Colonial Monolaurin is a distilled glyceryl monolaurate. This unique, multifunctional compound can bring added elegance and utility to personal care and pharmaceutical products.

When compared with standard “mono glycerides”, Colonial Monolaurin has many more positive characteristics which are not typically found in just a single product. Colonial Monolaurin can be dispersed in water and dissolved in oil.

Due to its antimicrobial properties, Colonial Monolaurin can contribute to the reduction of bacteria. Any product of this type will be enhanced by Colonial Monolaurin.

1. Suganate 160

Suganate 160 is the first of a new generation of primary surfactants from Colonial Chemicals Inc. It’s an anionic Alkyl Polyglucoside surfactant, so it’s based on coconut oil and sugar. It acts as a primary surfactant for a wide range of personal care products like shampoos, body washes, and hand washes. In addition to having a high degree of derivation from natural, renewable resources, its outstanding property is its extremely low skin and eye irritancy profile. It scored a zero on both the HET-Cam and Mat-Tek Epiocular eye irritancy tests in the USA, truly phenomenal! This means if you are looking to make products for sensitive end users like baby shampoo, feminine hygiene products, facial washes you can start with a primary surfactant that is extremely low irritant as opposed to starting with traditional surfactants and then spending time and money trying to mitigate their irritancy.

2. Aminat G

Aminat G – Lauric Arginate from Vedeqsa is a revolutionary new broad spectrum anti-microbial (preservative) and antimicrobial active for personal care. It is based on natural renewable resources like coconut oil, vegetables and wheat. Its human toxicity profile is so good it’s about to be approved for use in a wide range foods and beverages by Food Science Australia New Zealand (FSANZ)! Applications include mouthwash, deodorants sprays, cosmetic creams and possibly toothpastes. Its unique ability to drastically lower the surface energy of dentine means it can help stop the deposition of bacteria to the tooth surface. This will help in the fight to stop the formation of biofilms that characterise dental plaque. A very interesting molecule.

Both of these new products can be applied where you want to increase your green footprint, but are also highly functional products that can be used successfully for more traditional applications

Come and talk safe and green with the people of Albright and Wilson at stand 11 and 12 at the IFSCC from October 7th to 9th. Remember, we may be irritating but our products aren’t!

Suganate 160 will allow the formulation of both personal care and detergent products that are green, renewable and have a low irritancy.
