About PuriCore
PuriCore is an international company focused on developing and commercialising safe and effective products to protect against the spread of infectious pathogens based on its proprietary hypochlorous acid platform technology. Its products are currently used in two broad market segments: Supermarket Retail and Health Sciences. PuriCore's products do not cause harm to human or animal life or to the environment.
In the Supermarket Retail segment, PuriCore offers products to US retailers for use in their fresh produce departments to improve food safety and quality, to extend shelf life and to decrease food wastage. Our product is an eco-friendly, food-safe sanitising solution at a neutral PH that is used to protect produce from cross contamination and improve freshness. Our Sterilox Fresh Systems are capital equipment that are installed at customer locations and allow for generation of solution as needed at the store. ProduceFresh is our concentrate bottled version providing the same levels of stability, freshness and quality in a convenient consumable package. Additionally, the Company's FloraFresh products, also sold as a concentrate in bottled form, protect against fungal growth and extend the life of cut flowers, with an initial focus on supermarket floral departments.
In Health Sciences, PuriCore's Wound Care business provides products that are used to treat chronic and acute wounds, including diabetic ulcers and burns in humans. A range of products have also been developed to manage wounds in companion and farm animals. The Company's Dermatology business is currently focused on treatments for atopic dermatitis. PuriCore is headquartered in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
