    • Rheology Modifiers

      Rheology is a central factor in the relationship between consumers and cleaning products. As one of the main sensorial attributes of a product, it is an essential cue in the consumer’s perception of quality and performance. more

    • Biocides & Actives

      Robust preservation of finished liquid formulations in a cost-effective manner is crucial for Household & Institutional Cleaning formulators.
