Product Description

Sodium Benzoate is a commonly used food preservative that is both safe and effective. It is soluble in water and has a slight odor. Sodium Benzoate is used to prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other harmful microorganisms in food and beverage products.

Sodium Benzoate is approved by regulatory agencies around the world, including the US Food and Drug Administration, as a safe food additive. It is commonly used in a wide range of food and beverage products, including soft drinks, fruit juices, pickles, and condiments. It is also used in personal care products and pharmaceuticals.

One of the benefits of Sodium Benzoate is that it is effective against a wide range of microorganisms, including yeast, bacteria, and mold. This makes it an ideal choice for preserving food products that are susceptible to spoilage. Sodium Benzoate is also relatively affordable and easy to use, meaning that food manufacturers can incorporate it into their products without causing significant increases in cost.

Sodium Benzoate is also allowed as an animal food additive at up to 0.1%, according to AFCO's official publication.
