Cotton clothes often start to feel rough to the touch after a few washes. Their colors also start to dull. The cause is bobbling, or fuzz and pills on the surface of the clothes. Cellulases target the tiny, fibers that come loose from cotton threads over time. The longer ones protrude from the surface of the fabric to cause bobbling. Care cellulases target and cut these longer threads, making them essential for laundry detergents that promise consumers fabric care.
Designed for tough conditions
During storage enzymes can lose activity over time when exposed to tough conditions.
In powder detergents high temperature, humidity or bleach exposure over longer periods may cause the enzymes to lose activity.
In liquid detergents enzymes are stable in the right mix of pH, water content, polyol content and protease inhibition. When exposed to high temperatures or if your formulation needs go beyond ideal conditions for the enzymes, enzyme activity could drop over time.
Because your detergents may face tough on their journey to consumers, we developed this product to be highly stable. The result is consistent performance, even after exposure to tough conditions.Performs well in cold washes
In many parts of the world, washing in cold water is standard. In the US and Europe, where doing laundry is one of the most energy-intensive household chores, environmentally-conscious consumers are choosing cold washes to save energy and to make their clothes last longer. That’s why we developed this product to give consumers high performance even at low temperatures.
This product contains enzymes. While enzymes are safe to use in consumer applications, they need correct handling in working environments to ensure workers’ safety.
Indeed, repeated inhalation of enzyme dust or aerosols resulting from improper handling may induce sensitization and may cause allergic type 1 reactions in sensitized individuals.
Please follow the precautionary handling recommendations below:
- Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray
- Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing
- In case of inadequate ventilation wear respiratory protection
- IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing
- If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTER or a doctor
- Store in a dry place. Store in a closed container
- Dispose of contents/containers in accordance with local regulations
