Glycolipids are an innovative generation of mild surfactants intended for personal care formulations that require effective cleansing with maximum gentleness to the skin and mucous membranes. According to the technical documentation, they provide effective cleansing, rich and creamy foam and excellent skin compatibility.

Derived from renewable sugar-based raw materials, Glycolipids represent a sustainable choice for modern formulations. They are completely biodegradable and show a low ecotoxic potential.

In addition to the cleaning function, Glycolipids have a pronounced ability to solubilize essential oils, fragrances and other lipophilic ingredients, which enable the creation of elegant and stable aqueous formulations

Their thick and creamy foam is easily rinsed off the skin and contributes to a pleasant sensory experience during application. Documentation also shows very high mildness compared to conventional surfactants and the absence of protein denaturation at common application concentrations.
