WOODSTOCK, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNOA), a global healthcare leader developing and producing patented Microcyn� technology-based stabilized hypochlorous acid (HOCl) products for a wide range of applications, including wound, eye, oral and nasal care, disinfectant use and dermatological conditions, today announced that it has added Salus Medical as an additional distribution partner in the United States for dental care and expanded its oral and dental care lines to China via a partnership deal with Anlicare International.

Sonoma entered into a non-exclusive agreement with Salus Medical to distribute Endocyn® root canal irrigant through their existing dental channels. In addition, Salus Medical will expand on their cutting-edge dermatology offerings with Sonoma’s Microcyn® RX and Regenacyn® Plus products and have non-exclusive distribution rights for Microcyn® wound care products.

Additionally, on January 18, 2022, Sonoma and Anlicare agreed to cooperate to complete the regulatory work necessary to obtain licenses in China to distribute Sonoma’s Microcyn® technology-based dental and oral products. Anlicare will bear the regulatory costs and in return, Sonoma agreed to grant Anlicare exclusive rights for selling and distributing oral and dental care products in China.

“We see the strength of Sonoma’s Microcyn technology in the prevention of infection and reduction of bacteria and microorganisms and believe Sonoma’s Microcyn technology will be beneficial for dentistry and general oral care for both professional and consumer use,” commented Sherwin Hu, CEO at Anlicare International.

“We are pleased to add Salus Medical and Anlicare to our growing network of distributors for our oral and dental products, and we continue to seek distribution partners for our proprietary Microcyn technology that is truly superior in terms of antimicrobial impact, shelf stability and safety,” said Bruce Thornton, COO of Sonoma Pharmaceuticals.
