We’ve been dealing with the sale of raw materials used in the production of cleaning and sanitizing products for many years.
We operate in a wide range of sectors from domestic to industrial cleaning, on through to the disinfection of medical equipment and their environments, from the disinfection of food contact surfaces, to sanitizing and cleaning systems, as well as both wastewater and swimming pool water treatment.
The Covid-19 pandemic has required a massive and global intervention to contain its spread and has increased the need to disinfect areas and increase personal hygiene levels.
Hand-washing sanitizing gels are currently witnessing enormous demand in all markets, for which we at Garzanti offer rheology modifiers such as Carbomer.
We have also reiterated, in the strongest means, our support to chemical companies sector with the offer of products with antimicrobial cleaning actions.
The disinfectant products we offer often enter the PMC formulations approved by the Italian Ministry of Health and are listed as Biocidal product-types 1 to 5 according to EU regulation.

Oxone
Oxone® (potassium monopersulfate), strong oxidant often used as a substitute for chlorine. Very stable up to pH7. Unlike chlorine, it does not cause irritation and does not generate chloramines, as well as being very effective in the elimination of bad odours.
It has Biocidal properties in these areas:
- Disinfectants and algaecides not intended for direct application to humans or animals (PT2)
- Disinfectants for veterinary hygiene (PT3)
- Disinfectants for food and feed areas (PT4)
- Disinfectants for drinking water (PT5)
Oxone® can therefore be used in the following areas:
- Room sanitization
- Swimming pool water treatment
- Waste water treatment
- Dental prosthesis cleaning
- Chemical synthesis, also for the preparation of API’s (e.g. Omeprazole, Diltiazem, Rosuvastatin)
- Bleaching and rendering
