Preservatives & Antimicrobials

Preservatives & Antimicrobials for Cosmetic and Personal Care Formulations

Harmony Mists supplies a range of Preservatives & Antimicrobial Ingredients for cosmetic and personal care manufacturers seeking to protect formulations against microbial contamination and maintain product quality throughout their intended shelf life. These ingredients play an important role in the development of water-based and other formulations that may be susceptible to microbial growth.

Preservatives are incorporated into cosmetic formulations to help control the growth of bacteria, yeast and mould, depending on the preservative system and formulation conditions. Appropriate preservation is an important consideration for products containing water and other ingredients that can support microbial growth.

Our portfolio can include organic acids and their salts, preservative blends, antimicrobial ingredients and multifunctional preservation-support ingredients, providing formulators with options for different product types and formulation requirements.
