Organic Antioxidants and Preservatives

Currently, parabens are the most widely used preservatives in cosmetic products. These compounds are used to prevent the growth of bacteria and molds, but they can also pose a health risk to the consumer. Therefore, there is a growing interest in searching for paraben-free alternatives. In order to replace these substances, the problem was the availability of a full spectrum, product.

Microorganisms cause spoilage of both food and cosmetic ingredients, resulting in a reduction of the quality and quantity of the final product. Some spices and herbs have biologically active substances that inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms, thus enhancing the shelf life of the product they are added to. Antioxidants help to enhance the shelf life of oils, by inhibiting lipid peroxidation and other processes. These substances protect the oil from exposure to high temperatures, sunlight and other conditions that damage it.

The use of plant-based natural antioxidants/preservatives is becoming more and more common in the food and in the cosmetic industry, since these substances are believed to possess anti-cariogenic potential and other health-promoting effects, including anti-inflammatory properties and antimicrobial activity.

Organic Danox Preservative 7000 ,7000F and R-7000 are oil solution of natural antioxidants with striking anti-microbial properties. It is a synergistic mixture of the extract from best quality dry leaves of organic Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), combined with the organic volatile oil steam-distilled from the best quality dried fruits of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare).

Organic Danox Preservative 7000 , 7000F and R-7000 are produced using our unique Internally Stabilization (I.S.) technology, making the final product more resistant to oxidation and degradation, by using the natural antioxidant properties of Rosemary and Fennel. This natural preservative if applied properly at 5000 ppm level will allow formulators to design chemical-free formulations thus enhancing the value of cosmeceuticals.

Organic Danox Preservative 8000 is a very strong preservative, specially designed for powder applications. This preservative protects powders against oxidation and loss of antioxidants.
