Solutions for Liquid Hand Soaps

Formulating antibacterial moisturizing hand soaps 


Hand washing is the first and easiest step to stop the spread of germs and potentially harmful viruses. However, performing it often can strip the hands of their natural moisture. 

Miracare® SLB 365 W allows the formulation of versatile rinse-off products with unique consumer benefits and claims. It enables the incorporation of high levels of oils, and high contents of actives such as antibacterial agents. Miracare® SLB 365 W enables the development of all-in-one liquid hand soaps that clean off bacteria while also moisturizing, keeping the hands soft and smooth.

Formulating clear sulfate-free liquid hand soaps


Formulate a clear sulfate-free hand soap that cleanses without harsh chemicals; one that is mild enough for sensitive skin thanks to our specialty sulfate-free surfactants. Its gentle nature makes it excellent for use in high-frequency environments such as daycares, hospitals, and doctors’ offices. 

The combination of Geropon® T 77 PC MB and Miranol® Ultra L32 helps alleviate the harsh skin feel that soap is notorious for. This combination provides a rich, dense and elastic foam.
