FORMULATION COST ANALYSIS
Business challenges in your industry
A performance-driven detergent market and fiercely fluctuating raw material prices make it imperative to optimize your
detergents to achieve cost- and performance-effective formulations. Cost analysis of formulations is important to
understand so that you can stabilize or reduce your formulation optimally.
Novozymes’ solution
Novozymes offers a formulation optimization service that analyzes the cost structure of your detergent formulations. Our
cost calculator tool gives you a good estimate of the cost/benefit of formulation changes. It includes cost calculation, cost
simulation, raw material prices, LCA parameters etc. Direct consequences of varying the (re) formulation can also be
observed and simulated as a function of enzyme types and amounts.
Cost analysis covers the overall formulation structure and gives optimal proposals to stabilize or reduce costs while
considering the balance between cost and performance.
Based on Novozymes’ many years of experience using enzymes in the detergent industry and our position as industry
leader, you can be assured of getting valuable analysis of the cost structure of your formulations.
