Preservative Eco

A new broad spectrum preservation system based on a combination of ingredients that have global acceptance - our most natural Preservative!
Buy Preservative Eco benefits uses UK

INCI Name

Benzyl Alcohol, Salicylic Acid, Glycerine, Sorbic Acid

What is it?

This is a new broad spectrum preservation system that can be included in natural and organic skin and hair care products. Its four components, Benzyl Alcohol, Salicylic Acid, Glycerine, Sorbic Acid, are all well accepted in a wide range of personal care products. This novel composition of this antimicrobial blend offers broad spectrum protection in a diverse range of products, against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeast and moulds. It is clear liquid with a mild smell. Natural Odour Reducer may be needed for fragrance-free and fragrance-sensitive formulations.

Benefits:

  • Non-paraben, non-formaldehyde, non-isothiazolone based preservative system.
  • Has wide global regulatory acceptance.
  • Broad spectrum activity on bacteria, yeast and moulds.
  • Suitable for use in oil-in-water, water-in-oil and anhydrous (non-water containing) formulas so compatible with a wide range range of skin, hair and sun care formulations.
  • Safe to use in products with a wide range of pH values (3-8).

Recommended dosage for Preservative Eco:

Recommended number of drops, grams and % per 100ml/g of product - 20 drops using small 0.7mm dropper/ OR 1g/ OR 1%. If product contains herbal decoctions or infusions - add 22 drops using small 0.7mm dropper/OR 1.1g/ OR 1.1% per 100ml/g. Because of the high quantity of Benzyl Alcohol in Preservative Eco and to meet the European Cosmetic Directive standards, the maximum amount use in products should be 1.15%.

Usage:

It is very important that Preservative Eco is added to your recipes for which heating is necessary when the temperature is below 45 degrees Celsius. So the best is to add the preservative in the third stage of making creams and lotions. However, every personal care formulation requires special attention. It is always important to ensure that every newly developed or altered formulation be challenge-tested to guarantee proper preservation.

When adding Preservative Eco to cold products (i.e. when no heating is required to make the product) make sure you mix it in thoroughly - a hand held electric stick blender may be useful if you find it doesn't mix in correctly.

Caution:

Due to the Salicylic Acid component in Preservative Eco, do not use it in products for children under 3 years of age, except in rinse-off products such as shampoos, shower gels, etc.

Further information about using Preservative Eco

  • Aromantic has challenge-tested 2 creams made using 1% Preservative Eco at Microbiological Consultancy Services and we now have the results back from their lab. The creams we tested are: Aromantic’s Mature Skin Cream; and Aromantic’s Active Cream 1 (which contains herbal infusions) and both passed the challenge test to comply with the criteria of the European Pharmacopeia for topical products. Our tests were successful but as I’ve said in my Preservatives article, the final responsibility for the end result of your products lies with you as we are not with you when you make your products.
  • If you are happy with the preservative you are using I see no reason to change preservatives. But if you want the most natural preservative that we offer to use in products containing detergents (shampoos, foam baths, shower gels, etc) then this may be the preservative for you.
  • Some common sense or safety rules when changing to other preservatives:
  • Change 1-2 products first, not all the products in your range.
  • Do your own stability test, see Newsletter 32. If still uncertain, get our Micrcountฎ Combi test kit.
  • If still not convinced, get your product challenge-tested.
  • Ideally, don’t start selling your ‘test’ products containing your new preservative until 6 months have passed from production date.
