Sustainable, biobased surfactants for home and personal care products
By using agricultural waste as feedstock, we have developed a new process to produce green surfactants that delivers suphate-free, dioxane-free and low carbon impact credentials.

Surfactants are commodity chemicals which finds application in different consumer and industrial sectors
Main applications are in cleaning, personal care, agriculture, painting, polymerization and other minor applications such as pharamaceuticals and electronics. The most commercialized surfactant today are the linear benzene sulfonate (LAS) and sodium laureth sulfate (SLES).

The problem with detergents
Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) is the most commercialized surfactant, particularly in laundry products, which is derived from fossil fuels.

Bioataraxis has the solution
In answer to this we have created EcoSaf, a non-toxic, biodegradable and sustainable detergent made from bio-waste from agricultural activities as its chemical feedstock.

We aim to bridge the gap between conventional and green detergents.
Our technology delivers better performance than comparable bio-based products. The current market for bio-based laundry detergents is struggling to expand because products are expensive and have limited performance.
