02MATERIALS
The chemistry of stability
Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, a compound that has found its place in both culinary and cosmetic science. In its granular state, it presents as a clean, white substance that dissolves readily into liquids. This chemical structure allows it to interact with the environment of your product, creating conditions that are less hospitable to unwanted microorganisms while remaining neutral to taste and scent.
04PRACTICALITY
Ten kilograms of managed storage
The product arrives in a 11 kg packing carton, containing 10 kg of granules distributed across resealable zip lock pouches. This format is practical for bulk users, allowing you to open only what is needed while keeping the remainder secure. The zip locks help maintain integrity between uses, which is essential given the ingredient’s sensitivity to environmental factors.
CARE
Sheltered from heat and light
To preserve its efficacy, the granules should be stored away from direct heat and light. While stable under normal handling conditions, exposure to intense warmth or brightness can compromise the material over long periods. A cool, dark cupboard or shelf is the ideal resting place. If contact with skin or eyes occurs during handling, thorough rinsing is recommended, treating the powder with the same respect one would give any active ingredient.
