Carrageenan: The Natural Secret for Effective Home Cleaning

In today’s world, where we seek more natural and sustainable solutions for every aspect of our lives, home cleaning is no exception. At Gelymar, we understand this need, and that’s why we incorporate innovative, environmentally friendly ingredients into our developments.

Main Applications

Cleaning Gels

Our products enable the creation of firm, self-stable gels that maintain their shape over time, reducing syneresis.

The gel matrix formed by carrageenans encapsulates and gradually releases active ingredients and fragrances, ensuring the uniform distribution of particles or components within the gel, preventing sedimentation.

They boast excellent compatibility with a wide range of surfactants, offering great flexibility in designing cleaning products without compromising stability.

During cleaning, they increase contact with surfaces, making the process highly efficient.

Foaming Formulations

A key advantage is that carrageenans can thicken aqueous detergent compositions without inducing phase separation when interacting with foaming surfactants. This is crucial for maintaining product homogeneity throughout its shelf life.

Carrageenans allow for viscosity adjustment of the formulation without negatively affecting the product’s foaming capacity. This is essential for achieving an ideal texture that is easy to pour, dispense, and apply.

Air Freshener Gels

Carrageenans enable the creation of gels with a firm and cohesive structure that maintains its shape over time, helping to prevent syneresis and ensuring the integrity and appearance of the air freshener.

The gel matrix formed by carrageenans traps fragrance molecules and releases them gradually and consistently into the environment. This ensures the aroma lasts for an extended period, optimizing product performance.

Gelymar’s product range allows for air fresheners with varying levels of transparency, from translucent to completely transparent and brilliant products. This characteristic is highly valued in air fresheners as it enhances the perception of cleanliness and modernity, allowing for the inclusion of visually attractive colors or decorations.

These advantages are crucial for creating home cleaning products and gel air fresheners that are not only effective but also visually appealing and pleasant to use, making them stand out in the market.
