The staff and personnel of
Environmental Services has for many years been involved with the
marketing of organic sanitisers. The company and its associates
started importing into Australia organic sanitisers in 1997.
Up until 2005 a number of different manufacturers had supplied
product, but it became obvious that while the Australian and world
market wanted to embrace organic antimicrobial products the cost was
limiting market acceptance.
In an attempt to reduce the cost of the product to the end customer
the company embarked on its own product development programme in 2005.
The company engaged one of Australia’s leading chemists and experts in
biocides to undertake the development of a new 100% organic sanitiser/biocide.
Aussan is the result of 3 years of research and development
work which included the exhaustive testing of a range of organic acids
and bioflavanoid combinations and the careful selection of the final
ingredients to obtain the right balance between antimicrobial activity
and the product cost.
The company has built an initial production plant that has the capacity
of 2,000 litres per day. As volumes increase the plant can be quickly
expanded. |

In addition to a need for cost reduction a series of controversies
concerning some organic products such as Grape Fruit Extract also
influenced the company to develop its own product where it could
control all ingredient inputs.
The company and its associates in addition to marketing organic
sanitisers in Australia, Asia and North America between 1997 and 2005
developed and received patent approval for an organic anti fungal
spray/nutrient synergist , plant invigorator or agriculture crops. The
product Croplife is based on Aussan with additional anti fungal/mould
ingredients.
The company is based in Melbourne Australia and has distributors in
several countries.
