\n STOCKHOLM<\/span>, April 6, 2021<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — The leading global hygiene and health company Essity is acquiring the distribution rights to the wound care technology Sorbact\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0in Australia<\/span> and New Zealand<\/span> from the Australian company Bayport Brands. In 2020, sales of Sorbact\u00ae<\/sup> in the region amounted to AUD 1.7m<\/span> (approximately SEK 11m<\/span>).\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

“This acquisition underlines our ambition to accelerate growth in advanced wound care, where we showed good organic sales growth during the second half of 2020. It is also a good fit for our strategy\u00a0to establish a stronger presence in Australia<\/span> and New Zealand<\/span>, where we – in addition to our successful Medical Solutions operations – are also in the final phase of the acquisition of Asaleo Care,” says Magnus Groth<\/span>, President and CEO of Essity.<\/p>\n

Sorbact\u00ae<\/sup> is a clinically established innovation for advanced wound care, which is manufactured and marketed by Abigo Medical. Essity acquired 75% of Abigo Medical in February 2020.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sorbact\u00ae <\/sup>is used in wound care products to prevent and treat infections. It does this using a natural mode of action that binds bacteria and fungi. Sorbact\u00ae<\/sup> does not contain antiseptics or other toxic substances, which is positive for both the patient and the environment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
