A new revolution in bead manufacturing: efficient, stable and environmentally friendly liquid semi-finished product solutions

——Breaking through traditional pain points and opening a new era of laundry beads production

 

As the laundry detergent beads market grows rapidly, consumers are increasingly demanding on product functionality, environmental friendliness, and user experience, while the production side faces pain points such as poor formula stability, complex processes, and high costs. In response to this industry dilemma, we launched the innovative laundry detergent beads liquid semi-finished product - LCM series , which can be directly encapsulated by simply adding flavors and pigments, greatly simplifying the production process while overcoming multiple technical difficulties. The following analyzes the core competitiveness of this product from three aspects: technological breakthroughs, production advantages, and market fit.

Technological breakthrough: solving the five core pain points of the industry

 

1. High water content and PVA film compatibility problem

Traditional laundry beads have low water content (<10%) and need to rely on a high proportion of organic solvents (more than 25%) to maintain stability, resulting in high costs , waste of ingredients and heavy environmental burden. Our semi-finished products achieve a water content of less than 18 % through the synergy of reasonable formulas , while ensuring the stability of the water-soluble film (PVA) in dry and humid environments , avoiding problems such as collapse or leakage.

 

2. Formula gel and stratification issues

Concentrated laundry detergents are prone to gelling or precipitation due to improper surfactant compounding or insufficient solvents. Our formula uses a scientific ratio of anionic/nonionic surfactants and combines organic solvent optimization to reduce costs and improve system uniformity, eliminating the risk of gelling during production.

 

3. Color stability and yellowing inhibition

Traditional systems use organic base neutralizers (such as monoethanolamine), which can easily lead to yellowing during storage. This product uses an ultra-stable system, which significantly reduces the risk of yellowing and extends the shelf life.

 

4. Multifunctional ingredient compatibility

Supports the addition of functional ingredients such as enzyme preparations, flavors, and microcapsules. For example, you can add your own flavors to achieve long-lasting fragrance, and the enzyme preparations can remain active even at high water content, thus meeting the differentiated needs of multi-cavity beads.

 

5. Improved environmental protection and safety

Reducing the use of organic solvents and adding plant-based surfactants are in line with the global low-carbon trend; a variety of formulas are available to meet the performance and formula requirements of different regions. The formula uses safe solvents to reduce the hazards of long-term contact or accidental ingestion by children.

Production advantages: plug and play, cost reduction and efficiency improvement

 

1. Simplify the process and quickly put it into production

Traditional production requires multiple steps such as raw material mixing, homogenization, solubilization, stability testing, etc., while our semi-finished products only require two steps: "adding flavors/pigments filling and packaging". They can be directly connected to existing gel bead packaging machines, saving more than 50% of working hours.

 

2. Strong compatibility and support for multi-scenario development

Single-chamber/multi-chamber flexible design: The viscosity of the liquid semi-finished product is stable, suitable for single-chamber basic products or three-chamber (clean + soften + fragrance) high-end products. Different functional ingredients can be added to achieve differentiated ingredients of multi-cavity gel beads simply and quickly. 

Perfect combination of color and fragrance : supports the addition of water-soluble pigments and microcapsule flavors to meet personalized market needs (such as children's favorite jelly colors and high-end natural plant fragrances).

 

3. Cost optimization and profit margin improvement

Junxin has a strong supply chain of detergent raw materials , market control, centralized procurement, and low raw material costs;

No need for complex formula debugging, reducing R&D investment;

Reduce defective rate through high stability and reduce overall cost ;

The process flow is reduced and production efficiency is effectively improved

No need for multiple purchases, transportation and warehousing, saving procurement process and reducing transportation and warehousing costs.

Market fit: Accurately matching consumption and industry trends

 

1. Driven by environmental protection needs

The global daily chemical industry is accelerating its transition to carbon neutrality, and leading companies such as Liby have seized the market through green formulas and reduced plastic packaging. The high naturalness and low solvent characteristics of this product help brands quickly respond to ESG goals and obtain carbon footprint certification.

 

2. Lazy Economyand Functional Integration

The annual growth rate of multi-effect gel beads (cleaning + antibacterial + color protection) exceeds 30%. Our semi-finished products support modular addition of functions, such as:

Functional enzyme module: cellulase , etc.

Fragrance module:  if you need to add capsule fragrance ;

Softening module: cationic antistatic agent.

Sterilization and deodorization module: add sterilization and antibacterial agents, deodorizers, etc.  

 

3. Standardization and security upgrades

Comply with the "Laundry Detergent Beads" industry standard revised in 2024, reduce risks and enhance brand trust through child-safe packaging design (such as anti-ingestion labels and double-layer film packaging).

 

Successful Cases and Future Prospects

 

Youkai Technology: Through the transformation from three-chamber gel beads OEM to its own brand, annual sales increased by 230%, proving the feasibility of rapid production of semi-finished products.

Libai Huazhi Era: Sets an industry benchmark with its 7-in-1 gel beads, achieves 10 times concentration with a highly stable formula, and leads in market share.

 

In the future, we will continue to optimize formula compatibility, develop instant systems that are suitable for quick-wash modes, and explore fully biodegradable water-soluble film technology to lead the industry towards a more efficient and environmentally friendly direction.
