Product
PG68
Why replace SLES
- Plant-derived origin instead of an oil-linked feedstock base
- Natural origin: polysaccharides + fatty alcohols
- Milder surfactant — gentle on skin, with a moisturising after-feel
- Suitable for sensitive-skin and baby-care lines
- Non-ethoxylated — SLES is made by ethoxylation, which may leave trace 1,4-dioxane; PG68 is not
