WHY CHOOSE CETRIGEN?

• Contains an antiseptic to protect wounds from infection

  CETRIGEN contains cetrimide, a well known antiseptic compound with antibacterial properties that inhibits the growth of bacteria in the wound and helps to prevent re-infection. Infection is a risk to any wound, no matter how minor, and if it becomes established in a wound it can delay the healing process and lead to more severe or additional problems like scarring and proud flesh.

• Contains a powerful insect repellent

  DEET contained in CETRIGEN is regarded as one of the most effective insect repelling compounds available. DEET acts by creating a shield of repellent vapour as it evaporates. This shield confuses insects so they can’t locate the animal to land on.

• Registered for use on all animals

  CETRIGEN’s broad species application means that it is a versatile treatment option for all animals. This means there is no need to keep multiple products on hand to treat different animals in multiple species households. CETRIGEN can be safely used on all domestic pets and farm animals.

• Contains a purple dye

  CETRIGEN is sometimes known as purple spray due to the unique bright purple colouring of the product. A purple dye is included in the formulation so that the area treated can be easily identified to ensure full coverage. The dye will remain intact on the wound under most conditions so that treated areas can be quickly identified each day.

• Convenient presentation

  CETRIGEN is available in a 100 g aerosol and a 500 mL trigger spray. Two practical presentations to suit a wide variety of situations and uses. The trigger spray applicator is noiseless and is also adjustable to provide various spray patterns to enable adequate coverage of the area being treated. The aerosol presentation comes in a conveniently sized robust can.
