Bringing Technical Expertise and Cleaning Chemistry Together to Meet the Requirements of Personal Care Manufacturers

Every day you face the toughest cleaning obstacles: ingredients that make great products for your customers but create challenges for your production equipment. Over time, you may have found cleaning options that work, but are they truly meeting your expectations? 

Do you have to run cleaning processes multiple times to finally reach an acceptable clean? Are you constantly having to find cleaning solutions for new product formulations? Are cleaning challenges taking time away from producing products?


Overall, does it feel like you just haven’t found the
perfect match? It’s time for that to change.

With Ecolab Life Sciences, your equipment is clean – the first time, every time. Our Technical Experts and Research and Development team works with you to ensure you have the best cleaning solution that’s optimized for your specific soils, formulations and production equipment.

Products Matched for Personal Care Challenges

The ingredients you use are unique to the personal care industry; however, most cleaning products weren’t designed, formulated, or tested against these complex ingredients. Unlike most general-purpose products that are designed as one size fits all, Ecolab Life Sciences has developed a line of cleaning and sanitizing products dedicated to the personal care and cosmetic manufacturing industries and their challenges.

Research and Development Labs That Match Your Formulations with the Right Cleaning Solutions

Each ingredient and formulation you use requires a unique cleaning solution. When working with Ecolab Life Sciences, our Research and Development team thoroughly tests and studies your formulation, on your surfaces, to make sure the cleaning solution we recommend is completely effective at the optimal dilution and application.
