Lipidor has previously developed a spray for hand and skin disinfection, called Skin Disinfection Spray, based on its patented technology. The Swedish company has now decided to start production of this product in cooperation with Aurena Laboratories.
"The disinfectant spray is based on our patented AKVANO technology and in addition to effectively killing off viruses, bacteria and fungi through its alcohol content, it moisturises and softens the skin so that it can be used repeatedly, even on sensitive skin," said Jan Holmbäck, CSO of Lipidor.
As part of this initiative, 10,000 spray bottles will also be donated to those areas in China particularly affected by Covid-19 to address supply shortages. These will be manufactured in the coming weeks.
Aurena Laboratories will offer the product to customers in Europe as well as certain markets in Asia.
Skin Disinfection Spray will be available in 50 ml and 100 ml bottles and can also be offered to customers in customer-specific brands. Lipidor will receive licensing revenues on sales, and currently there is a great deal of interest from the market for this product category.
In tests in accordance with European standards EN 1500 and EN 14476, the disinfectant spray has been shown to provide effective killing of bacteria as well as both enveloped and non-enveloped viruses.
”We are pleased to be able to provide this effective product that hopefully can make everyday life easier for those who move in virus-exposed environments and want to reduce the risk of virus infection,” said Magnus Hedman, Chairman of the Board and Business Development Director for Aurena Laboratories.
