Introduction
Lauryl Glucoside is an alkyl polyglucoside (APG) type surfactant created by reacting lauryl alcohol (from coconut or palm kernel oil) with glucose. It is non-toxic, 100% biodegradable, and derived from renewable raw materials. Its mildness and ability to improve the performance of other surfactants make it a preferred choice in cosmetic and personal care formulations focused on safety and sustainability.
Application
Lauryl Glucoside is widely used in personal care products such as sulfate-free shampoos, body cleansers, baby washes, and facial cleansers. It provides gentle yet effective cleansing while maintaining skin hydration. In household applications, it is also found in dishwashing liquids and surface cleaners for its low toxicity and strong cleaning performance.
Packaging
The product is typically available in 25 kg plastic drums, 200 kg HDPE barrels, or 1000 kg IBC totes. All packaging options are sealed and clearly labeled to ensure product integrity during transportation and storage. Custom packaging can be arranged according to customer specifications.
Usage Instructions
Lauryl Glucoside should be incorporated into the aqueous phase of the formulation. Recommended usage levels range from 1% to 10%, depending on the desired cleansing and foaming effect. It is compatible with other surfactants and can be blended to reduce skin irritation or improve product texture. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and tightly close the container after each use.
