Product Description
Foam Plus is a specialty surfactant blend designed to enhance foam stability and cleaning efficiency in industrial and commercial detergent formulations. It is a viscous pale yellow liquid with mild odor, fully soluble in water and widely used across detergent manufacturing, textile cleaning, food processing, and hospitality sanitation within East Africa. Foam Plus improves surface wetting, dirt removal, and reduces chemical consumption while boosting detergent performance. Supplied by Zenco Systems Ltd in plastic drums, it is stable under typical industrial storage conditions and requires safe handling due to mild irritant potential.
