ToxiSHIELD (TM) DENATONIUM BENZOATE 
(CAS No 3734-33-6)

We are a major Denatonium Benzoate manufacturer worldwide. Denatonium Benzoate
was first discovered in 1958 during a search for better local anaesthetic. 
Because of its bitter taste and lack of any smell, the main use of ToxiSHIELD Denatonium Benzoate
is as a denaturant for Alcohol. The foulness of its taste and the fact that it is not
toxic or carcinogenic together make ToxiSHIELD DB an ideal additive to prevent people from ingesting
harmful liquids such as detergents, disinfectants, cleaning fluids, domestic garden
and horticulture products.

In the USA it was approved in 1960 for use in perfumes, perfumeries, toiletries, cosmetics
and other industrial uses.As a denaturant for alcohol ToxiSHIELD DB is now universally approved.
It is used in very small quantities, 10-40 ppm is generally sufficient; therefore
further use of alcohol as raw material for industrial purpose is not affected at all.

ToxiSHIELD Denatonium Benzoate is also effective in protecting pets. Dogs, and cats
are especially vulnerable to lapping up leaking radiator fluids, and are often get poisoned
unknowingly. Denatonium Benzoate is an easy and effective way to gain peace of mind.

ToxiSHIELD Denatonium Benzoate is available in powder and prill form.
ToxiSHIELD Denatonium Benzoate is also available as Solution in MEG.
