Suga®Boost 050 is a naturally-derived performance surfactant suitable for laundry and naturally-based exterior cleaner formulations. Cleaning performance is higher than traditional surfactants such as DDBSA, SLES, and NP-9 in removing food soils, animal grease, and protein soil and meets demands for high-performance green cleaning formulations. Suga®Boost 050 is 1,4-Dioxane-free.

Suga®Boost 050 has mild characteristics in comparison to regulated surfactants such as sulfates, alcohol alkoxylates, Coco DEA, and betaines. Suga®Boost 050 is useful in formulations for laundry and naturally-based exterior cleaners. Suga®Boost 050 is stable in hydrogen peroxide. All substances are readily biodegradable per OECD 301 methods. This product meets the criteria for a surfactant under the EU Detergents Regulation (EC) 648/2004. SAFER CHOICE: The Safer Choice Program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency certified Suga®Boost 050 as Acceptable for use in Safer Choice-certified products and for listing on CleanGredients as a surfactant. Suga®Boost 050 also meets criteria for direct release under EPA's Safer Choice Standard and the use limit for this ingredient no longer applies. Direct release products are approved in outdoor applications that are likely to bypass sewage treatment. Products include home car washes, cleaners for use in power washers, boat cleaners, drilling muds, graffiti removers, fleet disinfectants, window cleaners, and the like.
