They are either trade secrets or tied up in patents that will be very difficult to locate (more likely the former).

Sadly there is no instrument which you can put a complex mixture in one end and out pops a recipe on how to replicate it.

In some countries producers are obliged to list the composition on the box.

Is "Airel" a typo, or is someone really producing such an Ariel clone?

Is "Unive lever" a typo, or is someone really playing on Unilever?

Not impossible, I just wonder.

It is not particularly comprehensive in the UK, 15-30% anionic surfactants and "whitening agents" among other things.
