The Company intends to launch the veterinary formulation in the United Kingdom, where C-Scrub is already an established and commercially active human-use brand, with broader international expansion to follow. The global animal health market was estimated at approximately $68.7 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $156.0 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 11.0%, according to <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=MoXmUk46pzc-3BxoeNFJXd8kVdXut_cD-UTp7cqIPpDiZvJonB7ngRfgjKHgEzmHJMxofhHAq7GHFzMBGSNgnW4-OneQeadsZFls4ZGpaXrq7aHacc4dUea7fLKt9ecHExP3G6B6IAbHaFs32fJhUwLLQHj00iB7FEXmkgQDifo=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Grand View Research</a>. Brand Extension into Animal Health C-Scrub Wash 4%, manufactured by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Cana Laboratories S.A., is a commercially available human-use antimicrobial skin cleanser. The Company is now extending the C-Scrub brand into the veterinary space following successful independent testing of C-Scrub Wash 4% according to European veterinary disinfectant standards. This extension leverages the existing product, manufacturing infrastructure, and brand equity of C-Scrub to address a distinct and rapidly growing segment within animal healthcare. European Veterinary Standards Testing C-Scrub Wash 4% successfully demonstrated bactericidal activity according to EN 1656:2019 and yeasticidal activity according to EN 1657:2024 following independent testing conducted by Quality Assurance &amp; Control Systems Ltd. (QACS), an EU-based testing laboratory accredited according to EN ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Testing was conducted in May 2026 under clean conditions (3g/L bovine albumin) at 20°C with a 10-minute contact time. Under EN 1656:2019, C-Scrub Wash 4% demonstrated bactericidal activity meeting the required ≥5 log reduction criterion against four reference organisms required under EN 1656 testing — Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus hauseri, and Enterococcus hirae — at both undiluted (80%) and 50% concentrations. Under EN 1657:2024, the product demonstrated yeasticidal activity meeting the required ≥4 log reduction criterion against Candida albicans at both undiluted (80%) and 50% concentrations. Greg Siokas, CEO of Cosmos Health, stated: “The successful testing of C-Scrub Wash 4% under EN 1656 and EN 1657 represents an important milestone as we extend a brand we have already established in the human healthcare market into the fast-growing veterinary sector. This marks Cosmos Health's first entry into animal health, and we believe that combining existing C-Scrub brand awareness, manufacturing capabilities, and distribution infrastructure positions us to pursue meaningful commercial opportunities globally.” About C-Scrub Wash 4% for Animal Healthcare C-Scrub Wash 4% is an antimicrobial wash containing the active substance Chlorhexidine Digluconate 4% w/v — a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent.
