Benzyl Alcohol (and) Salicylic Acid (and) Glycerin (and) Sorbic Acid

Ecoguard is a synergistic multi-component preservative system combining benzyl alcohol's broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity with salicylic acid's keratolytic and antimicrobial properties, enhanced by glycerin's humectant benefits and sorbic acid's antifungal efficacy. This liquid blend is specifically designed for natural and organic cosmetic formulations, offering effective preservation at lower pH ranges while maintaining a clean label profile. Formulators choose this system because it provides robust protection against bacteria, yeast, and mold while the glycerin component adds moisturizing benefits, making it particularly suitable for leave-on products and formulations seeking natural preservation alternatives.
