Product description

Gluadin Kera-P LM is a "vegan keratin" - in practice, it is a hydrolysed vegetable protein. It is produced by enzymatic or acid hydrolysis of plant proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids, making it more usable in cosmetics: reducing the "heaviness" of the protein, improving compatibility with aqueous systems and making it easier to incorporate into hair and skin formulations.
In products, it functions mainly as a film-forming and conditioning ingredient - helping both hair and skin to form a soft protective film that improves the feel and promotes a conditioned appearance.

Key benefits

Conditioning effect - improves slip, softness and manageability of the hair.
Film-forming action - helps reduce the feeling of roughness and promotes a smoother surface of the hair fibre.
Shine support - when dosed correctly, can enhance the optical shine of the hair.
Moisturizing benefit - protein peptides and amino acids promote water binding in the surface layers.
Vegan alternative to classic animal keratins in hair cosmetics.

Suitable for products such as

Shampoos and gentle hair wash gels.
Conditioners, masks and hair balms.
Leave-in sprays, creams and serum to lengths.
Styling products (creams, gels) - for film support and smoothing.
Skin and body products (creams, lotions) - as a conditioning support ingredient.

Use in formulation

Soluble in: water and aqueous phases; suitable for aqueous and emulsion systems.
Compatible with: common tensides and conditioning ingredients; works best in products with adequate viscosity.
Recommended dosage: typically 0.5-5% depending on product type (lower dosages for shampoos, higher dosages for masks and leave-ins).
Technology tip: higher doses may increase film "strength" and be more difficult on fine hair - fine-tune dosage according to hair type and the rest of the formula.

Safety and storage

Avoid contact with eyes; flush with water if touched.
For sensitive skin, we recommend testing the finished product on a small area first.
Store in a tightly closed container, out of direct sunlight and heat sources.
Work hygienically and minimize contamination when dispensing into formulations.

FAQ

Is "vegan keratin" really keratin?

It is not animal keratin. It is a hydrolyzed plant protein that mimics the conditioning and film-forming effect of keratin ingredients in hair cosmetics.

Can it be combined with cationic conditioning agents (e.g. quaternary ammonium compounds)?

Yes, in practice it is often combined with conditioning systems. A simple stability and sensory test (appearance, precipitation, viscosity) at the final pH is recommended.

For which hair types is it more suitable - fine or coarse?

It is suitable for all types, but fine hair usually needs a lower dosage. Higher dosages can make the film feel heavier, so it's a good idea to adjust the percentages according to the product's target.

Will the protein affect the lather of the shampoo?

At normal doses the effect tends to be small, but higher percentages can subtly alter the feel of the lather. Fine-tuning the tenside system or adding foam-enhancing ingredients can help.

Can it also be used in solid hair cosmetics?

Yes, it can also be incorporated into solid shampoos or solid conditioners if the formulation contains a phase into which it can be dispersed evenly (or added in the correct process step).
