PRESERVATIVE A2 PLUS

PRESERVATIVE A2 PLUS

Preservative A2 Plus is a powerful and broad spectrum system based on established cosmetic preservatives, alternative to parabens. It is effective against bacteria, yeasts & moulds at reduced use levels, works over wide range of pH and does not affect the appearance of cosmetic products.
Preservative A2 Plus is a synergistic combination of Diazolidinyl urea, which represents one of the most effective antibacterial agent, & Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate that is the most powerful antifungal for cosmetics. This ratio of components provides strong broad-spectrum protection and gives the maximum antimicrobial activity with the lowest level of preservatives.
