With STRUCTURE CEL 8000 M, you can improve foam properties, reduce surfactant levels and create milder products with improved economics-an approach that always makes sense.

Foaming Agents

Category overview

Foaming agents are clear to milky liquids that create rich, stable lather in cleansers, shampoos, and shaving creams. They enhance sensory appeal, rinseability, and performance.

Popular INCI ingredients in this segment include SLS, decyl glucoside, and coco-glucoside. Sulfate-free, mild surfactants are trending. Regulatory guidelines limit potential irritants, especially in sensitive-skin products.
