Proprietary high performance fragrance delivery systems

  • AromaGel®: a comprehensive line including oil-based and water-based fragrance gel matrixes for every controlled-release fragrance application. All our AromaGel technologies are environmentally compliant and formulated for your custom application.
  • MetaGel™: a patented air freshener gel matrix that contains up to 85% active fragrance. MetaGel products are manufactured without the use of heat, eliminating fragrance loss during manufacturing and packaging. They are also thermoset gels that will not melt, making them perfect for applications like auto air fresheners where temperatures can reach 160°F. This technology is currently used by some of the world’s leading manufacturers of fragranced products under a special licensing agreement with Agilex.
  • BiMetal™: a patented air freshener delivery system that utilizes a temperature-sensitive device to control the opening and closing of an air freshener container. This cost efficient active system provides more uniform fragrance release rates regardless of temperature. When combined with MetaGel, BiMetal is perfect for auto air freshener applications where temperatures can vary greatly.
  • AromaReed™: a home fragrance that is both decorative and highly effective. Reed diffusers are quickly becoming the new performance standard for home environmental fragrance delivery and Agilex is an industry leader in this category. AromaReed consists of specially formulated proprietary fragrances which provide maximum capillary action. The fragrance wicks up through the reeds, providing excellent evaporation and fragrance strength. Our fragrance eliminates the need to flip the reeds and provides linear fragrance performance up to 180 days.

  • ThermoClear™: a thermoplastic air freshener that is a unique polyamide composition containing a high percentage of fragrance. These clear systems contain up to 80% fragrance loading with a melting point of 120-130ºF.
  • AromaPoly® Series: a line of fragrance polymer concentrates in which fragrance oils are encapsulated in a multi-component polymer alloy. These products are available in bead form with active fragrance loads ranging from 15% to 45%. They can be utilized in their current form or downloaded for use in injection or extrusion molding. Specific formulations compatible with the following polymers are available: PE, PP, PVC and EVA. Manufacturers have found AromaPoly is ideal for a wide range of products that include auto air fresheners, toys, household products, trash bags, personal care products, medical supplies, consumer goods, and more.
  • AromaPuffs®: a foamed fragrance polymer bead technology designed as a finished product for use as an air freshener, simmering potpourri and fragrance sachet applications. A wide variety of fragrance types and colors are available.
  • Solid Spray™: A thixotropic spray technology that appears solid, but sprays in a fine mist when dispensed from a pump spray bottle. This technology can be used in most water-based formulas for personal care, sunscreen, insect repellent or functional applications.
  • VanillaWhite™: a patent-pending fragrance additive for use in aqueous products when discoloration and odor degradation occur through the addition of a fragrance containing vanilla or certain spice ingredients. This technology has proven effective in soaps, shampoos, lotions, air fresheners, gels, cosmetics and cleaning products.

Agilex Candle Technologies

  • AromaSuspension™: a patented innovation that combines clear candle wax technology with paraffin or natural vegetable waxes. Botanicals and flammable objects can be suspended in a layer of clear, high-melt material with an integral flame retardant, eliminating the need for a physical barrier.
  • AromaPearl®: a unique combination of two patented technologies that result in a clear candle with a rich, pearl finish that provides uniquely aesthetic appeal.
  • AromaCrystal®: an innovative line of all natural candle wax with a distinctive crystalline appearance. AromaCrystal waxes are all vegetable based; paraffin and petroleum hydrocarbon-free, and feature the ability to hold up to 25% fragrance.

Proprietary fragrances that are now part of the Agilex offering include:

  • Neutrex® Odor Concentrates: ideal for neutralizing unpleasant malodors that may result from environmental conditions, manufacturing operations or odorous active ingredients.
  • SensiTech™: fragrances that combine aesthetic performance of the Agilex fragrances and the odor counteraction properties of Neutrex Odor Concentrates.
  • Treasaires®: macro-encapsulated water-based gel crystals that can be used as a simmering crystal potpourri, insect repellant, concentrated static auto freshener and other applications; contains fragrance levels as high as 6% and shrinks to provide an excellent use indicator.
