Geogard Ultra® is a patented natural broad spectrum preservative, consisting of a synergistic blend of Gluconolactone (CAS: 90-80-2) and Sodium Benzoate (CAS: 532-32-1). The synergy between these two ingredients makes this preservative unique, allowing for its broad spectrum efficacy. Geogard Ultra® benefits from a wide range of global regulatory acceptance, is easy to formulate and is ECOCERT/COSMOS accepted, NATRUE and Soil Association approved.Often organic acids require a co-preservative or an additional booster to provide an optimal performance, as they are too weak on their own. In this blend, the Gluconolactone (polyhydroxy acid or PHA) works in conjunction with the sodium benzoate to perform as an efficient preservative booster. The gluconolactone works by slowly releasing gluconic acid over time, which helps contribute to the preservation effect.
