Soap and cleaning compound manufacturers produce a variety of materials, such as household soaps, commercial detergents, polishes and surface-active agents. Many of their products (e.g. household soaps and detergents) are staples in US households, so spending on these items don't fluctuate significantly based on macroeconomic conditions. Other materials, like commercial detergents, tend to shift based on business demand, creating more volatility for the industry.
The Soap and Cleaning Compound Manufacturing industry produces substances that loosen and remove soil from a surface for personal hygiene, sanitization or cleaning clothes, linens and furnishings. The industry does not include manufacturers of synthetic glycerin, industrial bleaches or shampoos.
