Personal care

Personal care

Quats are well-known antiseptics and have a long history of use in topical products for personal care such as creams, facial scrubs and cleansing gels. They act on a wide range of microorganisms, from gram+ to gram- bacteria, moulds and yeasts. Our FeF Quats are colourless and odourless in finished product formulation, and their effectiveness in all pH ranges combined with their ability to mix well in both aqueous and oily phases, make them an ideal antimicrobial ingredient.

Applications

No matter the application, for formulations coming into contact with either healthy or damaged epithelial tissue, it is necessary to utilize only the purest and safest ingredients.

All our FeF Quats products are widely used in both human and veterinary topicals. Skin cleansing solutions: Benzalkonium Chloride is used for cleansing skin, mucous membranes, and wounds with a concentration of 0.01 to 0.1%.

If a formulation does not fall within our specified segments, we can help by finding the product in our existing assortment, or by developing a customised product.
