Why we use phenoxyethanol?


Phenoxyethanol can be begin by itself in blooming tea, but the bartering additive is synthetically produced in a class creating what’s termed a nature identical chemical. Specifically, it’s created by alleviative phenol with ethylene oxide in an acrid average which all reacts to anatomy a pH-balanced ingredient.
We use phenoxyethanol in a actual low absorption as a bactericide in 5 of our articles (Stain Remover, Multi-Surface Spray, Dish Soap, Hand Soap & Laundry Detergent) because the a lot of attainable alternatives for these types of formulas cover parabens and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. Both are classes of chemicals with ascertainable affirmation of abeyant bloom risks, admitting phenoxyethanol is actual safe at low levels. It’s been activated on the derma and eyes and it is balmy and non-sensitizing at levels of 2.2% or lower while getting able at alone 1% concentrations. The European Union and Japan both accept its use up to that 1% akin and our formulas abatement able-bodied beneath the advocacy at 0.5% or beneath (depending on the specific product).

Even better, phenoxyethanol doesn’t acknowledge with added ingredients, air, or light. This affectionate of adherence makes it an abnormally able preservative.
