Polygiene introduces more powerful Odor Crunch

05/03/2026
Swedish odour & bacteria management specialist Polygiene is introducing an improved version of its odour-capture solution with OdorCrunch 2.0. Odour-capturing solutions are viewed by brands and consumers as less contentious than conventional antibacterial finishes based on silver, the company’s legacy technology. 

The new version of Odor Crunch is said to work on a broader array of fabrics, including lightweight polyester, natural fibres, and blends. It is also said to have a stronger effect on body smells and be efficient on a wider range of odour types. “It offers performance, durability and ease of use that exceeds even our own expectations,” Bobby Howell, head of sales for the Americas, told Sportstextiles. 

“This launch supports our strategy to offer high-performance solutions aligned with evolving sustainability and regulatory requirements worldwide,” commented Polygiene CEO Dr Sandrine Garnier.
