Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate (SLES)

Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate (SLES) is a versatile anionic surfactant with exceptional foaming and cleansing properties, making it ideal for personal care and household cleaning products.

This clear to pale yellow liquid produces a stable foam that effectively removes dirt, grime, and oils, while being gentle on skin and surfaces.

SLES is soluble in water and organic solvents, and its low surface tension enhances wetting and spreading properties.

Its compatibility with other surfactants and additives makes it easy to formulate and customise products for a wide range of applications, including personal care, household cleaning, and industrial uses.
