Properties

Our eco lipase on biodegradable cellulose powder provides a highly effective and environmentally responsible solution for grease and fat removal across a wide range of cleaning applications. The enzyme specifically targets and hydrolyses fats, oils, and lipid-based soils, breaking them down into smaller, water-soluble components that can be easily rinsed away.

This targeted enzymatic action significantly improves the removal of greasy residues in both industrial and household formulations, while reducing the need for harsh surfactants and chemicals. Lipase is particularly valuable in laundry detergents, dishwashing products, kitchen cleaners, and industrial degreasers, where it enhances performance at lower temperatures, supports energy savings, and enables the development of more sustainable, eco-friendly formulations.

The biodegradable cellulose powder carrier ensures excellent enzyme stability, controlled release, and low dust formation. Its stable powder format provides long shelf life and consistent enzymatic activity, making it a reliable and safe choice for professional cleaning operations as well as consumer cleaning products.

The enzyme is derived from a genetically modified strain of Aspergillus spp. The activity is expressed in Kilo Lipase Units (KLU), and contains no significant side-activities.
