Personal Care Product Line
Shell Chemicals offers a portfolio of personal care solutions produced at a global scale, providing consistency, reliability, and the trusted performance required for personal care applications.
Trusted Performance
Shell NEODOL® and Shell NEODENE® deliver the properties that can meet formulators’ versatile needs. Shell NEODOL alcohols are palm-free, providing a
comparable alternative to commonly used oleo alcohols, ideal for manufacturers.
- Shell NEODOL alcohols: Lightly branched structure provides foaming power, formulation ease, stability, and emollient benefits, ideal for shampoos, body washes, and other personal care products.
- Shell NEODENE alpha olefins: Highly linear structure, suited for intermediates for cleansing agents and solubilisers.
High-Purity Emollients
Shell NEODOL alcohols are colourless, non-irritating, and non-sticky, leaving skin soft and smooth. Their high purity helps maintain product colour and stability, while also supporting viscosity control in creams, lotions, sunscreens, and hair care.
Certified and Compliant
Several Shell NEODOL products qualify under the U.S. EPA’s Safer Choice program. Additionally, Shell NEODOL and Shell NEODENE grades are Kosher certified.
