PURE is excited to announce the signing of a strategic distribution agreement with Hydrite, a top-tier provider of complete solutions for food processing and other markets. This agreement aims to enhance the availability of PURE’s innovative products across various markets, providing customers with greater access to effective antibacterial solutions.
Tim Steffensmeier, Vice President of Sales at PURE, said, “Enlarging our partnership with Hydrite is an important step for PURE. Their established distribution network and industry experience will help us expand the reach of our SDC technology, meeting the growing need for safer and effective antimicrobial solutions.”
Hydrite, known for its commitment to quality and customer service, shares this renewed partnership’s excitement. Mitch Fay, Technical Director at Hydrite, remarked, “We are thrilled to grow our eight-year relationship with PURE Bioscience under this new agreement. Their state-of-the-art SDC technology complements our portfolio perfectly, allowing us to provide our customers with effective antimicrobial solutions.”
How SDC Works
SDC kills microorganisms by two modes of action: 1) the silver ion deactivates structural and metabolic membrane proteins, leading to microbial death; 2) the microbes view SDC as a food source, allowing the silver ion to enter the microbe. Once inside the organism, the silver ion denatures the DNA, which halts the microbe’s ability to replicate and leads to its death. This dual action makes SDC highly and quickly effective against a broad spectrum of microbes. Traditional silver-based disinfectants have short shelf lives – from hours to days. SDC is a stabilized silver ion complex with a shelf life of several years. The unique bond between the silver ions in SDC allows them to remain in solution while making them more bio-available for antimicrobial action.
“This partnership underscores both companies’ commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. The collaboration is expected to strengthen PURE’s market position and further enhance Hydrite’s offerings,” added Jeff Kitchell, Vice President of Operations at PURE.
