INDUSTRY PROFILE
INTRODUCTION:
Soap is the traditional washing compound made from oil fats and caustic alkali. One can say a
detergent is the one that cleans any surface. Synthetic detergent is quite different from other
kinds of detergent. More foam is produced with such kind of detergents, moreover, there is less
tension created on the dirty surface yet emulsification takes places and the detergent niters the
surface much faster. This is the reason why the cleaning process is fast. Soap is surfactant used
in conjunction with water for washing and cleaning that historically comes in solid bars but also
in the form of a thick liquid, especially from soap dispensers in public washrooms. Soap are
useful for cleaning because soap molecules Handmade soap differs from industrial soap in that,
usually, an excess of fat is used to consume the alkali (super fatting), and in that the glycerin is
not removed. Soap is an item of daily necessity as cleaning agent. It is mass consumer item in
both rural and urban areas. Soap may be divided into toilet soap and washing soap. In the toilet
soap market. New product innovations such as liquid soap, soap free synthetic detergents and no-
wash soap have taken an increasing share of the market from traditional soap bars. While there
are large companies manufacturing soap including toilet and washing soap, it is an ideal product
to manufacture in SSI sector.
Market potential
The soap market is divided into true soap and non-soapy detergent. The for soap product
largely mature in developed markets and display stagnant growth potential in developing
countries is huge. The demand for laundry washing in north-eastern region is estimated at 6825
tons per year.

Definition of Detergents:
Detergent: Product the formulation of which is specially devised to promote the development of
detergent. A detergent is a formulation comprising essential constituents (surface active agents)
and Subsidiary constituents (builders, boosters, fillers and auxiliaries)
Surface active agents: Chemical compound which, when dissolved or dispersed in a liquid is
preferentially absorbed at an interface, giving rise to a number of physic chemical or chemical
properties of practical interest. The molecule of the compound includes at least one group with
an affievityfor marked by polar surfaces, ensuring in most cases solubilization in water & a
group which has little affinity for water.
Note; composition in general are usually mixture of such compound.

Amphiphilic product: Product compromising in its molecule, at the same time one or more
hydrophilic groups & one or more hydrophobic groups.
Note; surface active agents are amphiphilic products.
History of the Detergents Industry:

Although start of the synthetic detergent industry is not shrouded in the veils of history as were
the beginning of the soap industry, it is nevertheless not easy to pinpoint not easy to pinpoint
exactly when the detergent industry, as such, came into being. The primary problem is to decide
exactly what is being referred to as a synthetic detergent. The term itself leads to confusion. In
the USA the words
Surfactant or syndicate are being used, whilst in Europe the term ‘tenside’ (for tension- material)
is coming into fashion.

Synthetic Detergents:
If can refer to the active ingredient or the solid, liquid, paste or powder compound from this
active matter. However, this should not lead to confusion, as the industry itself as yet make no
distinction in terminology between the basic material and the ready-for- use product.
The first synthetic detergent seems to have been developed by the germans in the First World
War period to allow fats to be utilized for other purpose. These detergents were of the short-
chain naphthalene subsequent sulphonation, and appeared under the general name of nekal.
These products proved to be only fair to moderately good detergents, but good wetting agents
&stice being produced in large quantities for use as textile auxiliaries.
In the late 1920s & early 1930s long chain alwhols were surphonated& sold as the neutralized
sodium salts with out any further addition expect for sodium sulphate as an extender.
In the early 1930s long-chain alkyl sulphonates with benzene as the aromatic nucleus, and the
alkyl portion made from a kerosene fraction, appeared on the market in the USA. Again, these
were available as the sodium salts extended with sodium sulphate. Both the alcohol sulphates
and the alkyl aryl sulphonates were sold as such as clearing materials, but did not make any
appreciable impression on the total market. At the end of second war alkyl aryl sulphonates had
almost completely swamped the sales of alcohol sulphates were making big inroads into the
shampoo field. An exception was teepol, a secondary alcohol sulphate which remained popular
for some years.
In common, however, with other chemical developments during this century, progress was not in
one direction only. The limiting factor is always the availability of raw materials in a particular
country. Con-currently with the above developments, there were developed, both in Germany
and USA, the Igepon type of compounds of which Igepon-T, the sodium salt of oleyltauride is an
example, and in Germany the Mersolates, which are alkene sulphates. In UK, Teepol, a
secondary olefin sulphates from petrochemical sources, was manufactured in large quantities and
is still being produced in England and Western Europe to this day.

Each of this basic material has its advantages and disadvantage, but in considering the feasibility
of production the following factor must be taken into account.
 Availability of raw materials

 Ease of manufacture
 Cost of raw material
 Cost of manufacture
 Suitability of finished product
As a result of its ease of manufacture and versatility, the alkyl benzene sulphonate very quickly
gained a foothold in the market, and after the last war the existing keryl benzene was very
quickly replaced by alkyl benzene made from propylene tetramer coupled to benzene(PT
benzene).
This PT benzene very quickly displaced all other basic detergents and for the period 1950-65
considerably more than half the detergents used throughout the world were based on this.
Kinds of Detergents
A) House Holds Laundry Detergents And Stain Removers:
Modern’s household laundry detergents must effectively clean and remove the most difficult
stains at low washing temperature and short wash times. Addition of detergents enzymes
manufactured by specially Enzymes designed, to laundry detergents and directs application
stains improves remover’s detergent cleaning performance, renews whiteness, color and
appearance of garments. Enzymes designed for use in cleaning application are compatiable with
all commonly used detergent components such as nonionic and most anionic surfactants,
builders, anti-redisposition agents, optical brightness and oxygen-releasing bleaching agents. Use
of enzymes in household laundry detergents in environment friendly, since our enzyme products
are non-toxic completely biodegradable and help reduced clothes-washing energy consumption.
The most widely used especially detergents efficiently Hydrolyze or make-soluble, food-protein,
carbohydrate and fat stains. Specially Enzymes products, SEBrite-BP are a range of alkaline

proteases that when added to removal of protein-containing stains such as milk, egg, soya blood,
grass and body fluids of human origin. Dried protein containing stains tend to strongly adhere to
textile fibres binding other soils including inorganic materials, dirt and colored substances.
Specially Enzymes detergent proteases breakdown protein contain stains into more water-soluble
peptides, amino acids that can be rinsed away more easily. The use of specially Enzymes
detergent alpha-amylases enzymes such as SEBrite-BA and SEBrite-A in liquid and powder
laundry detergent solubilizes starch-containing stains such as baby food, mashed potatoes,
oatmeal, gravy, chocolate, tomato sauce and other starch thickened foods. Addition of our alpha-
amylases to laundry detergents and laundry pre-spotters, enhances removal of starch-containing
stain residues,Increases fabric whiteness, and reduces re deposition of starch-containing on co-
washed garments and fabrics.
B) Medical Instrument Cleaning Detergents:

Standard practices for cleaning, disinfection and re-use of flexible fiber optic endoscopes,
surgical instruments and other medical devices include manual pre-cleaning, and automated
washing/reprocessing with a highly concentrated enzymes containing detergent followed by
brushing of irregular surfaces to remove particular matter.
C) Filter Memrane Cleaning Detergent:

The use of ultra, nano and reserves osmosis filtration system, in food processing, for the
production of drinking water and for industrial wastewater treatment has grown considerably in
the last 10 years. Previous generation industrial filtration system were expansive and costly to
operate because they required frequent downtime for membrane cleaning. Filter membrane
technology has recently improved to the point that never, hollow-fiber, direct and cross flow
filtration system can be operated for long periods without fouling.
Problem of Soap & Detergent Industry:

Soap industry faces some problems increases of raw materials. The major ingredients like soap
ash, linear alkyl, Benzene & Sodium. Tripoli phosphate posse’s number of serious problems in
terms of availability. The demand supply gap vegetable oil is 1.5 to 2lakhs tons & is met through
imports. In recent times, price of caustic soda has shown ashes in the cheaper varieties of soaps
are quite high.

MCKINSEY’S 7S FRAMEWORK:
Introduction
The analysis of the company through the MCKINLEY’S 7s gives us to meaningful Information
and it would help us to verify the whole company within limited circumference. According to
this model there are seven basic dimensions which represent the core of managerial activities.
These are the levers which the executive use. The originators of the model have coned the
managerial variable with words beginning with the letters so as to increase the communication
power of the model. The 7s diagram illustrates the multiplicity inter connectedness of element
define an organization ability to change. The theory help to change managers thinking about
companies could be improved. It says that it is not just a matter if devising a new strategy
andfollowing neither it through nor it is a matter if devising a new strategy and following neither
it through nor it is a matter of setting up new systems and letting generate improvements
To be effectives there organization must have a high degree of fit, internal alignment among all
the sevens. All s are interring-related and a change in once as a ripple effect on all the others
Therefore analysis of the model involves a major role in the segmentation of the departments for
preparation of report. This will lead us to right decision regarding the status of the organization
The 7s model is better known as MKCINLEY’S this is because the two people who developed
this model tom peters and Robert waterman, have been consultants at MCKINSEY & co

PRODUCTION PROCESS
1. RECEPTION OF RAW MATERIALS
2. MIXING
3. NOODLER PLANT
4. BAR MACHINE
5. CUTTING MACHINE
6. WRAPPING
7. PACKING
8. DISTRIBUTION
1) RECEPTION OF RAW MATERIALS:

The first process is receiving the raw materials which are purchased from outside. The material is
purchased in bulk quantity from local market. It is bring from road transport and stored in store
house.
2) MIXING:
After receiving the raw materials from outside, the raw materials have to be mixed properly.
Take 1 kilo sodium sulfate, 500 grams magic ultra 120mt fragnance, 5grm sodium tri phosphate,
the first step making the soap is by measuring up all the ingredients as per the above list and put
each in individual container for convenience so all you have to do is pour each one and mine.

Prepare a mixing bowl large enough to accommodate all the ingredients mix first the sodium
sulfate magic ultra which serves as a faming agent to be detergent.
3) NOODLER PLANT:
After mixing of raw materials, next process is putting them into noodle plant. The product will
be passed by this plant then the cake will be fully mixed and avoid the cracks on the design of
the cake.
4) BAR MACNINE:
After mixing the product on noodle we are dumping the products here. Then they will get cake
long bars.
5) CUTTING MACHINE:
After cutting the detergent cakes, finally the water level must be reduced down to about 12%,
this is done by heating the soap to about 125 c under pressure and then spraying it into an
evaluated chamber at 40mmhg (5.3kpa). The latent heat of evaporation lost as to water Noels off
reduces the soap temperature down to 45 c at which temperature it solidifies on to the chamber
walls.
The soap chips are scraped off the walls and plodded by screws known as plodder warns to form
soap noodles the soap is now known as base or neat soap chip and can be converted in to a
variety of different soaps in the finishing stage.

7) WRAPPING:
After drying the detergent bars, the next process is wrapping after cutting the cake it will kept for
3&4 hour drying afterwards it will be wrapping by the machines or manually or hand packing.
8) PACKING:
After wrapping the detergent, they will be packed in boxes like 30 & 60 pieces in each box and
each box are stored in store room.
9) DISTIBUTION:
After packing the detergent cakes in boxes, they will be distributed to the wholesalers, retailers,
salesmen, for marketing them.

PROBLEMS:
1) The industry has a limited sales and promotional activities
2) Lack of experience in marketing

3) The organization doesn’t give the incentives for marketing executives like travelling
allowance etc. the executives didn’t show much interest to selling product to other place.
Interpretation:
In this industry the promotion of the product is less hence the sales of the product is limited and
also the marketing experience is less, the employees not get any incentives that’s why employees
don’t show much interest in sell the product. Company will try to give the incentives to improve
the sales.
STRUCTURE
The design of the organization structureisa critical task of the management of an organization.it
is a section of whole organization.it refers to organizational arrangement and relationship. It
prescribes formal relationship among various position and activities. Arrangement about
reporting relationship how an organizational members is to communicate with other members,
what role he has to perform and what roles and procedures exist to guide the various activity
performed by members all part of organizational structure.
STRATEGY
This is a high-level perspective on the business and how you plan to rise above your competitors
over time. Most likely you will be able to draw most of your strategy from the business plan that
should have been drafted when you were first getting started. In some case, your strategy could
be defined by the sub-section of the business in which your work. for example, if you are the
accounting manager within a larger organization , your strategy many relate to how you can best
may relate to how you can best provide the accurate data that is required by those above you as
opposed to having it relate the business operations as a whole.

SYSTEMS
This is the work that is taking place on a regular basis to keep the business operating and moving
forward. Most likely system is where you spend the vast majority of your time as a manager.
Making sure all of your employees are working on the right projects and getting them done in
time is the life of a leader within any business. Without systems that function properly, none of
the rest of the model will get you anywhere it should be pretty easy to get a handle on these hard
elements of the model. However, just by thinking of them in this way and making sure each is
aligned to the other, your management style could be improved or refined.
This is where it will get trickier for many people. The soft elements within this model are
somewhat harder to define, and definitely more difficult to quantify they are no less important,
however and the good leader will give them just as much time and attention as the previous
group
SHARED VALUES
This of this point as the overall culture of the company and the purpose behind everything that is
done .the shared values of an organization should stretch to all employees, to create a feeling of
cohesiveness and camaraderie.
STYLE
The style of leadership that you use should fall in line with both the culture of the organization,
and the needs of the organization, and the needs of your team. There are many different
leadership styles employed by managers depending on the situation so you will need to craft
your own approach to the job as you see best fit based on the circumstances around you.

STAFF
The strengths and weaknesses of your team is a classic leadership responsibility-but you also
need to know how to then get the most from them while also developing their skills along the
way a good leader will constantly be improving their team so they are stronger tomorrow than
they were today.
SKILLS
Skills in many ways, this point goes along with staff in terms of knowing what you can get done
in-house with the skills you have available to you. You never want to ask someone on your team
to do something they aren’t capable of, so having a strong understand of the skills within your
staff is something that you should prioritize.
Within these seven elements is essentially everything that a good manager needs to pay attention
to on a regular basis. You probably already have a good feel for many of these points but some
of them may be new to you –or you may have let them slides recently. Organizational alignment
is an important quality within any business, and following the MCKINSEY 7-s model is a good
way to get started working toward that goal. Take the time to review the model carefully and
then apply it to the existing condition of your company.

CHAPTER:4
SWOT ANALYSIS
SWOT ANALYSIS
The strength, weaknesses, opportunities,and threats involved in a project or in a business

venture. It involves specifying the objective of the business venture or project and identifying the
internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to achieving that objective.
SWOT is an acronym that stands for strength, weaknesses, opportunity and threats.as a company
plans its next move, it should consider all of these things before proceeding. The plan’s strengths
and weaknesses are factors within the company’s control. The company can then work to make
the most of its strengths and eliminate the weaknesses. Opportunities and threats, on the other
hand, are external factors within the community that could affect the project’s success. The
company does not have much control over situations.
Performing a SWOT analysis of a particular idea means that you are thoroughly thinking through
every aspect of the project before getting started. This allows you to estimate the project’s
success before a lot of time and capital. It can also give you confidence that you are on the right
track
For the SWOT technique to work within your company, everyone needs to be honest,
particularly about the company’s weaknesses.it may be tempting to say that your department can
handle the work, but if the reality is that you simply don’t’ have the manpower to take it on, the
project is doomed to failure. Dishonesty can cause a false sense of security from the SWOT.
A tool used by the organization to help the firm to identify its strength weakness, opportunities
and threats is called SWOT analysis. This analysis is used as a framework to help the firm
develop its overall corporate marketing or product analysis.

Strength and weaknesses are the internal factors of the organization and which are controllable.
Opportunities and threats arethe external factors of the organization and which are uncontrollable
