KEM PBD
Kem PBD is a liquid system based on globally accepted cosmetic preservatives. This is a balanced and gentle to skin combination with broad spectrum antimicrobial activity, suitable for the protection of rinseoff & leave-on cosmetics with slight acid pH up to 6. Kem PBD represents an effective mild alternative in cosmetic preservation, which may replace paraben blends and other questioned preservatives. This system meets the stringent demands of today’s personal care products for safety and efficacy, allowing the creation of formulations for global distribution. Kem PBD combines the antibacterial action of phenoxyethanol, the antibacterial/antifungal action of benzoic acid with the antifungal action of dehydroacetic acid. The blend is an optimised combination effective against Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, yeasts & moulds.
