Multifunctional fragrance acts as insect repellent

CPL Aromas has launched its InsectaGuard range, consisting of six fragrances. InsectaGuard presents a unique combination: a set of very pleasant fragrances which also are very effective insect repellents.

This is due to CPL's proprietary EcoBoost technology, which allows for less use of fragrance and more of its natural active ingredient. The range works against a variety of insects including mosquitos, midges, sand-flies, ticks, and black flies.

InsectaGuard fragrances carry a much more universally acceptable odour profile than only using active ingredients. An additional benefit for CPL customers is that InsectaGuard means a single, manageable fragrance purchase instead of having to buy fragrance and repellent ingredients separately. 

The use of InsectaGuard as on-skin repellent has been approved by both the EU BPR regulations on insect repellents and the IFRA global regulations on fragrances, based on extensive guideline formulations and supporting data. Other applications for InsectaGuard are in the testing phase.

CPL offers InsectaGuard in a range designed to appeal to markets around the world, to fulfil the need for an effective, natural yet pleasant insect-repellent fragrance.
