“We have found a very good match in Farmaban – a partner with significant competence in wound care management and ambition to grow by providing value. By combining Bactiguard’s wound care portfolio with a wide range of bandages, dressings, and post-operative products, Farmaban will be offering a complete wound management solution. With Farmaban we are well positioned in wound care, which will strengthen the Bactiguard brand in Spain”, says Peter Rådqvist, Global Head of Sales.

Farmaban is a privately-owned company, founded in 1992, located in Sant Fruitós de Bages (Barcelona). The company started by producing adhesive elastic bandages and has progressively expanded into manufacturing a wide range of products in wound care management.
Last year Bactiguard entered a partnership with Libera Medica for distribution in Spain of Bactiguard’s infection prevention portfolio, with coated products for urinary tract, blood stream and respiratory tract. By distributing Bactiguard’s wound care portfolio, Farmaban will enable Bactiguard to reach the Spanish market with its full range of products for infection prevention and wound care.
About Bactiguard’s wound care portfolio
Bactiguard wound care is a biocompatible, pH-neutral and water-based product line that supports the natural wound healing and cleans the wound by reducing the microbial load. The products can be used for both acute and chronical wounds.
Bactiguard wound care contains hypochlorous acid, the same substance as the body’s immune cells use in their defence against infectious organisms. The products neither smell strongly or sting, but effectively kills most viruses, bacteria and fungi that cause infections, including the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2.* The solution has no negative effect on human cells, that means it is not irritating to the body.

The result shows that 99.9% of the virus particles were inactivated – which means, they were no longer functional and thus not contagious.
