CFCM Microban Ultra 400Following the initial acquisition of Thomson Research Associates, Microban International now plans to harmonize the two organizations. It recently announced that it is bringing together its Microban and Ultra-Fresh brands and technologies under a single umbrella. By consolidating its services and combining over 100 years of collective industry experience, Microban International says it can better serve its partners worldwide.

The Microban brand provides antimicrobial and odour-control solutions, delivering Protection That Lives On and redefining surface cleanliness. In parallel, the organization’s newly emergent ingredient brand – Ultra-Fresh – delivers improved freshness for a broad spectrum of surfaces. This move will allow the company to harness the Microban brand alongside its Ultra-Fresh, offering its antimicrobial product portfolio in the industry. 

Microban will continue to develop solutions for both product lines and further extend its turnkey services and partner support – including technical, regulatory, and legal guidance. It has an ever-growing partner base in 172 countries, advanced facilities worldwide, and  Microban laboratories and offices in Canada, Shanghai and Taiwan.

Michael Ruby, Vice President of Global Business at Microban International, commented: “Microban is proud to take this step, not only for the company but for its partners. Pushing the boundaries of innovation and building long-standing, meaningful business relationships has always been at the heart of our organization. This step will allow us to foster, nurture and develop new and existing connections. This is an opportunity for us to move forward, to continue to invest in technologies that benefit end-users, creating the broadest product portfolio in the industry while extending the reach of our valuable turnkey services for all of our partners.” 

Joe Lyons, President of Microban International, commented: “This is an important moment for the industry, as we consolidate the power of the trusted Microban and Ultra-Fresh brands under one company – Microban International. At Microban International, our brands are truly our strength, and with this move, we will continue to build our brand presence in the consumer, building, textiles, commercial and healthcare sectors.”
