Solutions for Consumer Problems:

Protein Stains

Our range of performance proteases hydrolyzes insoluble proteins into soluble peptides and amino acids, effectively removing challenging stains like blood, grass, and milk.

 

Starch Stains

Excelling in low temperature conditions, our powerful amylases break starchy stains into oligosacharrides that can be washed away leaving clothes fresh and clean.

Gum Stains

Our superior mannanases cleave the β-1,4 linkages between mannose units through hydrolysis, eliminating gum-based stains from foods like ice-cream, chilled desserts and dairy products.

Oily Stains

Performing under stressed conditions, the Nutrition & Biosciences Lipase degrades lipids so that greasy foods like mayonnaise, cooking oil, and beef lard are more easily removed from garments during the wash process.

Fruit Stains

Our stain-busting Pectate Lyase works hard on nature’s toughest challenges and shifts high-pectin stains like fruit and baby-food.

Fabric Care

Our cellulases enhance colors and brighten whites by removing broken fibers known as cotton pills during the wash process. Even in protease containing formulations, our cellulases leave cottons looking smooth and new.

Multi-Benefit Solutions

Our powerful portfolio of detergent enzymes allows our biotechnology experts to design multi-enzyme solutions that unlock a new level of broad-spectrum cleaning.
