Sodium Tallowate

Other names: sodium tallow

Harm score: 2 (Derivatives of natural substances)


Sodium Tallowate, also known as sodium tallow, is a saponified product created by reacting animal fat, specifically beef tallow, and sodium hydroxide (also known as lye). This mixture can then be processed to a solid grade. In industry, sodium tallow is most commonly used for its cleansing and moisturizing properties, making it widely used in the cosmetics industry, but also in other fields.

Sodium Tallowate is most commonly used in the manufacture of soaps because of its ability to remove dirt and grease from skin and hair. Its mild foaming properties make it suitable for more sensitive skin. In addition to soaps, sodium tallowate is also used in shampoos, conditioners, bath foams and cleansers. Sodium tallow is also used in industry for the production of bulk soaps, washing pastes and cleaning agents for textiles and various surfaces. As it is a product derived from animal fats, its use is controversial, especially among consumers who prefer vegan or cruelty-free products. As part of the sustainability and environmental friendliness of the cosmetics industry, there has been a trend in recent years to replace Sodium Tallowate with other, plant-based alternatives.
