hi, you could change the Tensied formulation slightly. I am not sure which texapon you are using so I am not sure of your main Tensied.
But you could add some Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate it will especially boost fine foam and is very nice in touch. switching out 2,5% of the Texapon to the Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate will do wonders I would guess.
it can although be beneficial if you add a complexing agent to the formulation sometimes if the water is very hard and there are many Ca and Mg Ions there it can lead to low foam as well. if you add a complexing agent that can help with that. Classically you would use EDTA
Or if you are not using NLES you could add some of that it is not the gentlest But the Foaming is very much the best you can get from the Cost/amount ratio.

What mentioned above+ what type of soil are they washing? This may help to know what you need. Otherwise this formula should work.

A small amount (0.2%) of Hydroxypropyl Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride may also help improve the quality of your foam.
