kg of surfactants used / year
Surfactants. They’re everywhere.
Not only do they wash your hands, clothes, surfaces and car, they protect crops, enhance foods, help colour textiles… and flow into oceans & soil.
The world consumes 20 million tonnes of surfactants every year.
Most of them are made from petrochemicals, and most aren’t biodegradable
That’s why we invented Spherelose®.
