The wet wipes market has grown significantly during the past few years and has now become an important sector within the cosmetic and toiletry industry.

Wet wipes are inherently more prone to contamination than other standard cosmetic products.

the important considerations
necessary to ensure that wet wipe products are
effectively preserved with very little chance of
contamination.


The paper concludes that the following factors needs to
be considered carefully during development and
manufacturing wet wipes.

These are;
effective raw
material control,

good manufacturing practices and
effective selection of preservatives.


Preservatives used
in wet wipes must have good toxicological properties
as well as being highly effective against both bacteria
and fungi. The interaction of preservatives with raw
materials, fabrics and packaging must also be looked
at in more detail as this will have an impact on the
overall preservation of product.


INTRODUCTION
During the last few years, moistened tissue products
otherwise known as wet wipes have grown significantly
in importance within the personal care industry.
This is mainly due to the versatility of various forms of
products that have emerged recently. This variety exists
in the market place today with various wet wipes
designed for specific functions. Examples of wet wipes
commonly found in shops and other outlets are baby
cleansing wipes, sensitive facial cleansing wipes, extra
thick heavy duty wipes, make up remover wipes, after
sun cooling wipes, heated toilettes just to name a few.
In addition other household applications have seen the
use of wet wipes increased during the last few years.
It is not the scope of this paper to discuss these
products. This paper will focus on cosmetic wet wipes.
By design, wet wipes are inherently more susceptible to
contamination than many other types of cosmetic and
toiletry products, and as a result, formulators also need
to pay more attention in minimising the risks of
contamination.
The purpose of this paper is to examine the reasons as
to why wet wipes are difficult to preserve, and also look
at various solutions to overcome these problems.
1. Why minimise potential contamination of
wet wipes?
It is well known that micro-organisms can contaminate
and spoil several natural and man made products.
This has become an important consideration affecting
numerous applications1 ranging from paints, metal
working fluids, textiles, storage tanks, pipework to
cosmetics, household and pharmaceutical products.
In cosmetics and toiletries in particular, contamination of
product might lead to not just spoilage and product
damage but also health and safety implications if the
micro-organisms present are pathogenic.
The potential risks resulting from contamination of
cosmetic products and in particular wet wipes needs to
be addressed fully during all stages of the development
process. Without due care and attention, wet wipes
can become contaminated by common cosmetic
pathogenic organisms2 such as Pseudomonas
aeuroginosa, Staphylococus aureus, Candida
albilcans, Burkholderia cepacia, etc.
It is important to minimise the potential contamination
because of obvious health and safety risks associated
with these types of organisms. Pathogenic organisms
have been known to cause human health problems3,4 .
For example, Pseudomonas aeuroginosa has been
known to cause wound and eye infections whilst
Candida albicans can cause thrush5.
Any micro-organisms added to the skin from
contaminated wet wipes may overcome the skin’s
natural bacterial flora especially in the case of broken
skin or sensitive skin areas such as eyes, new born
babies, etc.
2. Contamination of Wet Wipes
Due to the ubiquitous nature micro-organisms, there are
a variety of sources of contamination of wet tissue
products. These sources include raw materials in the
form of ingredients; packaging; fabrics; bulk water;
from environment such as plant, equipment and air, and
also from manufacturing personnel. In addition there is
the possible misuse by the consumer.
Wet wipes often provide the ideal environment for
proliferation of micro-organisms due to the presence of
all the factors necessary to support growth. These are
suitable pH, temperature, water and nutrients.
The fabrics used also
provide large surface
area for proliferation of
micro-organisms.
3. Important
considerations to
overcome
In order to overcome
the problems
associated with
possible contamination
of wet wipes .....

Specifications

Tissue paper and tissue products - Part 5: Determination of wet tensile strength
Abstract:
This part of ISO 12625 specifies a test method for the determination of the wet tensile strength of tissue paper and tissue products after soaking with water, using a tensile-strength-testing apparatus operating with a constant rate of elongation.
Currently, two types of tensile-strength testers are commercially available, one where the test piece is positioned vertically and, for the other, horizontally. This part of ISO 12625 applies for both. For vertical tensile-strength testers, a device which is held in the lower grip of the tensile-strength tester, called a Finch Cup, is used to achieve the wetting. For horizontal tensile-strength testers, the soaking device is placed between the clamps.
It is expressly stated that the detection of impurities and contraries in tissue paper and tissue products should be applied according to ISO 15755.
For the determination of moisture content in tissue paper and tissue products, ISO 287 should be applied.
