Meet the BioLoop Family—Lankem’s innovative range of bio-based surfactants derived from soybean, sunflower, and rapeseed oils. With over 98% renewable carbon content, BioLoop surfactants deliver excellent detergency, wetting, foaming control, mildness, and formulation flexibility without compromising performance. Discover how this sustainable technology is helping formulators reduce reliance on fossil-based ingredients across industrial, consumer, coatings, and personal care

Discover the SOUNDS FOOD project, where ultrasonic cleaning technology and Lankem's BioLoop bio-based surfactants are helping reduce water, energy and chemical use in food and beverage cleaning applications.

Following a laboratory study by Lankem into the performance of bio-based dispersants in aqueous dispersions of titanium dioxide pigment, two products were shown to give excellent performance in comparison to a conventional sodium polyacrylate dispersant.

BioLoop SUN56-PG can single-handedly stabilize rich emulsions without the need for traditional waxes. It simplifies the ingredient list, reduces formulation complexity, and aligns with eco-conscious product development. Whether you're a formulator seeking cleaner labels or a brand innovating in sustainable skincare, this approach offers a compelling path forward.

This study demonstrates that Bioloop 56L-PG is a standout surfactant for micellar water, offering: - Superior cleansing with minimal residue - Low-foaming for optimal leave-on application - Stable and mild, suitable for sensitive skin

When compared to the standard sulphosuccinate (Lanwet JH1), Lansperse SUN10 showed comparable wetting properties but with the added benefit of very low foam generation. Additionally, the favourable labelling of Lansperse SUN10 makes it a compelling choice for use as a substrate wetter in a wide range of coating applications.

Lansperse BIO868 performs very well as a bio-based dispersant for Pigment Violet 23 in water-based systems. It consistently produced low-viscosity millbases, remained stable during storage, and achieved strong colour development with fewer milling passes than the market standard.

This work has highlighted that the biobased range of products are suitable as dispersing agents for Pigment Red 101 red iron oxides.
