver cleaning performance in both traditional and modern washing conditions, including cold and quick wash programs. By forming a protective layer on fabrics, TexCare™ soil release polymers prevent dirt from penetrating into polyester-based clothes and capture dirt particles dispersed in the wash water, keeping them from re-depositing on any kind of fabrics. They also support surfactant micelles in removing dirt from fiber surfaces and, through the hydrophilization of the fibers, ensure a more comfortable feel during wear.
Various solutions for different laundry detergent needs
The Terra range brings together bio-waste-based, readily biodegradable soil release polymers with a high Renewable Carbon Index (RCI), from all-round performers for liquid detergents to specialized solutions for concentrated formats and capsules.
With our all-rounder TexCare™ SRN 170 Terra and TexCare SRN 260 Terra, our best-in-class solution for liquid detergents, we offer traditional soil release polymers for a broad range of laundry detergents. Our new innovations TexCare™ Gemini Terra and TexCare™ One Terra bring additional benefits to the range. TexCare Gemini Terra's dual-function provides additional rheology control benefits, whereas TexCare One Terra is the perfect choice for concentrated detergents and capsule formulations due to its excellent compatibility with highly concentrated formulations.
For powder detergents specifically, TexCare™ SRA 300 F delivers highest cleaning performance in an easy-to-use powder form with excellent processability.
The whole range of TexCares provides formulators with tailored solutions to boost detergency, maintain whiteness, and optimize product performance.

Watch how TexCare™ protects your fabrics
TexCare™ soil release polymers prevent oily stains from seeping deep into the fabric, trap suspended dirt that causes graying during washing and the surfactant system to lift off soil. These polymers also protect our environment and resources, reducing the need for cleaning at elevated temperatures and high detergent dosages - helping consumers to save resources and energy and keeping their favorite clothes for longer.
