Aquabon DD
Organic approved fruit and veg dip

Introducing the Aquabon range. 
The Aquabon range is based on the natural biocide Citrox. Citrox is a biocidal product that is a hypoallergenic, natural biocide and virocide with long-acting, sanitizing characteristics. Citrox is extracted from oranges and grapefruits through a specialized process. The extract contains a mixture of natural ingredients that, when combined, produce an extremely powerful anti-bacterial, anti-mould and anti-fungus agent. The extract consists of Vitamin E, Vitamin P, Natural Sugars, (Fructose, Dextrose, Mannose, Maltose, Lactose) and miscellaneous organic acids, (L-Ascorbic acid, P-Coumaric acid, Caffeic acid, Citric acid). This powerful, anti-bacterial/virocidal agent is mixed with other food grade, safe products to produce Aquabon.

How it Works
When exposed to Aquabon bacteria experience membrane changes or damaging. It is this mechanism that is responsible for killing the bacteria and reducing growth, hence creating a sanitizing effect and at the same time prolonging the lifespan of fresh products. Aquabon DD has added organic surfactants for use with hard fruits and vegetables
