(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 06, 2015 ) Westendorf, Tirol -- Going green with commercial cosmetic and personal care products is easier than in the past, but manufacturers cite a number of obstacles to widespread adoption of products that utilize natural ingredients. Federal regulations and higher costs for ingredients are among the top reasons manufacturers give for fewer green options, along with fluctuating supplies and GMO contamination.
"Traceability is a common problem for many manufacturers," said Mountainbreeze Naturals founder, Helga Riedmann. "We use all natural, organic ingredients in our antifungal soap and manufacture in the U.S. to ensure quality, efficacy and safety."
Consumers have fueled the market for natural cosmetics and healthcare products. They expect their green purchases to be devoid of synthetics, preservatives and additives, along with detergents and alcohol. Parabens are preservatives that are widely used in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products and they're of special concern for consumers. Critics cite studies that link parabens to estrogen disruption, reproductive issues and breast cancer.
It's not just the desire for safer health and beauty aids with which individuals are concerned. An environmentally aware customer base is demanding products that are sustainable, reduce the carbon footprint, and result in minimal ecological impact. Many manufacturers say another hurdle they face is shopper perception that green products aren't as effective.
Organic Monitor is one of the leading information sources on organic products and practices. The firm's research indicates that the traditional Western lifestyle of conspicuous consumption and intense usage of resources are major deterrents for companies aspiring to green products. Many manufacturers seeking an entry into the green market are utilizing ingredients that include tea tree oil, jojoba, coconut and aloe vera.
Consumers aren't aware that multiple levels of "organic" certifications are offered. The certifications relate to the way ingredients were produced, not necessarily the finished product.
Mountainbreeze Naturals is one of an elite number of manufacturers that use all natural and organic ingredients in their tea tree oil antifungal soap. Riedmann supports sustainability, minimal environmental impact, and green products derived from Mother Nature's bounty to address an extensive array of beauty and personal care requirements.
