Industrial and heavy duty cleaning and degreasing systems must remove tough soils such as grease, oil, and biomass under demanding conditions. Locus’ Amphi® biosurfactants improve penetration, surface wetting, and soil removal to deliver more effective industrial cleaning performance with greater consistency across applications.

The Challenge

Why heavy-duty cleaning systems break down

Heavy-duty cleaning performance often breaks down when soils resist penetration or redeposit on surfaces. Conventional surfactants struggle to fully wet and lift complex soils, leaving behind residue, increasing chemical demand, and reducing overall cleaning efficiency.

Performance cleaning, built for real-world formulations

Amphi® biosurfactants improve cleaning by enhancing wetting, penetration, and soil removal across complex surfaces. They perform across alkaline, acidic, and hard water systems, helping formulators increase performance without increasing formulation complexity.

Grease removal

Improves wetting and surface penetration for more effective grease removal in heavy-duty and industrial cleaning systems

System compatibility

Works across alkaline, acidic, and hard water formulations, including process and maintenance fluids

Formulation efficiency

Enhances cleaning performance while reducing total surfactant load in formulations

Biobased reformulation

Enables transition from petrochemical systems to high-performance biosurfactant-based formulations

Biosurfactants deliver real cleaning gains

  • Improved wetting and penetration across tough soils
  • Enhanced grease cutting and soil removal
  • Greater consistency across variable water conditions
  • Lower chemical load with improved performance
  • Supports reformulation and regulatory transitions
