HOW WE WORK
We use functional chemistry to add value to our brand partners and for their end users. This value is both direct and indirect. There are direct benefits in terms of increased hygiene, odor reduction, enhanced fragrance, or anti-counterfeit protection. But just as powerfully – if not more so – are the indirect benefits of making a smaller CO2 footprint and creating less waste in the world.
OUR MODEL
It’s not enough to rely on our technology to tell its own story. Our success can be attributed not just to our innovative technologies and our brand, but also to our commercial commitment to our partners. We support every partner through Innovation, Trust, Know-how, Quality and Service, creating value for our customers, and turn creating value for ourselves.
There are three critical pillars to our partner support – Technical, Marketing and Sales. We call this our Trinity Business Model.
We get inside your business to help identify opportunities, define project plans and coordinate the application process. From there we support you with co-branding and communication so you can ace your sustainability messaging. We’ll constantly work with you to improve the relationship and grow your business.
Our professional team of marketers knows how to build awareness, desire and action. We’ll help you leverage the Polygiene brand to the max, providing hang tags and sew-in labels to spread the good news that our technologies bring. They’re with you to assist with PR, training, POS materials, events, digital campaigns and so much more. Whatever it takes to educate and inform end consumers about the benefits you’re adding to your products, we’re in it to deliver.
Our team of technical experts is there to make sure proper and effective treatment is carried out, ensuring total compliance with quality and environmental requirements and advising you on regulations and legislation in the markets in which you operate. We’ll partner with you on certification programs, testing and hands-on support from start to long-term development and innovation. We’re in it for the long haul.
OUR STRATEGY
As the leading ingredient brand for Freshness and Protection, we have a clear roadmap towards 2026 that is focused on growth, with a topline target of SEK 1 billion within five years. As sustainability becomes an increasingly hot topic, we will be more relevant than ever.
By building long-term, trust-based relationships throughout the value chain, and defining a clear category model with marketing support based on a pull and push strategy, we will support our manufacturing and brand partners in growing their businesses.
We will continue to be the partner of choice with our existing clients and continually assess opportunities to extend our product offering where relevant. At the same time, we will cross sell existing products between the Freshness and Protection business areas.
There are significant opportunities in opening up new areas of use for our technologies where we have not yet gained sufficient market share. By ensuring that we have expert Business Development Managers by categories, we will open new doors as a trusted, expert supplier.
As a growth and innovation company, we are always on the lookout for gaps in the market where we can add value to existing and potential partners. We want to understand where the market and regulations are going, so we’re in tune with our brand partners innovation plans with technologies that work.
After a successful acquisition of Addmaster UK in 2021, we have laid the foundation to support the organic growth of the business by acquiring additional companies under the Freshness and Protection categories. With a clearly defined vision, mission and a trusted reputation, we aspire to become the leading global ingredient brand across hard and soft surfaces.
We build long-lasting partnerships that help you meet your sustainability goals by turning your products from fast consumables to durables. With Polygiene technologies in your products, you’ll be unstoppable.

Certifications
Safety and sustainability are our top priority. That’s why our technologies always get the hardest-to-achieve certifications.
Our global technical team is always on hand to support mills, processors, compounders and material partners both at the start-up and during the production stages. This is to ensure treatments are carried out in the correct manner and guarantee that the Polygiene values are met on behalf of our partners. The technical team forms an integral part of the global framework working with the Polygiene commercial and marketing teams and supporting our partners.
When Polygiene partners decide to work with us, we ensure the technologies work as they should – and not just in terms of functionality. We take care to use just the right amount of treatment, ensure that we fit our partner’s production method, and aim to apply the technology at the same time as other steps in the production process – all to keep water and energy usage to a minimum.
Generally a very low dosage of Polygiene’s technologies is needed, most often added during the production process.
