The role of enzymes in laundry detergents
Uniquely renewable and biodegradable cleaning power
Enzymes are proteins found everywhere in nature. When one substance needs to be transformed into another, nature uses them to speed up and control the process. So if you want to improve your detergent’s efficiency and sustainability, our enzymes can help.
Sourced from renewable microbes
All living things make enzymes, but we collect ours from microbes. That’s because they’re very effective enzyme producers. Microbes are also fully renewable, unlike the sources of fossil-based detergent ingredients. And in our production, we don't even waste the nutrient-rich broth in which we ferment our enzymes. Once we’re finished with it, we prepare it for use as a farm fertilizer.
A biotech toolbox that helps billions of consumers
As consumers across the world do their household chores they face some of the same challenges faced in nature every day. And the consumers who use detergents with our enzymes are dealing with their challenges in just the same way as nature does. We specialize in spotting the connections between consumer challenges and challenges in nature. And we’re experts at harnessing nature’s remarkable solutions to create a toolbox of biosolutions that meet consumers’ needs.
So it’s really no surprise that billions of people use a detergent made with our enzymes every week.
