Shampoo, Conditioner & Shower Gel Manufacturing

Shower gel (also shower cream or body wash) is a specialized liquid product used for cleaning the body during showers. Shower gels are known to consist of the same basic ingredients as soap - water, betaines, and sodium laureth sulfate, or SLS. Shampoos are cleaning formulations made up primarily of chemicals called surfactants that have the ability to surround oily materials on surfaces which allows them to be rinsed away by water. Most shampoo brands also have an extra body product, volumizing or moisturizing or conditioning products, specifically addressing smoothing or shine.

Market Size of Shampoo, Conditioners, Shower Gels

The global bath and shower products market is projected to grow from $48.83 billion in 2023 to $70.88 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.47%

Ingredients used in Shampoo, Conditioner, Shower Gel Manufacturing

Surfactants:
Create lather and cleanse both the hair and body effectively. Common surfactants used in shampoos and shower gels include sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), or milder alternatives like cocamidopropyl betaine.
Conditioning Agents:
Provide nourishment and hydration to the hair, as well as keep the skin soft and smooth. Ingredients like panthenol, glycerin, or various oils might be included for this purpose.
Fragrances:
Give the product a pleasant scent for both hair and body.
Preservatives:
Extend the shelf life and prevent the growth of harmful microorganisms in the product.
Emulsifiers:
Keep the water and oil ingredients in the shower gel mixed together.
Other Additives:
Depending on the specific formulation, the product might contain additional ingredients such as botanical extracts, vitamins, or specific additives catering to particular hair or skin needs.

High Shear & High Viscosity Mixing Technology
for Shampoo & Shower Gel Manufacturing

High-shear mixers or high-shear homogenizers are used to produce standard mixtures of ingredients that do not naturally mix. This industrial machinery disperses, or transports, one phase or ingredient (liquid, solid, gas) into a main continuous phase (liquid), with which it would normally be immiscible. A rotor, together with a stationary component known as a stator, or an array of rotors and stators, is used in a mixing tank containing the solution to be mixed, and in a pipe through which the solution passes, to create shear. A high-shear homogenizer mixer is used to create emulsions, suspensions, lyosols (gas dispersed in liquid), and granular products. It is used in the food, pharmaceutical, adhesives, chemical, cosmetic, and plastics industries for emulsification, homogenization, particle size reduction, and dispersion.

Key design factors in the high shear mixers include the diameter of the rotor and its rotational speed, the distance between the rotor and the stator.

Our Batch Mixers and Liquid Powder Mixers are recommended for manufacturing of shampoo and shower gels, accommodating the following process:

Water is often heated to aid dilution/hydration of other ingredients.
Surfactant, and other additives, particularly those which affect viscosity, are added.
Conditioners and other ingredients are added.
pH is adjusted to the required level.
Other viscosity modifiers, color, fragrance are added into the mix.
