ISCA's preservatives and preservative-free antimicrobial blends are formulated to offer broad spectrum protection using optimised and innovative synergistic blends.

Iscaguard® IAF


Iscaguard® IAF is an aqueous blend of naturally occurring fruit acids, suitable for preserving both rinse-off and leave-on products.

It has a broad spectrum of activity and is effective against bacteria, yeast, mould and fungi. The preservative-free blend also contains naturally sourced, GMO free Propanediol which provides improved skin moisturisation characteristics, in addition to boosting the efficacy. Iscaguard IAF is therefore the perfect choice for skin friendly formulations.
