Topic: Essential ingredients for next generation ADW

Automated dishwashing (ADW) is a widely applied cleaning application. New developments in this area are driven by consumers, formulators and raw material suppliers as well as equipment providers. These developments need to account for a range of requirements from low cost-in-use and targeted performance to improved sustainability and long-term stability.

An ADW formulation will include a set of basic ingredients to drive the main cleaning performance such as chelating agents, builders and surfactants. Often, it will also contain an enzyme cocktail and/or a bleaching system for improved cleaning.

Nouryon has several technologies and the application knowledge to address the major challenges in next generation ADW: surfactants and chelating agents to take care of the more obstinate soils, synthetic and hybrid polymers for improved secondary cleaning (filming and spotting).

We believe in providing our customers with the most sustainable solutions available so that they meet their sustainability needs without performance compromise. This presentation highlights various differentiating technologies available from Nouryon today, focusing on how sustainability and performance together can provide customer value in ADW.
