Cosmos Health Announces Expansion of Its C-Sept Brand with the Launch of C-Scrub Wash; Capitalizing on $29 Billion Global Antiseptic and Disinfectant Market

CHICAGO, IL / ACCESSWIRE / September 26, 2023 / Cosmos Health Inc. ("Cosmos Health" or the "Company'') (NASDAQ:COSM), a diversified, vertically integrated global healthcare group engaged in innovative R&D, owner of proprietary nutraceutical brands, manufacturer and distributor of healthcare products, and operator of a telehealth platform, announced today the expansion of its C-Sept brand with the launch of the new C-Scrub Wash 4% CHG Biocide.

Following the acquisition of Cana Laboratories ("Cana"), Cosmos Health obtained a proprietary portfolio of branded pharmaceutical, dermocosmetic, antiseptic, and food supplement products, including the C-Sept brand. The Company is now announcing the expansion of the C-Sept hand antiseptic gel line with the introduction of C-Scrub, an antiseptic soap. Both C-Sept and C-Scrub products are depicted below.

The antiseptic soap, C-Scrub Wash 4% CHG, contains chlorhexidine digluconate as its active antiseptic substance, which is approved by the World Health Organization for human use. The broad antimicrobial spectrum of C-Scrub Wash 4% CHG encompasses Gram-positive and Gram-negative microbes, fungi, and viruses, and its efficacy has been demonstrated in numerous published clinical studies. C-Scrub Wash 4% CHG significantly reduces bacterial load on the skin with long lasting sustained protection for up to 6 hours, is available in 250ml and 1000ml packages, and complements the already successful C-Sept Pro 2%, a broad-spectrum antimicrobial formulation that combines 76% Isopropyl Alcohol and 2% Chlorhexidine Digluconate as active substances. The antiseptic formulations, C-Scrub Wash 4% CHG and C-Sept Pro 2%, will be distributed in both hospital and outpatient settings, comprehensively addressing the need for antisepsis while prioritizing the safety of both patients and healthcare professionals.

According to Grand View Research, the global antiseptic and disinfectant market was valued at USD 29.15 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.49% from 2023 to 2030. The increased prevalence of diseases such as typhoid, cholera, hepatitis A, food poisoning, and dengue, primarily due to inadequate home cleanliness, is a significant factor anticipated to drive the growth of the antiseptics and disinfectants market. Furthermore, the rising number of surgeries and endoscopies worldwide is another key factor expected to propel the market growth during the forecast period.

Greg Siokas, Chief Executive Officer of Cosmos Health, stated, "We are excited to further enhance and grow our family of proprietary brands with the launch of the C-Scrub Wash, building on the success of C-Sept. Given our ever-expanding distribution network and the significant ramping up of our manufacturing capabilities, we anticipate significant growth for our brands on a global scale, which will help boost revenues and profitability."
