Shampoo is an essential cleaning product in our daily life, helping us keep our hair clean and healthy. However, have you ever wondered how these shampoos are transformed from raw materials into the bottle of fragrant liquid in our hands? Today, we will take a deep look at the production process of shampoo and learn in detail about every link from formula design to finished product delivery.

1. Formula design: a combination of science and art
The production of shampoo begins with the design of the formula. The formulation requires chemists and formulators to combine the wisdom of science and art. They will choose the appropriate ingredients according to different hair types and consumer needs. The main ingredients include:

Detergents: such as sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or sodium lauryl sulfate (SLES), which are effective detergents that can clean oil and dirt from the hair and scalp.

Humectants: such as glycerin and propylene glycol, which help retain moisture in the hair and prevent dryness.

Thickeners: such as hydroxyethyl cellulose and polyvinyl alcohol, which can make shampoo have a suitable viscosity for easy use.
Hair care ingredients: such as proteins, vitamins and plant extracts, which can enhance the health and shine of hair.
Fragrances and pigments: add pleasant fragrance and attractive appearance to shampoo.
2. Raw material procurement: the first step to ensure quality
Once the formula is determined, the factory begins to purchase raw materials. All raw materials must meet strict quality standards to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the final product. These raw materials are usually purchased through a global supply chain and undergo comprehensive quality testing upon arrival at the factory to ensure their purity and safety.

3. Ingredient mixing: precise proportions and advanced equipment
In the production workshop, various raw materials are added to the mixing tank in sequence according to the proportion of the formula. The mixing tank is equipped with a powerful agitator to ensure that all raw materials can be evenly mixed. During this process, the temperature and stirring speed are strictly controlled to ensure the quality of the shampoo. Advanced automation equipment can accurately control the amount of each raw material added and the mixing time to ensure the consistency of each batch of shampoo.

4. Heating and cooling: improving product stability
The mixed shampoo is heated to a certain temperature to ensure that all ingredients are fully integrated. The heating process can help dissolve difficult-to-dissolve ingredients and kill possible microorganisms. After heating, the shampoo is slowly cooled to room temperature. The cooling process is also strictly monitored to prevent the separation or precipitation of ingredients, thereby improving the stability and effectiveness of the shampoo.

5. Filtration and degassing: ensuring product purity
The cooled shampoo needs to be filtered and degassed. Filtration can remove tiny impurities that may be generated during the mixing process to ensure the purity and transparency of the shampoo. Degassing can remove bubbles in the shampoo to prevent unsightly bubbles or swelling of the product after packaging.

6. Filling and packaging: efficient automated process
After the above steps, the shampoo is basically completed. The next step is to fill the shampoo into a variety of bottles. Here, the automatic linear eight-wheel high-speed capping machine from CX PACKING MACHINE plays an important role. This efficient capping machine can complete the capping work of a large number of bottles in a short time, ensuring that each bottle of shampoo can be quickly and safely sealed. In addition, the automated filling equipment can accurately control the filling amount of each bottle of shampoo to prevent spillage and waste.

Afterwards, the filled shampoo bottles are conveyed to the labeling machine for labeling. The labels usually contain important information such as product name, ingredient list, usage, shelf life, etc. The packaged shampoo bottles are packed into cartons for further distribution and sales.

7. Quality inspection and delivery: strict quality control
Before delivery, each batch of shampoo needs to undergo strict quality inspection. Inspection items include appearance, odor, pH value, viscosity, stability and microbial content. Quality inspection ensures that each bottle of shampoo meets the company's and the country's quality standards and ensures consumer safety.

Summary
From formula design to finished product delivery, the production process of shampoo needs to go through multiple links, and each link is crucial. CX PACKING MACHINE's automation equipment plays an important role in this process and provides strong support for the efficient production of shampoo. Through precise formula design, strict quality control and advanced production equipment, we are able to enjoy high-quality shampoo products. I hope that through this article, you can have a deeper understanding of the production of shampoo, and cherish this hard-earned daily necessity in your hand more.
