Sustainable performance for modern cleaning

BASF’s Glucopon® 480 product is a 100% active, nonionic surfactant in the alkyl polyglucoside (APG) class, designed for formulators seeking high performance with a cleaner environmental profile. Derived from natural fatty alcohols and glucose, this mild yet effective ingredient is great as a primary or secondary surfactant in a variety of cleaning applications, but it truly excels in laundry applications.

Why Glucopon® 480 stands out:
 

  • 100% active, naturally derived: made from glucose and fatty alcohols, it’s a nonionic surfactant that supports clean label goals in laundry formulations
  • Proven performance in laundry: enhances soil removal, wetting and foaming for brighter, cleaner clothes wash after wash
  • Eco-conscious chemistry: biodegradable, low toxicity and compatible with a wide range of surfactant systems
  • Regulatory ready: helps reduce 1,4-dioxane, supports Prop 65 compliance and meets eco-certification criteria
