1. The SLES detergent contains an ingredient level of up to 70±2%, which results in the formation of a fast and fine foam with an excellent quality.
2. The high foaming surfactant SLES has powerful cleaning power that usually enables a reduction in the proportion of surfactants by about 10%–15%, which helps in reducing the total costs of the product formulation.
3. sodium lauryl ether sulfate 70 biodegrades well, which makes it possible for companies to produce environmentally friendly products.
For detergent, shampoo, and industrial cleaning agent manufacturers, insufficient SLES active ingredient content or uneven EO polymerization can easily lead to problems such as rapid foam disappearance, decreased detergency, unstable product viscosity, and winter stratification. Manufacturers not only must raise formulation costs; they may also lose customers and have to redo their work because the quality of the products isn't reliable.
SLES detergent grade, 70% active ingredients, is one of our products that benefits from a production process involving ethoxylation and sulfation that is highly stable. As a result, the product maintains its stability at such a high level and delivers remarkable foam stability and a good emulsifying effect. Practically, it can boost cleaning performance by about 20%, the duration of the soap foam can be lengthened by around 30%, customers save roughly 35% time and resources as there are fewer changes to recipes, the product is made of a material that can withstand both high and low temperature storage conditions, and in addition, the total cost of the production is lowered.

Upstream Laboratory and Technical Support
Sodium lauryl ether sulphate, as a core surfactant in detergents and daily chemical products, directly affects a product's detergency, foaming performance, and storage stability due to its active ingredient content, EO addition degree, sulfation degree, pH value, unsulfated content, and color. Relying on upstream cooperative production bases and a CNAS-accredited laboratory, we have established a complete surfactant testing system. Our laboratory is equipped with over 30 analytical instruments, including high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography (GC), automatic potentiometric titrator, foam performance tester, Brookfield viscometer, and surface tension meter, enabling comprehensive testing of active ingredients, unsulfated content, sodium sulfate, sodium chloride, pH value, viscosity, and foam stability. While we are performing formulation-related tasks for the customer, we can also run various tests related to product thickness, resistance in hard water, freeze-thaw cycle, compatibility as well as long-term storage stability testing, all as per the customer's formulation requirements. In this way, we will support our customers in optimizing detergent, shampoo, and shower gel formulations that will make them more competitive in the market place.
Customer Case Study
A dishwashing liquid OEM factory in South America discovered that its product viscosity significantly decreased after high-temperature transportation, leading to reduced foaming and degreasing capabilities reported by consumers, resulting in some order returns. Following a technical assessment, we recommended that the customer adopt our 70% high-activity lauryl ether sodium sulfate and optimize the formula ratio. After the product upgrade, the customer's dishwashing liquid foam duration increased by approximately 35%, degreasing efficiency improved by approximately 22%, high-temperature storage stability improved by approximately 30%, and the number of production line formula adjustments decreased by approximately 40%. The product successfully passed customer acceptance and entered the Middle East and South American markets.
Product Packaging and Transportation
The product is available in three standard packaging types: 170kg plastic drums, 220kg plastic drums, and 1000kg IBC containers. Pallet packaging and ISO Tank bulk shipping solutions can be provided according to the customer's purchase quantity. The packaging drums are made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which has excellent corrosion resistance and sealing performance, effectively preventing leakage and contamination during transportation. Suitable for domestic transportation, full container load (FCL) shipping, and international export.
