SLES Mixing & Dilution Unit

What is SLES

SLES is an acronym for Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate. This compound is a surfactant (surface-active agent) known for its excellent foaming and cleansing properties. It’s used in both sanitary and industrial applications, commonly found in products such as soaps, shampoos, liquid detergents, toothpaste, and liquid body gels, to list a few.

Manufacturers typically purchase SLES in a highly viscous 70% concentration. Before it can be used, it must be diluted to around 27%, often requiring advanced systems due to the significant change in viscosity.
