Addmaster and Polygiene

In January 2021, Addmaster joined the Polygiene Group. The acquisition created one of the most comprehensive offerings in the world for built-in antimicrobial and freshness technologies.

In 2024, Addmaster returned to operating under its own name and website, strengthening its identity while remaining firmly integrated within Polygiene. This strategic move means customers get the best of both worlds: Addmaster’s specialism in polymer additives and Polygiene’s global brand strength.

What This Means for Our Customers

Being part of the Polygiene Group enables Addmaster to deliver even greater value:

  • Broader technology portfolio – from hard surface antimicrobials to textile freshness treatments.
  • Stronger scientific backing – with combined R&D resources and regulatory expertise.
  • Global reach – Polygiene’s international network extends Addmaster’s support to partners worldwide.
  • Sustainability focus – aligned with Polygiene’s mission to reduce waste and extend product life.

Whether you need antimicrobial protection for plastics, coatings, paper, or textiles, or long-lasting freshness for garments and home fabrics, the Polygiene Group has the solution.
