Surfactant
Cleansing Essentials
Surfactants are cosmetic constituents that can make or break a formulation. Perhaps one of the most vital ingredients in cosmetics, toiletries and personal care products, surfactants are useful in a variety of applications –from cleansing and foaming to thickening, emulsifying and solubilizing and even rendering antimicrobial effects. These surface active agents are compatible with both water and oil, hence they possess the ability to decrease interfacial tension which ultimately determines the performance level of a cleansing formulation.
Prompted by today’s global trends and circumstances, we are witnessing a paradigm shift in consumer perception and regard for cleanliness, safety, efficacy and sustainability of cleansing products. R.A. Kelman Inc., carries a broad array of mild and specialty surfactants for both niche and general applications. With mild cleansing emerging as one of the growing demands in the personal care industry, we specialize in mild surfactants that are environmentally-friendly and gentle yet effective on the skin.
