About us

Byotrol provides specialist biosecurity and infection control solutions, designed to protect people and animals from disease. Our unique products are grounded in excellent science; developed by our team of hygiene experts, and supported by robust data that our customers trust. We promote safe, effective and sustainable biosecurity and infection control measures, which improve the health of people, animals and the environment. Byotrol’s first antimicrobial technology was invented and patented in the 1990s, with the goal of creating an antimicrobial coating to prevent mould in a bakery. That first product proved to be highly effective, fast-acting, and broad-spectrum, but in addition had unique long-lasting germ-kill properties, continuing to work long after it had dried. The original Byotrol technology has been used in millions of businesses and homes around the world, helping to prevent infection in hospitals, controlling Listeria in food factories, and cleaning and protecting our homes and families from harmful pathogens. Byotrol's portfolio of technologies and products has grown extensively under our own brands and with carefully selected partners in a variety of applications and markets. Byotrol’s products are now sold and used throughout Europe, North America, South Africa, and Asia. We have invested heavily in scientific excellence, with our team of scientists, product development, and regulatory specialists now operating out of outstanding laboratories in the North-West of England, at Thornton Science Park, University of Chester campus. Byotrol’s ongoing innovation programme ensures we remain at the forefront of the industry, with a focussed pipeline of research and development to discover new and disruptive biocidal technologies, as well as a number of joint development agreements in partnership with key customers.

  • Animal welfare biosecurity expert Lizzie Dodgson BaHons RVN, has been on the road with Davina Osborne this week, delivering a practical training session for our welfare partners at the RSPCA. Biosecurity plays a crucial role in welfare environments, ensuring the health and safety of both animals and staff. Implementing effective biosecurity protocols can be a challenge in larger organisations, but training your staff effectively can significantly lower the risk of outbreaks of infectious diseases and create a safer working environment for everyone. Are you interested in tailored biosecurity training for your team? Contact us today to learn how we can support your facility.

  • Important Health & Safety Training! At Byotrol, we are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all our customers and end-users of our products. Today's Bitesize Training highlights the importance of correct labelling in the safe and effective use of chemical products, particularly detergents and disinfectants. Labelling bottles of chemicals correctly is the first line of defence for protecting your teams, and the risks of end-users using drink containers or empty bottles for other chemical products are massive. If you don't provide appropriately labelled containers for your team to decant diluted disinfectants into, this is a likely outcome. Let's promote a culture of safety and responsibility - share this post with your team and spread the word on the importance of storing diluted disinfectants in properly labelled containers. There's a more in-depth explanation of the risks and best practice support in our blog post, the link is in the comments. #ChemicalSafety #WorkplaceSafety #EnvironmentalHealth #AtByotrolWeCare #ByotrolBitesize #BestPractice
