At IFF, we create innovative solutions that elevate everyday moments in fabric care — from the pleasure of a freshly laundered towel to the satisfaction of a spotless shirt cleaned in energy-saving conditions.

Our Solutions

Whether it’s our high-performing sustainable enzymes for laundry detergents or our scent solutions that deliver long-lasting freshness, malodor control, and sensorial delight, we offer superior solutions for fast-changing lifestyles around the world

Scent for Fabric Care

At IFF, consumers are at the heart of our innovation. As the pioneer in fragrance encapsulation technology for fabric softeners, we merge science with creative artistry, not only to ensure product superiority but also to elevate the consumer experience to new heights. Our master perfumers and best-in-class scent and technical experts collaborate to craft ground-breaking solutions delivering long-lasting fragrance experiences, enhanced freshness, superior malodor control, and notable sustainability benefits.

Enzymes for Laundry

Today’s consumers demand high-performing laundry detergents that are also sustainable. As the first in the industry to engineer enzymes for liquid laundry detergents, we’ve been solving this challenge since the start. We continue to build on this legacy to create enzyme solutions for liquid, powder and unit-dose detergents that tackle even the most difficult stains while providing garment-care benefits and enabling energy-saving cold-water or short-cycle washing.

By 2030, our goal is to offer a catalog made of 100% biodegradable ingredients, enabling our perfumers to create 100% circular formulations.
