BENOSORB ®

BENOSORB is an all-purpose preservative.

BENOSORB has a strong bacterial growth-inhibiting action in yeasts, molds and microorganisms and inhibits the activity of butyric and acetic acid bacteria without affecting the taste and aroma of finished products.

Due to the combination of potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate, the spectrum of BENOSORB's action is much wider than the spectrum of individual preservatives.

The use of BENOSORB allows to:

• prevent bacteriological damage to food during preparation and storage
• increase the shelf life of food products several times
• preserve lactic acid bacteria that are useful for the human body
• increase economic efficiency (when using BENOSORB, it is 10-30% higher than with individual preservatives)

Composition

Potassium sorbate (E202) and sodium benzoate (E211).

White granules, almost odorless, stable when boiling.
