KITCHENER, May 28, 2024 — Biomiq Inc.—a Canadian medical device company committed to challenging the status quo with its innovative products inspired by biomimicry—announces a pivotal transition that sees the company assuming the wound care contracts of both HealthPro (#06193) and Mohawk Medbuy/Plexxus (#CW16063/#C1825) previously held by Sterasure Inc.

"This strategic action is a milestone for Biomiq as it expands the availability of our flagship product, BIHOCL™ PureCleanse™,” says Robert Fuller, the company’s Managing Director. “This transition not only strengthens Biomiq's market position but also allows us to better serve the needs of Canadian health care institutions, their clinicians, and their patients."

BIHOCL™ PureCleanse™, Biomiq’s line of pure hypochlorous acid (HOCl) cleansers, is engineered for the treatment of wounds, skin, and burns, and is proudly designed and manufactured in Canada.

“The product is gaining significant traction as a replacement for standard saline due to its similar safety profile while offering the efficacy of HOCL—a potent antimicrobial,” Fuller continues. “The BIHOCL™ PureCleanse™ solution is non-cytotoxic, free of sodium hypochlorite, and sets a new standard in wound care with its unique combination of safety and efficacy not found in traditional antiseptics or cleansers.”

Currently used across Canada by clinicians and surgeons in both acute and community care settings, BIHOCL™ PureCleanse™ embodies Biomiq's commitment to elevating patient care standards and access to safe, effective wound care products nationwide.

Sterasure Inc., a medical device manufacturer based in Kitchener, Ontario, will continue to produce Biomiq's hypochlorous acid devices, reinforcing Biomiq's dedication to industry-leading collaborations and offering Canada’s health care system a much needed reliable supply chain advantage.

Beyond wound care, Biomiq's impact on advancing patient care is broad and diverse. The company offers several cutting-edge healthcare solutions including safe, antimicrobial eye hygiene solutions to over 400 Canadian eye care clinics with its BIHOCL O.D. product line, and UV-C light-based high-level disinfection (HLD) devices with its UV Smart product line.

Bill Roberts, President and Co-Founder of Biomiq, remarks, “We’re proud of this transition as an exciting step towards enhancing access and use of BIHOCL™ PureCleanse™ across Canada. As Biomiq expands its reach and continues to invest in bringing new technologies to market, we remain steadfast in our mission to elevate patient care and help create a future where every Canadian has access to—and an opportunity to be treated with—BIHOCL™ PureCleanse™ hypochlorous solutions”.
