AIR FRESHNER GEL

Excellent gelation agents for long-lasting fragrance

Agar Agar

Agar-Agar is one of the popular gelation agents used in the manufacturing of air freshener gels. It is one of the main elements in air freshener gels, as it keeps all the fragrance of essential oils intact. It is also popular among DIY enthusiasts as it is a cost-effective and natural way of creating gel based air freshener at home.

Carrageenan

Carrageenan is an another cost-effective ingredient for a long-lasting air-freshener gel with high transparency.

Gellan Gum

Gellan Gum is also a great option to use in air-fresheners as a gelling agent. It keeps all the essence intact to make the perfect clear air-freshener gel.



BIO FERTILIZER

For fruitful organic farming

Biofertilizers are widely used in agriculture and revolve around creating microbes that eventually help the plants and trees grow better. The biofertilizer manufacturing process is highly dependent on microbes. Therefore, the quality and quantity of microbes is important.

Agar can be an innovative alternative to synthetic polymers used in horticulture as it contains active bio stimulant compounds and also helps to hold water in the soil that aids plant growth with minimum water consumption.

Therefore, Agar Agar and Agar derived products play a crucial role in organic farming.



COSMETICS

Marine Hydrocolloids- An organic ingredient that truly cares for your skin and hair.

Agar Agar

The cosmetic industry is always on the lookout for innovative natural skin-friendly alternatives to synthetic products. Agar-Agar is widely used in cosmetics not only to give a gel based texture to the products but also because it has amazing benefits for skin. It helps to stabilize moisturising products such as lotions and creams as well as increase thickness in order to provide a smoother, creamier texture.

Meron’s DIY Peel off Masque-IT : It makes the mask mould to your face shape and it pretty much locks the ingredients, so it forces the goodness into your skin without letting anything evaporate or escape.

Carrageenan

Carrageenan is used for its emulsifying and suspending properties in cosmetics especially for skin-care products. Use of Carrageenan in skin-care products makes it organic without compromising on the overall effectiveness of the product.

Sodium Alginate

Sodium Alginate ensures that the products retain moisture and texture even at extreme temperature fluctuations. It is mostly used to make body lotions, creams etc.

Chitin and Chitosan

Chitin, Chitosan and their derivatives have multiple uses in three areas of cosmetics: haircare, skin care and oral care.

♦ Hair Care

Chitosan and hair carry opposite electrical charges – Chitosan positive and hair negative. Therefore, they are extensively used to produce hair care products such as shampoos, rinses, permanent wave agents, hair colourants, styling lotions, hair sprays and hair tonics.

• Chitosan forms a clear, elastic film on hair, increasing its softness and mechanical strength.
• Chitosan forms a gel when added to mixtures of alcohol and water.
• Chitosan as an antistatic protects hair from waxing and bleaching agents.
• Chitosan helps in retaining moisture irrespective of the humidity levels.
• Chitosan derivatives aid in creating foaming and emulsifying action.
• Chitin powder finds direct application in shampoo.

♦ Skin Care

Chitosan’s positive electrical charge, and high molecular weights of most chitosan products do not permit skin penetration. Thus, making Chitosan a good ingredient in skin moisturizer.

Owing to its low costs, it can be an alternative to hyaluronic acid. Chitosan and chitin can be found in creams, pack material, lotions, nail enamel, foundation, eye shadow, lipstick, cleansing materials and bath agents.



INSECT FEEDS

Unique usage for feeding insects

Insect farming is a growing industry, which includes processes that revolve around breeding certain insects like crickets, bugs etc. These are kept as livestock as food for animals and in some countries as food for humans. One of the challenges in breeding such livestock is to feed them with the right amount of food. Hydrocolloids such as Agar & Carrageenan provide effective solutions to feeding water to insects.

Agar Agar

Agar Agar provides crickets and other feeder insects with a safe, clean water source in a convenient gel form. This easy-to-use formula eliminates many of the problems associated with traditional watering methods, such as the formation of deadly bacteria and loss through drowning. Due to its unique characteristics, Agar has gained tremendous importance in the field of cricket farming.

Carrageenan

Carrageenan in its gel form is an excellent source of feed for crickets and other insects. It is usually given in a transparent, gel-based water like form. It is an efficient and easy to implement alternative to conventional watering methods that poses threats like formation of deadly bacteria, and loss of livestock due to drowning.



DENTISTRY

Non-toxic teeth impression materials that most dentists prefer.

Agar Agar

Dentists need precise teeth impressions to diagnose and treat oral issues. Agar can be transformed into gel at attainable temperatures. It is thermoplastic in nature, that means it gets soft or dissolves when heated and hardens or forms gel when cooled.

The thermoplasticity of Agar makes it a popular choice among dentists for cast duplication, full mouth impression and tissue conditioner. Even in their hardened state they are soft and have gel-like structure and transparency.

We produce industry grade Agar products that adhere to all the guidelines that ensure the oral safety of the patient. Our agar products for dentistry have been loved and accepted by doctors to create perfect molds.

Sodium Alginate

Alginate is also preferred by dentists to create mouth impression as it is a safe and cost-effective product. This is an irreversible hydrocolloid.

Chitin & Chitosan

Chitin and Chitosan can be used in producing oral care products such as toothpaste, mouthwashes and chewing gum. Their unique biochemical properties help in freshening the breath and prevent the formation of plaque and tooth decay.

Salts of chitosan mask the unpleasant taste of silicon oxide and bind powders usually found in regular toothpastes. It also helps in maintaining their granular shapes.

Chitin serves as a dental filler material.
