Overview

About SLS & SLES Surfactants in UAE

Sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) and sodium laureth sulphate (SLES) are anionic surfactants supplied as a high-active solid (SLS needles or powder) and as a liquid (SLES). They are used for their detergency, foaming and emulsifying properties across cleaning products, cosmetics and personal-care formulations, and textile processing.

Zentish Exim supplies SLS and SLES sourced from qualified Indian producers, with certificates of analysis and safety data sheets. Active content and grade are reported per batch on request. Both are classified as skin and eye irritants in concentrated form, and handling notes accompany every consignment.

The UAE is a re-export hub for the Middle East and Africa; imports are overseen by ESMA/GSO with a 5% GCC external tariff (0% inside free zones). Jebel Ali and Khalifa Port are the gateways; air freight runs 3-5 days and ocean 8-15 days from Indian west-coast ports.
