About Plantaecure
In 2019 I set out to develop a tick repellent and 7 years later realized I had invented a leading-edge emulgel spray insect repellent line that provides optimal protection for people, pets and horses, against ticks, mosquitoes and various other bugs.
The company was founded as a result of a consequential tick-bite and has the mission of innovating the future of holistic medicine.
The products are manufactured in a residential setting in my hometown of Bristol, Vermont, in small batches with attention to detail. I source only the highest quality ingredients available and BPA-free PET plastic bottles which offer glass-like containment.
I’ve vetted just about all of the EPA-allowed ingredients for 25b products before discovering my groundbreaking sprayable-gel solution. Xanthan-gellan based emulgels (emulsion gels) are used in top tier dermatological delivery systems that can last for days on the skin.
In addition to their film-forming properties, which is ideal for an insect repellent, emulgels are also known for their luxurious skin-feel, combining the nourishing creamy properties of an emulsion with the glide of a gel.
With repellent science, the manufacturer has to balance various factors to optimize safety and efficacy. These include skin-feel, skin-safety, efficacy, stickiness, oiliness, scent and sprayability. I’ve spent a lot of time trying to get this right, and while customer feedback has been positive I will continue to adapt my formulas to customers’ needs.
I’m committed to the health sciences and developing wholesome solutions to the problems we face.
Thank you for your support and feel free to contact me/us if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Ash / Team Plantaecure
