What is
SurfMellow™？Origin
SurfMellow™ is a yeast-produced biosurfactant.
Mannosylerythritol Lipid(MEL), the main component of SurfMellow™ enhances to lower the surface tension on the leaves and improve wettability, spreadability and adhesion.

agrochemicals and
lower soil contamination
-
1
Effective wettability, adhesion and spreading at lower concentrations
-
2
High compatibility
with microbial biocontrols -
3
Less usage of agrochemicals helps to lower environmental burden

By replacing synthetic surfactants with biosurfactants, it is possible to reduce the use of synthetic surfactants.
This contributes to the efficient use of resources and the reduction of environmental impact caused by synthetic surfactant.
- Conventional synthetic
surfactants
derived from petroleum - Traditional synthetic surfactants are
petroleum-based
and rely on limited resources.
They have low biodegradability
and a significant environmental impact.
- Sustainable biosurfactant
SurfMellow™ - SurfMellow™ is manufactured in a single
step through
fermentation from plant oils and has a lower environmental
impact
compared to chemical
synthesis products.
It is expected to have positive effects
on resource conservation
and
environmental preservation.
TOYOBO Group's Sustainability

made possible By Toyobo.Particularly
Commitment to Research and Development
SurfMellow™ was developed over a period of more than 10 years in collaboration with the National Institute of Advanced
Industrial Science and Technology(AIST).
AIST : One of the largest public research institutes in Japan.
Manufactured in Japan
Toyobo's fermentation technology has been developed over approximately 70 years.
SurfMellow™ is produced through the fermentation process over 2 weeks with fine-tuning manufacturing of conditions
like temperature, pH, and stirring speed.
We also utilize refining methods to ensure the production of high-purity SurfMellow™.
