What we solve
Our solution areas
Silicone-Based Additives
The Siltouch® Series offers advanced silicone solutions for fabric softness, antiwrinkle performance, and post-wash textile finishing. It delivers a smooth hand-feel, durable softness and no yellowing on synthetic fabrics in modern softener formulations.
Siltouch®
Antifoams
The Maxant® Series comprises high-efficiency silicone antifoam solutions engineered for reliable foam control in liquid detergents, powder detergents, and slurry systems. Rapid foam knock-down and long-term foam inhibition across a wide pH range.
Maxant®
Performance Additives
The Surfeco®, Latrosil® and Silicare® series are designed to optimize surface wetting, cleaning efficiency, visual appearance, and functional protection in modern household and surface-care formulations — wetting, stain penetration, rapid drying and water repellency combined.

Our purpose
Better cleaning performance, formulation by formulation
Modern cleaning technologies demand additives that perform at low dosage, stay stable across a wide pH range and remain compatible with clear formulations. We combine silicone chemistry and application know-how to help formulators meet these demands.
01
High performance at low dosage
02
Stability across a wide pH range
03
Compatibility with clear formulations
04
Broad compatibility with surfactant systems
