9 Market trends Hand Dishwashing liquids More superconcentrated hand dish washing liquids and small sized bottles Focus on grease removal Non-corrosive labeling Scope to move into new cleaning areas Cleaning outdoor items Use as handsoap Cleaning other kitchen surfaces Handdishwashing growth opportunities: performance in cold water Source: Mintel GNDP

10 Outline EOC Introduction Trends in Hand Dishwashing Liquids How to improve the Washing Up Liquid performance Guideline formulations

11 Performance improvements HOW TO IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR HAND DISHWAHSING LIQUID? Focus on the effect of type of co-surfactants Focus on concentration Focus on ph of the formulation What about performance in cold water? What is the effect on the foam behaviour?

12 Co-surfactants in hand dishwashing liquids Product name INCI NAME Concentration limits to avoid corrosive labeling Euroquat HC47VG Cocamidopropyl Betaine Up to 8,7 % Euroxide CPO Cocamidopropylamine Oxide Up to 2,7 % Preservative Free Mild Coconut oil based Applicable for Ecolabel formulations Good cleansing properties Viscosity builders Foam boosting

13 Natural Origin Product name Renewable Carbon Index (%)* Natural source Euroquat HC47VG Ca. 67 coconut oil Euroxide CPO Ca. 74 coconut oil Euroquat PK47 Ca. 68 palm kernel oil *Renewable Carbon Index (%) = C of natural origin/ total C * 100

14 Washing Up Cleaning Performance Test Cleaning performance Test protocol: Preparation of Fat Mix Vegetable Oils & Animal Fats Pre-treatment of plates and overnight in fridge Beaker with water at 20 C or 45 C and detergent Clean the plates until a permanent hole in foam layer Count the number of washed plates The higher the number of plates the better the cleaning performance
