Description

Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate is a high-purity, anionic surfactant derived from renewable amino acid and fatty acid sources. This compound is valued for its exceptional mildness, excellent foaming properties, and superior biodegradability, making it a cornerstone ingredient for high-performance, eco-conscious formulations. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and premium detergent industries seeking to replace traditional sulfates with gentler, skin-compatible alternatives.

Application

• Premium Facial Cleansers & Makeup Removers: As a primary surfactant in gentle, non-irritating cleansers for sensitive skin.
• Baby Care Products: In shampoos, body washes, and bubble baths where mildness and safety are paramount.
• Sulfate-Free Shampoos & Conditioners: To provide rich, stable lather without stripping hair of its natural oils.
• Skin Care Serums & Emulsions: Functioning as a high-quality emulsifier and foaming agent in lotions and creams.
• Oral Care Products: Used in mild toothpastes and mouthwashes as a foaming and cleaning agent.
• High-End Liquid Hand Soaps & Body Washes: Delivering a luxurious feel and creamy lather in rinse-off products.
• Biodegradable & Eco-Friendly Detergents: As a key surfactant in green cleaning formulations for home and institutional use.
