Abstract
Enzyme granulates contain besides the enzyme water-soluble and water-insoluble fillers, binders and if required other additives for granulates. In order to stabilize the enzyme, an alkaline or earth alkaline metal formiate is added, as well as reducing sugar, if required. These enzyme granulates may contain all usual enzymes for washing and cleaning purposes, in particular alkaline proteases. A process for preparing these enzyme granulates, as well as their use in powdery washing product compositions are also disclosed.
