Have you heard about supercritical CO2 extraction systems in the cosmetic sector? These innovative systems use carbon dioxide in its supercritical state to extract pure, green ingredients for natural and organic cosmetics. This method ensures that the final product is free from any chemical residues and maintains the integrity of the ingredients, making it a popular choice for eco-conscious consumers. The use of natural and organic ingredients in cosmetics is becoming increasingly important as people are becoming more aware of the impact of synthetic chemicals on their health and the environment. By opting for products that are sourced and processed sustainably, we can create a more sustainable future for our planet. So next time you're shopping for cosmetics, make sure to look for products that are made with supercritical CO2 extraction systems and natural or organic ingredients. Not only will you be supporting a more environmentally friendly industry, but you'll also be treating your skin to the purest and most effective ingredients available. #greenbeauty #organicskincare #supercriticalextraction

The time is ripe to future-proof odor control in textile through safer and more sustainable alternatives to silver-based technologies! Silver has long been valued for its antimicrobial properties and is extensively used in odor control applications, particularly in textiles, medical devices, and personal care products. While silver-based technologies effectively reduce odors by killing bacteria, they can potentially result in significant environmental, health, and economic side effects and create operational challenges for manufacturers and brands to comply with regulations. The potential for bioaccumulation, cytotoxicity, antibiotic resistance, and increased costs highlights the need for more sustainable and safer alternatives to silver-based technologies. At the same time, antimicrobial activity is actually not required for efficient odor management. Odor-absorbing and neutralizing technologies, including permanently positively charged surfaces, offer effective solutions without the associated risks of antibacterial agents. Stakeholders, including brands, manufacturers, regulators, and consumers, must work together to promote the adoption of these safer technologies for a healthier future. Livinguard Technologies has been a thought-leader and pioneer in this endeavour by launching Livinguard AO a future-proof, performant, environmentally friendly and safer technology based on functionalizing textile surfaces through a positive charge.
