Laundry detergent sheets

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) is the preferred binder for this application, due to its excellent water solubility, high binding power and good compatibility with a wide range of detergents. Further PVOH is inherently biodegradable in water and provides mechanical strength to detergent sheets while still retaining a soft touch. Our broad portfolio of KURARAY POVAL™ grades allows to achieve the ideal balance between fast solubility, low residue, high binding power and good mechanical strength. Moreover, our global production network provides local supply of PVOH, thus supporting our customers in meeting their sustainability claims.
