Are you looking for a less hazardous neutralizing agent? 

Omyasmart Technology is valuable to companies that are looking to take further steps to protect their employees and their health. Furthermore, they also want to offer their customers health-friendly products without amins or other hazardous substances.

 

Water-based products require a high pH value or additives to ensure longevity. Existing neutralizing agents on the market are highly caustic and skin-sensitizing which demands increased safety precautions. They are often corrosive and attack surfaces.

Stable over the years thanks to excellent pH buffering effect

Other additives tend to have unpleasant odors or contain VOCs. Biocides are also still used to extend durability but are increasingly being formulated out due to significant health hazards, such as skin irritation, and the associated hazardous substance labelling and classification. 

With Omyasmart technology, you can achieve a moderately high pH value and keep your water-based product stable over a long period of time due to its excellent pH buffering effect.
