Why doesn’t Omega Natural Hand Sanitizer use only the natural botanical extracts?
We have chosen to follow the dictates of the FDA. The FDA doesn’t recognize or allow the use of Thymol / thyme oil as an approved sanitizing ingredient. So, by law and the FDA, we can only use approved sanitizing ingredients. We do not want to use alcohol, because of it’s dangers, so the best allowable ingredient is Benzalkonium chloride. We only use the amount they require. This actually is in the favor of the consumer.
