HI&I and car care
We manufacture a unique range of thickeners that are ideal for formulations used in the HI&I (Household, Industrial & Institutional) and car care markets.
Utilising a variety of chemistries, our products offer many advantages not found in the competitive realm of thickeners. The HI& I (Household, Industrial & Institutional) market is often referred to as the Jan San (Janitorial Supply) market. As the industry well knows, cleaner formulations won’t work if they have little contact time with the surface they’re trying to clean.
HI&I characteristics
- Sheer thinning allowing for better wettability/contact time and product performance
- Broad pH range allows formulators to thicken products at both ends of the spectrum such as shower, tile, and grout cleaners, oven cleaners, d-limonene degreasers
- Supplied as liquids
- Can be added at any place in the formulation
- Extremely efficient
