Product Applications

Suitable for a Variety of Cleaning Formulations:

The performance of this products is specifically designed to effectively tackle greasy soils of the type found in household and industrial and institutional end-uses. During the development process, we have carefully optimized the performance and degreasing properties to be suitable for use in a range of cleaning applications.

Hard surface cleaning

Tackling a variety of soils, including formulations using moderate amounts of caustic to enhance performance

Liquid laundry

Helps addressing challenging sebum (and other oily soils), which have become more difficult to remove in low temperature wash systems Compatible with anionic cleaning systems

Automatic dishwash

As standard dishwash machine temperatures decline, high melting fats are an increasing problem, Berol® Nexxt surfactant can help with degreasing action

Manual dishwash

Complements the function of nonionic surfactants used widely as cleaning agents in liquid dish-soap, including concentrated product formats

New Product Information

Soon to be available using biobased ethylene oxide:

Nouryon will soon introduce biobased ethylene oxide (EO) in our EU operations. This means that Berol® Nexxt surfactant will be available in a form using biobased EO. In such a case, this will take the product renewable carbon index (RCI) from a respectable 29% (standard product) to >95% (using biobased EO), should the customer desire. Using biobased EO will significantly reduce overall carbon footprint of the product and make it “essentially biobased” according to EN 17035. The product with biobased EO will be certified according to ISCC PLUS standards.
