How To Make All Shampoo ? 

This article will guide you from raw materials, production equipment, packaging machines, etc. into an in-depth understanding of shampoo process.



1. What raw materials are used in the production of shampoo?

The production of shampoo involves the use of several raw materials. These raw materials can vary depending on the specific product being made, but generally include:

Principal surfactants: These provide detergency and foam.

Secondary surfactants: These improve detergency.

Water: This is the main ingredient in shampoo and makes up the majority of the product.

Foam boosters: These help to increase the amount of foam produced by the shampoo.

Thickeners: These help to give the shampoo its texture and viscosity.

Conditioning agents: These help to improve the feel and manageability of hair after washing.

Preservatives: These are added to prevent bacterial growth and extend the shelf life of the product.

Modifiers: These are added to adjust the pH level of the shampoo.

In addition to these raw materials, some shampoos may also contain natural materials such as botanical extracts, natural oils, proteins, and vitamins. These ingredients can impart special qualities to the shampoo and help to sell it. The manufacturing process for shampoo involves compounding, which is the process of mixing all of these raw materials together in specific proportions to create a finished product.


2. A shampoo factory almost install a laboratory room for researching new products

Shampoo laboratory equipment can vary depending on the specific needs of the lab, but some common equipment includes:

Weighing equipment: This includes scales and balances for accurately measuring ingredients.

Containers: This includes beakers, flasks, and other containers for mixing and storing ingredients.

Mixers: This includes various types of mixers, such as high shear mixers and homogenizers, for mixing ingredients together.

Controlling temperature: This includes equipment such as hot plates, water baths, and ovens for controlling the temperature of ingredients during the manufacturing process.

Testing equipment: This includes equipment for testing the quality and safety of cosmetic products, such as pH meters, viscometers, and microbiology testing equipment.

Sterilizers: This is used for sterilizing microbiology laboratory glassware.

Torque meter: This is used for measuring the torque required to turn a spindle or rotor.

Other equipment that may be used in a cosmetic lab includes pH balance machines, thermometers, stainless steel spoons, and lab apparel. The specific equipment needed will depend on factors such as the size of the lab, the type of products being manufactured, and the level of testing required.


3. The most of friend confused how to choose the size of shampoo making machine , below to guide u to think :

Choosing the right size of shampoo making machine depends on several factors, including the batch size, formulation, and production line setup. Here are some tips to help you choose the right size of Shampoo making machine:

Determine your batch size: The size of your shampoo making machine should be based on the size of your batches. If you are producing small batches, a smaller machine may be sufficient, while larger batches will require a larger machine.

Consider your formulation: The viscosity and other properties of your shampoo formulation can also impact the size of the machine you need. Thicker formulations may require a more powerful machine to ensure thorough mixing.

Evaluate your production line setup: The size of your production line and the space available in your facility can also impact the size of the machine you need. Be sure to consider these factors when choosing a machine.

Consult with experts: If you are unsure about what size of shampoo making machine you need, please consult with YALIAN MACHINERY , A one has 30-years experience in this industires.

Overall, choosing the right size of shampoo making machine requires careful consideration of several factors, including batch size, formulation, production line setup, and expert advice.


4. A Shampoo making machine includes : 

RO pure water system → Mixing process system → Filling line machine → Package equipment


RO pure water system introduce:

(RO water treatment +water tank +edi+water pump )

Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to separate water molecules from other substances. Here are some key points about RO pure water systems:

RO systems are used to purify water by removing dissolved solids, contaminants, and other impurities.

The process involves applying pressure to drive water through a semi-permeable membrane, which separates water molecules from other substances.

RO systems typically have multiple stages of filtration, including sediment filters, carbon filters, and the RO membrane itself.

The performance of an RO system can be measured by several parameters, including salt rejection percentage, salt passage percentage, recovery percentage, and concentration factor.

RO systems can be used for a variety of applications, including drinking water systems, high purity water systems, desalination, wastewater treatment, and more.

Commercial RO systems are commonly used in workplaces, schools, hotels, and restaurants to provide high-quality, pure water that is free of sediments, pollutants, and hazardous compounds.

Overall, RO pure water systems are an effective way to purify water for a variety of applications. By removing dissolved solids and other impurities from the water, these systems can provide clean and healthy drinking water or high purity water for industrial processes.


A shampoo mixing tank is a specialized piece of equipment used in the production of liquid detergents such as shampoo, cleanser essence, and shower cream. Here are some features and functions of shampoo mixing tanks:

Stainless steel construction for food-grade applications

Heating, stirring, and vacuuming functions

Material: SS304 and SS316

Power: 0.75kw-75kw

Speed: 0-3000r/min

Assembly equipped with series of paddles types blades, pitched or flat blade of appropriate shape

Vacuum operated models are produced to withstand perfect vacuum during the process for optimum mixing and to eliminate air trap as surfactant has tendency of forming suds

Suitable for 700mm

Capacity: 100L-5000L

Overall, shampoo mixing tanks are designed to mix ingredients thoroughly and efficiently to produce high-quality liquid detergents. They typically have heating, stirring, and vacuuming functions, and are made of stainless steel for food-grade applications. The capacity of these tanks can vary depending on the manufacturer and model.

The mixing tank is an important stage in making shampoo as it is where the ingredients are combined and blended to create the formula. 

The key function of it has mixer , homogenizer , heater and cooler system , vacuum system...( However , Different shampoo production processes require different mixing tank with corresponding functions. )
