For Customers
We enable fast access to complex and regulated disinfection products and rapid go-to-market timings, both in retail and professional markets.
Large global brands use our technologies and our proprietary formulations in their products.
Hygienix is a trusted partner with a proven track record in building long lasting and highly profitable partnerships with brand leaders in various industries across the globe. Hygienix owns the registrations, patents, know-how, formulations and test data, which we license out to our partners.
The corporate mission is to become the global alternative for user unsafe and environmentally burdening antimicrobials.
Our customers are large, global homecare and personal care companies, as well as professional B2B companies selling cleaning & disinfection products, and paper-related or sanitary products, but also local brands, industry specialists (in veterinary, food, institutional, washroom services, etc.), and retailers with whitelabel brands, that all seek unique and defendable antimicrobial technologies and strong label claims.
In today’s consumer markets, products with antimicrobial claims become increasingly consumer relevant and this antimicrobial category is one of the highest growth categories in personal care and home care. Stricter regulation in food processing and healthcare have this segment grow rapidly.
With growing population, increased travel, increasing welfare and rapidly aging population, we all strive towards healthier lives and protection for our families against pathogens and infections.
It becomes more and more difficult for companies to competitively distinguish themselves with ‘standard label claims’ that are often less relevant to the end customer.
Both the concern and the awareness of consumers about pathogens and infections are growing. However, these antimicrobial type of claims are getting more strongly regulated.
With biocide regulations becoming more stringent and many active substances being banned or heavily restricted, the development of new and effective antimicrobial products becomes more and more challenging.
Hygienix offers its client a fast market access with proven technology, registered products and a well-validated set of product claims. The scientific evidence supporting these product claims is both strong and independently generated. The products are patent protected and enable lasting unique and consumer relevant product claims.
Our way of working is in out-licensing our patent-protected and proprietary formulations, end-products and biocide registrations. We work in a risk-shared model: Licensing out against a royalty on revenues. We have taken all risks and made the substantial investments in developing technologies, products and registering the products across Europe and USA. You can access these assets in a simple license structure with fast go-to-market timelines.
Hygienix holds a large portfolio of patents and patent applications, which are globally granted or applied for. The patenting strategy is both defensive as well as offensive and most patents are compositional patents, ensuring Hygienix to be the sole marketer of the compositions and avoiding any competition. The core technologies are well-protected against any competition or infringers and Hygienix follows an aggressive strategy against infringers and copiers, both for its own business, as well as on behalf of the license partners.
Hygienix holds a wide range of registrations under the BPR, which are available for licensing to our customers. Furthermore, Hygienix works on USA EPA registrations for several innovative surface disinfection products. Outside USA and Europe, Hygienix has several patent-protected formula’s for licensing in Asia, Middle East and Africa, complying to European standards, or local standards of disinfection.
We have developed and patented proprietary technologies that optimally combine performance, safety and sustainability. Not using Chlorine, Triclosan, Quaternary Ammonium Compounds, Phenols, Alcohols, or any other harmful ingredient and still offering the highest efficacy, proven in several studies by well known testing facilities. Consumer research from our customers clearly shows increased purchase intent with Hygienix-enabled strong antimicrobial and disinfection claims, as well as a high interest for “low tox”, safer and “low chemicals” products.
