About Prontomed GmbH
Prontomed GmbH, based in Hiddenhausen in East Westphalia-Lippe, has been developing, manufacturing and distributing medical, cosmetic and hygiene products for the hospital, practice, beauty and homecare sectors since 1998. The company specialises in two technologies: polyhexanide (PHMB) technology based on polyhexanide with betaine, and electrochemical activation (ECA), in which a diluted mineral salt solution (brine) is processed in specially designed electrolysis cells into solutions containing hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite. On this basis, aqueous solutions, hydrogels and spray gels with a mineral gelling agent are produced for applications in human medicine (e.g. wound care, skin care), veterinary medicine and cosmetics. In addition to its own brands such as Prontomed, Prontoman and Prontolind, the company offers private-label manufacturing and distributes its products via specialist retailers and its own online shop.
