Fragrances in Neways Products
Neways has traditionally avoided the use of
fragrances in our products because of potential
concerns, such as the following:
-
Sensitivity to certain chemical compounds in
both natural and synthetic fragrances and
reactions to these sensitivities that can vary
from mild to extreme.
-
Certain synthetic fragrances may be combined
with potentially harmful chemical byproducts,
such as phthalates.
In 2005, the European Union was the first major
government to address this fragrance issue, and they
identified 26 common allergenic sensitizers. These
are chemicals found in both natural and synthetic
fragrances—and in fact, some of these chemical
compounds are found in a variety of pure natural
essential oils.
Upon looking into possibilities for all-natural
fragrance (pure essential oils), we found that there
were very few natural fragrance components that
would achieve a pleasant product essence yet keep
the stability of our products intact. As a result,
Neways took the opportunity to follow the lead of
the European Union in addressing this concern and is
one of the first major companies to avoid these
potential allergens as we formulate our products.
Neways has carefully selected both natural and
synthetic EU allergen-friendly fragrances for use in
our product range. Each fragrance is free of
phthalates and other potentially harmful chemical
byproducts. As a result, the fragrances in the
product formulas that require them are safe and
allergen friendly, and they have been embraced by
our distributors worldwide.
