● Summary
High-foam detergents provide strong visual cleaning feedback and enhanced lubrication, making them ideal for manual car washing and detailing. Low-foam detergents focus on cleaning efficiency, fast rinsing, and machine compatibility, making them suitable for automatic car washes and industrial systems. Brilliachem, an SGS, ISO, and BSCI certified car care chemical manufacturer, formulates both high-foam and low-foam detergents to meet professional car wash and OEM requirements worldwide.
In car wash chemistry, foam level is not a marketing gimmick — it is a functional formulation choice.
High-foam detergents generate thick, stable foam using advanced surfactant systems.
Low-foam detergents minimize foam to improve rinsing speed and system efficiency.
At Brilliachem, foam behavior is engineered based on usage environment, equipment type, and cleaning target, not visual preference alone.

No. Foam improves lubrication and visual effect, but cleaning power depends on surfactant chemistry, not foam volume alone.
Generally no. Excess foam can disrupt sensors, pumps, and recycling systems.
Not at all. Low-foam detergents often clean more efficiently in mechanical systems.
Yes. We customize foam height, stability, and collapse speed based on client needs.
Yes. All formulations comply with international standards and are tested under SGS protocols.
