Industrial & Agricultural Applications

In industrial and agricultural applications, lecithin serves as a multifunctional, biodegradable additive known for its excellent surfactant, dispersing, and emulsifying properties.

Its natural origin and environmental safety make lecithin especially valuable in formulations requiring performance without compromising sustainability. RED Lecithin is used across technical applications including coatings, leather processing, and agricultural formulations, contributing to both product functionality and environmental responsibility.

Environmental impact of lecithin

Lecithin offers a natural, biodegradable alternative to synthetic surfactants and petroleum-based additives commonly used in coatings, leather processing, and agricultural formulations. By replacing these materials with lecithin, manufacturers and producers can reduce the environmental load of their products, lowering chemical residue, enabling safer biodegradation, and improving overall formulation sustainability.

• Reduces synthetic input

• Improves water system safety

• Supports clean, low-residue formulations

• Biodegradable surfactant
