Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is a widely used anionic surfactant found in cleaning products, cosmetics, and personal care formulations.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate - SLS is produced by synthesizing lauryl alcohol—which is derived from coconut or palm oil—with sulfuric acid to form a sulfate ester. This ester is then neutralized with sodium hydroxide to yield Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. SLS is a highly effective surfactant, known for its strong ability to break down oily stains and residues, making it a key ingredient in both industrial and household applications.
It is widely used in industrial products, including engine degreasers, floor cleaners, and car wash solutions due to its powerful cleaning capabilities. In lower concentrations, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is also found in household and personal care products such as toothpaste, shampoos, shaving foams, and general cleaning agents.
SLS functions as a surfactant, foam enhancer, and thickening agent in these formulations. It is 100% derived from natural sources, specifically Palm Kernel Oil and Coconut Oil, making it a versatile and widely accepted ingredient in both industrial and consumer applications.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS-95) in powder form is a high-quality, anionic foaming surfactant, widely used as a base for a variety of foamy cleansers. SLS is one of the most commonly used primary surfactants in oral care, personal care, and home care formulations. It delivers excellent cleansing, foaming, and emulsifying properties.
In addition to consumer products, SLS is extensively applied in industrial formulations, including floor cleaners, engine degreasers, and machine wash detergents. In toothpaste and similar applications, it is typically used at lower concentrations to provide mild but effective cleaning action.
