DBDCB - an alternative for In-Can Preservation in Europe
With the publication of the 15th ATP, only a limited choice of biocide formulations remains available in Europe, that do not trigger the H317 label on the end product. DBDCB-based products are a good alternative for the preservation of various in-can products.
Advantages of DBDCB
- No H317 limit up to 1% in end product
- Long-term efficacy
- Strong against microorganisms in particular Pseudomonas and Fusarium
- Good chemical compatibility*
* Except for nucleophiles such as sulphurous compounds (hydrogensulphite, mercaptane, etc.) or primary amines
DBDCB formulations can serve as perfect alternative in your preservation system
DBDCB is a good combination partner. It is available in several formulations that are available in Europe. Preventol® DBC is an efficient alternative for BIT based products. Furthermore, we also offer a CMIT/MIT free option and one formulation that is completely free of isothiazolinones.
Pick the option you need and contact us for a trial.
