  Fragrance and Air Freshener Industry: Up- or Downswing?

Are people pampering themselves and continuing their standard beauty regimen even during these tough times? Are organizations continuing their orders of air freshener products and odor control products?

Are they budgeting their extraneous funds with a stricter eye? Or perhaps going full steam ahead, stubborn that just because the economy might not be in the best of states, that it will not stop them from continuing with their before-the-downswing-economic lifestyle?

How has the fragrance and air freshener industries been affected over the past few years? Are they on an upswing?

Cosmetic spending most likely varies on product and country. Nordic countries, or countries that have less ozone protection or an increase in UV rays, may spend more on skin protection creams or lotions. European countries with notable fashion industries, such as Italy and France, may be more interested in fragrances and scents.

We cannot forget the green movement, either. Natural fragrance and organic fragrance sales are seeing an increase in spend over synthetic fragrances and aromas, or are at least competing on a more equal playing field.

According to a 2007 Global Insight article, There is also a widespread and growing diversity of cosmetics products for men especially men’s fragrances and a growing demand for natural / organic products in most countries.

AlphaAromatics, based out of Pittsburgh, PA, offers natural fragrances, organic fragrances, synthetic fragrances and scents, scented candles and diffusers for your every fragrance and aromatic need.

Regardless if customers have cut back on non-essential spending, it has not and cannot be eliminated all together.

Part of a Mintel Oxygen Market Report states, Opportunities for growth as the economy climbs out of the recession exist because many consumers have merely cut back on spending on air fresheners, but have not stopped purchasing them altogether. This behavior reflects the importance of air fresheners in American homes.

There are a multitude of restroom and washroom hygiene products, aerosol solutions, sanitizer dispensers, and industrial deodorizers available, but Air-Scent International is a one-stop provider for all industrial cleaning and hygiene products.

Hygiene must be an issue on the fore-front of organizations minds, even during times of economic struggle, just as the continual focus on customer service, increasing ROI, and striving for a balanced budget must not waver during good times or bad.

There will always be supply and demand, and AlphaAromatics fragrance products and Air-Scents air fresheners and odor control products will continually be there to supply their customers demand.

Food Hygiene: The Importance of Using Different Chopping Boards for Different Foods

By Andrea Flint

  Food Hygiene - it’s a topic you probably have heard on televised cooking shows. There is a very good reason to understand the importance of using different chopping boards for different foods. There are some important differences in chopping boards as well, in the materials they are made from.

First, why use different chopping boards for different foods? This is a basic sanitation issue. Any time you cut with a blade, there can be tiny grooves left in the cutting boards. The grooves can harbor germs, and bacteria. It is very important to separate raw from cooked foods, in particular meats and poultry. You should also separate the meat from the poultry. This is accomplished by having several boards available and marked for each particular use.

By cutting raw meat on a board and later using the same board for working with cooked meat, the juices and any bacteria from the raw meat are transferred to the cooked meat, and can cause intestinal problems for the person who then eats that cooked meat. The same is true for raw vegetables. Of course, you would wash the vegetables to rid them of dirt and any contaminants, but with the groove situation and bacteria, you could also transfer the raw vegetable problems to your cooked food.

A far better solution is to purchase several chopping boards. If you have ever watched a certain popular cooking show chef, surely you would have heard him caution regarding the important of using different chopping boards. He mentions the ‘chicken police’ and ‘pork police’, and even has different colored cutting boards for each so they do not get mixed up. This is a great idea you can copy!

You can wash and disinfect chopping boards with soapy warm water, and a light diluted bleach solution. You can re-plane wood boards, and clean with coarse salt. Replace your board when needed. Do not put wood boards into dishwashers or soak them in water. A very light grade food quality mineral oil can be used on wood boards to help keep water out of the grooves.

Second, what about the materials chopping boards are made from? Common kitchen chopping boards are made from wood or plastic. Others are available, made from steel, glass, marble, or corian, but although these may be easier to clean than wood or plastic, they can damage your knife blade edges.

Food Hygiene starts with the importance of using different chopping boards for different foods. It ends with healthy meals and healthy, happy people!
