Euxyl® PE 9010

Euxyl® PE 9010 is a globally accepted, broad-spectrum preservative blend that combines phenoxyethanol with ethylhexylglycerin. Known for its effectiveness at low levels and compatibility with a wide range of formulations, it provides reliable protection against bacteria, yeast, and mold. With its low odor profile, it is especially suited for sensitive skin products and fragrance-forward formulas. We use it in Fyrn™ lotions, creams, and washes to ensure long-lasting freshness and safety.
