China approves Iselux surfactants

Innospec has revealed that its Iselux (INCI: Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate) range of sulfate and 1,4-dioxane free surfactant technology, has been approved for use in China.

Iselux is a clear, mild and natural surfactant that is available in liquid and solid form and is currently used in over 3,000 body, hair and other personal care products.

“This approval not only opens the door for Iselux sales for the first time in China, but also substantially expands the breadth of premium formulation alternatives that we can offer our customers in this important market,” said Bruce McDonald, president of Innospec Performance Chemicals.

“Furthermore, this approval gives our customers the option to standardise their global formulations and simplify their supply-chains around an Iselux chassis in all geographies.”
