FORMULATION PERFORMANCE ARCHITECT — HOME & CLEANING CARE SYSTEMS
Designing
High-Performance
Cleaning and Surfactant Systems
I help cleaning-product manufacturers diagnose formulation failures, improve rheology and stability, optimise cost and performance, and develop scalable liquid cleaning systems.
Specialised support for liquid detergents, dishwash products, floor and toilet cleaners, degreasers, disinfectant systems and selected personal-care cleansers.

When the Formula Looks Correct but the Product Still Fails
A formulation can contain the expected ingredients and still produce inconsistent viscosity, poor flow, separation, clarity loss, perfume instability, weak cleaning or excessive cost. These failures are often caused by interactions among raw-material grade, active matter, surfactant balance, pH, electrolyte response, mixing sequence and process conditions.
Banu Formulations approaches these problems as formulation-system problems—not as isolated ingredient problems.

Choose the Right Level of Support
Custom Product Development
A structured development engagement for a new product, benchmark-led target or defined commercial requirement—from technical brief and laboratory trials to SOP, QC criteria and scale-up guidance, according to the agreed scope.
Request a Development Proposal
Troubleshooting & Optimisation
Technical investigation of an existing formula or process where rheology, stability, cleaning, foam, clarity, cost or batch consistency is not meeting the required target.
Discuss a Formulation Problem
Diagnostic Consultation
A focused 30-minute technical consultation to identify likely causes, clarify priorities and define the next technical direction. This is diagnosis and direction, not complete formulation delivery.

How the Work Progresses
1. Define the product, problem, commercial target and constraints.
2. Review formulation, material grades, active matter, process and available observations.
3. Design controlled trials or a correction pathway appropriate to the scope.
4. Evaluate rheology, pH, clarity, foam, cleaning behaviour and stability indicators as applicable.
5. Document the agreed formula, process, QC controls and scale-up direction.

Deliverables depend on the approved project scope.
Technical Work with Commercial Relevance
The objective is not to make a laboratory sample look thick for one day. The objective is to build a formulation system that can be manufactured consistently, evaluated against measurable targets and improved through documented evidence.
