How to Use AccessMILD SCGL-30S in Your Formulations

Understanding AccessMILD SCGL-30S

AccessMILD SCGL-30S is a mild, amino acid–based anionic surfactant designed for sulfate-free cleansing systems. It is based on Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, a surfactant derived from coconut fatty acids and glutamic acid. Known for its skin-friendly profile, it provides rich, creamy foam with low irritation, making it ideal for daily-use and sensitive-skin formulas.
