How to Choose the Right Detergent Color

What's in your dye selection kit?

Overcome the technical hurdles

There are innumerable types of detergent chemical formulations. With so many varied end-use applications and desired performance characteristics, a wide selection of chemicals must be used to meet all the needs.

  • pH stability
  • Chemical compatibility
  • Solubility compatibility
  • Staining characteristics
  • UV Stability
  • Safety, Health, & Environmental Hurdles (SH&E)

Overcome the economic hurdles

Once it is determined that all physical property requirements are satisfied, the physical form of the colorant, which typically affects the overall cost of the formulation, can be addressed.

Finish Line – Final Colorant Selection to Meet All Requirements

Teaming up with an established and knowledgeable dye supplier that offers a broad selection of quality dyes, is the best first step in colorant selection.
