Preservatives
Description of Preservatives
What are preservatives? Preservatives come in many different varieties and in IngreCore’s definition, these are natural or synthetic ingredients that prevent decomposition by microbial growth. This means physical preservation, such as drying is not included. Chemical preservation by chemical preservatives or natural preservatives with antimicrobial properties prevents or slows degradation by bacteria, yeasts and/or molds.
Food Preservation
It is common knowledge that food products are at risk of expiring and therefore need physical preservation (eg refrigeration or food packaging). Another way of food preservation is by using food additives, which are added to canned foods, processed meats or soft drinks to name a few applications. These food preservatives extend the freshness of food and help to lengthen the shelf life, slowing or preventing changes in the look, feel and smell of the food products.

Ingrephen PCGS is a liquid preservative system that provides broad spectrum protection and enhanced fungi protection in a pH range of 3-6. It is based on widely accepted cosmetic preservatives Phenoxyethanol and Sorbic Acid and boosted by Caprylyl Glycol, which provides emollient properties and improves skin tolerability. The combination provides a gentle, reduced content alternative to traditional preservatives.
Poly-e-Lysine
Aluminium bags of 1 KG
Epsilon Polylysine is a polymer consisting of 25-40 repeats of the essential amino acid Lysine. It's commonly used as a natural preservative in personal care products. It offers broad-spectrum protection against microbes, but it can also be compounded with other preservatives. Upon degradation, it falls apart into Lysine, making it a nutritional preservative. Epsilon Polylysine is easy to use and applicable in a wide range of applications and formulations.

Globally approved without restrictions for cosmetic applications, IngreCare BS provides a broad spectrum of antibacterial properties and high activity against yeasts and molds. Composed of nature-identical ingredients, IngreCare BS is suitable for natural and organic cosmetics and a wide variety of products with acid pH levels between 2 and 5.5. Soluble in water, glycerin and glycols (slightly soluble in alcohols), IngreCare BS is a balanced combination of sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate and is an increasingly popular preservative system.It’s a liquid yellowish to brownish blend of Potassium Sorbate and Sodium Benzoate preservatives and water (respectively ~15%, ~30% and ~55%), with a shelf life of 18 months in original packaging. It should be stored in tightly closed containers at temperature below 25oC and kept away from direct sunlight and protected from frost. IngreCare BS is recommended to be used to protect especially aqueous systems and emulsions against microbial growth at concentrations of 0.2-1.0% in personal care formulations with low risk of bacterial contamination. Cosmetic products with higher risk of bacterial contamination may need a different minimum level and combination with other preservatives.
