Evicide® levulinate : Modern Natural Preservative

Lately, personal care industry has been superiorly driven by natural ingredients due to rising consumers’ consciousness for physical health and mental wellbeing as well as their will for safer beauty products free of toxic chemicals.

Have you ever wondered about the impact that a small proportion of product composition can have on your product like moisturizer that glides through the skin layers every morning or soap you slather on your body every night?

Preservatives contribute to a greater extent in each formulation range with no exception to the rule. This have been quite evident on how synthetically manufactured preservatives since decades have been gradually eradicated in the seek for natural alternatives

The preservative can be empirically powerful for the formula as well as for the skin!

Evicide® stands for modern natural preservation. With the advancements in technology and electrifying concepts, the need for efficacy orientation has changed fundamentally in the personal care industry.

Alongside that nature-identical food preservatives which are skin friendly became acceptable which stimulates its multifarious behavior.

Evicide® levulinate is the green platform chemical with multifunctional property at a very good cost- performance ratio. Besides its PH regulating effect, ability of boosting preservation & skin conditioning properties, it is mainly used for its antimicrobial activity as it stands out in terms of efficacy.

What is the mode of action?

The most common classical preservatives agents are the weak acids. Eg. Sorbic acids, benzoic acids, levulinic acids. The inhibitory action is classically believed to be due to
• Inhibition of essential metabolic reactions
• Stress on intracellular PH homeostasis
• The accumulation of toxic anions
• Membrane disruption

Evicide® levulinate is best understood if you consider the target at a cellular level.

Microorganisms are very sensitive to changes of the pH in their organism, but not that much in the outside environment. Just like humans who have a sophisticated pH buffer in the blood, if something goes wrong with the pH in our blood we will feel it very quickly and the consequence can be dramatic. Same for microorganisms. They have developed a barrier in their membrane that allows them to survive in a broad pH range. However, if we design a molecule to enter the microbes and change the pH from the inside then we have a powerful antimicrobial active. That’s the case with Evicare® levulinate.

Want all natural products and easy formulations?

We get that!

Evicide® levulinate is mild natural antimicrobial agent that potentially contribute to versatile and flexible formulation process. It is an extremely powerful bactericide gaining an equal attention for its soothing and moisturizing properties.

The ability of the product is well-defined by its functionality and the easy process of formulation. Evicide® levulinate is readily driven in any given formulation which imparts a primary role of antimicrobial agent at the specific dosage as well as the secondary role of effectively boosting the biocide efficacy at a relatively smaller inclusion.

Majorly the products which eliminates water from the formulation doesn’t require preservative. This makes it an ideal preservative for the water based systems. It is fully water-soluble preservative which allows easy experimentation of reliable textures and promising Cost Efficient Globally approved Multifunctional additive.

What’s more?

Evicide® levulinate is complete system for “Preservative Free” & “100% Natural” claims personal care products. It uses multifunctional agents that have excellent efficacy as biostatic and antimicrobial characteristics.

As our scientific understanding of all things “Natural” is rapidly increasing and expanding which can be evidentially seen as drastic change in market, we should make time to communicate the subtleties of chemical distinctions to the public.

We understand that as ethical brand owners, you have the legal and moral responsibility of making sure the products you sell are effective and safe. Period.
