Potassium Sorbate
The potassium sorbate supplied by System Star Industrial Products is a high-quality food-grade preservative widely used in food and beverage processing industries. It works by inhibiting the growth of mold, yeast, and certain bacteria, helping maintain product freshness and safety during storage and distribution.
