Change of distribution for Sanitized

03/07/2025
Swiss chemicals company Sanitized has named Rudolf Holding, a supplier of chemicals for the textile industry based in Germany, its new distribution partner beginning on February 1st, 2026. At that date, Rudolf will be the exclusive distributor of Sanitized hygiene and odour-control additives for textiles worldwide. The two family-owned companies said they decided to join forces at a time of “increasing market complexity, evolving customer requirements, trade barriers, and structural overcapacity”. 

In the interim before the agreement comes into effect, and starting this September, current distributers of Sanitized products and Rudolf will be working together to “ensure continuity of supply and support to customers”. 

Sanitized was founded in 1935 by the Lüthi family and is run by the fourth generation. Rudolf operates 18 production sites and has 50 sales offices worldwide.
