waterless home care

who creates innovative waterless home care formulations? we do.

 

Global warming from carbon emissions, increasing packaging waste and water shortage are some of the most critical problems faced by the world today. Due to increasing awareness of the adverse environmental impact of household products, consumer preference for sustainable products is increasing.

However, most household products currently in the market still utilize excessive amounts of water during formulation, have a large carbon footprint in shipping and require large packaging that results in excessive waste.

see our waterless formulations:

Ashland presents Ecofriendly, waterless formulations for dish cleaning, laundry detergents and fabric conditioning that will allow brands to create more sustainable home care products that provide the following benefits:

  1. Conserve water by utilizing anhydrous formats that reduce water demand during manufacturing
  2. Reduce carbon emissions by creating lighter and smaller products, that are easier to store and ship, and therefore, are more suitable for ecommerce.
  3. Minimize packaging waste, by creating products that use less packaging, and can be packed using alternatives such as paper.

Please join Ashland on our journey to deliver the high efficacy and performance that consumers demand while improving the sustainability profile of home care products.
