New Zealand’s world class
scientists and researchers have, in recent decades, been exploring the potential
for value-added products in the agriculture and bio-technology sectors. As a
result, innovative cosmetic, oral hygiene and toiletry products are starting
to emerge using plant and animal extracts, fine minerals and milk by-products.
Bee products are a good example with New Zealand Propolis extract having
been scientifically proven and recognised for its ability to inhibit and
kill plaque
bacteria and for its anti-inflammatory and gum healing properties. Oral
care products containing Propolis extracts are sought after, particularly
in Asia.
Fine, natural minerals from New Zealand’s pristine waters, such as
dolomite, are also in demand, for their ability to remove dental stains
without harming
tooth enamel.
Plant extracts such as Manuka and Kanuka (Tea Tree) oils have been shown
to be active against a broad range of bacteria and are replacing synthetic
preservatives.
Milk protein complexes, used in dental toothpastes and creams to restore
tooth enamel, are now available at affordable prices.
With organic cosmetic and toiletry products likely to be available soon
and research continuing into plant therapeutics and biotechnology in general,
New Zealand will continue to offer leading edge products to the rest of
the world.
