PORTSMOUTH, NH — PureSoft Solutions, a subsidiary of First Scientific, Inc., announced a distribution agreement with VWR Scientific Products, one of the world’s largest distributors of laboratory and cleanroom products.

Following a January product launch at their National Sales Meeting, VWR Scientific Products has begun distributing PureCleanse’s antimicrobial handwash, antimicrobial First-Aid antiseptic spray, antimicrobial hand towelettes and an antimicrobial foaming instant hand sanitizer, as well as the hard surface disinfectant and PureBathe, an all-purpose hand/body wash and shampoo.

The products are targeted to pharmaceutical, cleanroom, industrial and university laboratories throughout the United States.

“The PureSoft product offering gives VWR Scientific Products a unique opportunity to provide the laboratory market with best-in-class antimicrobial skin-care, disinfecting and all-purpose cleansing products at a great price/performance combination,” said David Wilich, president of PureSoft Solutions and executive vice president of sales for PureSoft and First Scientific. “In particular, the PureCleanse with MicrobNZ range of products offers unparalleled antimicrobial protection while being extremely kind to the hands. In addition, PureBathe and our hard surface disinfectant provide the performance and value required for high-volume usage.”

MicrobNZ is highly efficacious, long lasting with a high degree of persistence, and fast-acting against a broad spectrum of pathogens, including Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and drug resistant bacteria. The MicrobNZ formulation, which surpasses Food and Drug Administration (FDA) protocols required for classification as a Health Care Personnel Handwash and as a First-Aid Antiseptic (21 CFR 333), has also been proven to significantly moisturize and condition skin.
