Cinnamal is an exceptionally potent natural antimicrobial that also serves as the primary aromatic compound in cinnamon bark. Due to its high intensity, it is effective at very low concentrations (“a tiny bit goes a long way”), which is critical for maintaining a balanced sensory profile in finished formulations. Within the Mindera® philosophy, it is not used as a standalone preservative but as a cornerstone of a multi-hurdle synergistic strategy.
Key Benefit: Provides high-potency “green” antimicrobial protection that is globally compliant when used within the recommended synergistic framework.
The Mindera® Synergistic Framework
Achieving broad-spectrum protection requires the specific combination of Cinnamal with other Mindera® actives to cover the full range of bacteria, yeast, and mould:
Essential Partner 2: Mindera® MA (Synergistic antimicrobial booster),
Core Antimicrobial: Cinnamal (High-potency botanical protection).
Essential Partner 1: Mindera® AA(Synergistic antimicrobial booster).
