Spectrastat™ G MB is a complete system for preservative-free cosmetic and personal care products. Spectrastat™ G contains no biocides or typical preservatives. Instead it uses multifunctional ingredients that have excellent efficacy as biostatic and fungistatic agents. It can be used as an alternative to traditional preservative blends that are seen as undesirable by the consumer. A special benefit of Spectrastat™ G is that it performs superbly at neutral pH, a state where many other alternative materials are ineffective.
