Methyl Ester Sulphonates (or MES) is an anionic surfactant, which is the active cleaning ingredient in laundry detergents.

It’s primary use is as a substitute to the current surfactant workhorse, Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate, in detergent formulas. It is made from renewable natural resources, which gives it excellent bio-degradability; improved calcium hardness tolerance during the washing process, and superior detergency.

Available in dry free-flowing powder, flakes and paste.  The powder grade enables direct addition to detergent formulas in the post-addition step in the manufacturing process.
