Biocides for Household and Industrial Cleaning Chemicals

Preserving Household and Industrial Cleaning Chemicals

We offer a broad selection of wet-state preservatives and antimicrobial biocidal products for cleaning applications including laundry detergent, fabric softener, dish wash detergent, multi-purpose cleaner, non-porous hard surface cleaners, floor polish, and wipes.

Biocidal products are critical additives for the protection of active ingredients, raw materials, and end-use products against harmful organisms to protect them from spoilage and the growth of micro-organisms.

Use our selector guide to find the right in-can preservative based on your specific formulation details or review the preservative options below.
