Please contact HiSiaddi customer service if you require more customized service solutions.
The cooperating client is Swiss Premium Body Care, a brand specializing in organic luxury skincare and salon cosmetics. Its products are distributed in high-end European supermarkets and SPA venues across Switzerland, France, Italy and other regions. All product lines comply with ECOCERT organic certification, IFRA Version 51, EU REACH Regulation and EU Cosmetics Directive. Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAB-35) serves as the core mild surfactant for the brand’s facial cleansers, body washes and premium hair conditioners.
In October 2026, the client commissioned custom CAB-35 exclusively for its new organic sensitive skin care line with a total demand of 150 kg, specifying the following customized requirements: Raw Material Source: Adopt natural coconut oil imported from Southeast Asia as the starting material; recycled materials and industrial scraps are prohibited. Physicochemical Indicators: Active matter content 35.0%±0.2%, free amine <0.3%, sodium chloride content ≤6.0%, no residual solvents detected. Application Performance: Low irritation, dense and delicate foam, no turbidity or flocculation when compounded with plant extracts; no delamination at -8°C and no peculiar odors after long-term storage at room temperature. Additional Requirements: No artificial pigments or artificial fragrances, full batch traceability; exclusive production process with confidential formula; complete set of English compliance documents delivered alongside R&D, trial production and mass production within 40 days.
The client previously contacted multiple domestic manufacturers, yet all failed to meet standards due to insufficient precision of indicators, excessive free amine, tendency to delaminate at low temperatures, and inability to provide raw material traceability. Finally, the client entrusted HiSiaddi to take full charge of this customization project.
1.
Strict Precision Control of Indicators Conventional industrial-grade CAB-35 features wide fluctuations in active matter content, making it difficult to stably maintain the narrow range of 35.0%±0.2%. Excess free amine and salt content increase skin irritation, failing to meet standards for organic sensitive skin care products.

3.
Difficult Raw Material Traceability and Purity Control Food-grade natural coconut oil is required throughout production, which demands locked upstream supply chains to distinguish industrial raw materials from natural oils. Meanwhile, strict control over reaction byproducts is mandatory to avoid impurities that cause odors and formulation incompatibility.

5.
Poor Stability Under Variable Temperatures and Compounding Conditions Storage and transportation temperatures in European winters can drop to -8°C, causing delamination and turbidity in ordinary products. Flocculation and reduced light transmittance often occur when mixed with plant soothing extracts, ruining the premium appearance of high-end products.

7.
Small-Batch Exclusive Production + Technical Confidentiality An order of 150 kg counts as a high-end small-batch order, and regular production lines are reluctant to adjust process parameters separately. Additionally, the client requires strict confidentiality of production processes and raw material ratios, creating risks of technical leakage.

9.
Supporting Complete High-End Compliance Documents A full set of EU-recognized English reports must be provided simultaneously, including organic traceability certificates, toxicology tests, sensitization screening, REACH documents and IFRA statements, forming a complex document system.
10.
HiSiaddi assembled a team of surfactant R&D engineers, formulating application specialists, compliance officers and quality control staff, partnering with cooperative factories equipped with fine synthesis capabilities to complete the entire project in 37 days and deliver the order ahead of schedule.
Source first-grade natural coconut oil from designated suppliers, with origin certificates and quality inspection reports attached to each batch. Recycled grease and industrial raw materials are rejected to reduce impurities and irritation from the source. Build a full-chain batch filing system covering "coconut oil procurement → synthesis reaction → finished product delivery", with one unique code per batch to enable full traceability and satisfy EU organic product traceability audits.
Adjust reaction temperatures and catalytic systems for amidation and quaternization via segmented temperature-controlled reactions to reduce byproduct generation. Adopt multi-stage vacuum deamination technology to stabilize free amine content below 0.22%. Accurately regulate neutralization and salting-out procedures with real-time online testing to maintain active matter within the range of 34.9%~35.1% and sodium chloride below 5.7%, all exceeding the client’s standards. Add precision filtration procedures to completely remove residual solvents and micro-suspended solids, yielding colorless, odorless finished products without artificial additives.
Compounding Tests: Conduct hundreds of compatibility trials with the client’s commonly used plant soothing and moisturizing extracts to confirm transparent, flocculation-free mixed systems with soft dense foam compatible with sensitive skin care formulations. Cold Resistance Tests: Store finished products at a constant temperature of -8°C for 20 days; the system remains uniform without delamination or precipitates. After 3 months of accelerated aging at room temperature, odor, transparency and active matter content show no changes.
Set up an independent customized production line with pre-cleaned and isolated equipment for separate batch production, avoiding cross-contamination from mixing with ordinary daily chemical raw materials. Sign non-disclosure agreements with factories; encrypt and archive reaction parameters and raw material ratios, promising not to supply third parties with products using identical processes for 5 years to safeguard the client’s exclusive rights. Conduct sampling inspections every 2 hours throughout production; deliver finished products to CNAS-accredited laboratories for full indicator verification before warehousing upon passing inspection.
Expedite compilation of a full set of English compliance materials: ECOCERT organic raw material supporting documents, REACH-SVHC screening reports, IFRA Version 51 statements, toxicology & irritation test reports, heavy metal and microbial test reports, all verifiable on official EU platforms. Package in food-grade light-proof plastic drums printed with bilingual English-German labels marked with traceability codes, batch numbers, indicators and compliance logos. Outer packaging uses EU eco-friendly materials compliant with cross-border sea transportation requirements.
· All indicators meet standards: Re-inspection by the client confirms full compliance with customized requirements for active matter, free amine, salt content and other core indicators with minimal batch deviation.
· Excellent application performance: When incorporated into facial cleanser and body wash formulations, foam texture, skin feel and transparency all meet design standards; no abnormalities occur during low-temperature storage and long-distance transportation.
· Smooth customs clearance via compliance documents: The complete document package passes reviews by European customs and the brand’s compliance department in one go.
· Positive end-consumer reputation: The organic sensitive skin care line formulated with this customized raw material has gained recognition among high-end consumers for its gentle texture and stable quality post-launch.
The two parties signed an annual customized framework agreement with annual procurement volume increased to 450 kg, locking in exclusive production processes and capacity. The client designated HiSiaddi as its core customized supplier for surfactants and continues to collaborate on customization of multiple subsequent high-end skincare raw materials. Client Comment: HiSiaddi accurately grasps the indicator, safety and compliance requirements of European organic skincare, with highly implementable customized solutions, making it a reliable long-term partner.
