Abstract

The aqueous paste contains an alkyl glucoside as non-ionic surfactant and an .alpha.-sulfofatty acid disalt as anionic surfactant; a thickener, for example carboxymethy cellulose, may also be present for adjusting viscosity. The paste-form detergent is produced by mixing concentrated aqueous pastes of the surfactants and, optionally, the thickener, the pH optionally being adjusted to a substantially neutral value by addition of a regulator. The paste-form detergents are suitable both for the washing of laundry and for the washing of hard surfaces, for example dishes.
