Mother & Child care products’ market on an upswingand growing at a CAGR of 15-20 per cent year-on-year.The market size for baby products in India is about Rs15-25 billion, out of which, the estimated onlinemarket for baby product hovers around Rs 100-120crore and experts opine that it tends to double every 6to 8 months.

With India being home to about 50 million babies in the0-2 years age group and 304.8 million children in the0-12 years age group, the country offers immenseopportunities in this segment.India has the biggest number of world’s populationunder the age group of 35 years, which mean manybabies are on their way.KPMG estimates the size of the kids' wear market inIndia at Rs 28,000-30,000 crore, and expects it toreach Rs 43,000 crore by 2016 and Rs 72,000 crore by2021.

Currently the middle class is growing very rapidly.

The spending power of the people is increasing.

The education in India in terms of number isincreasing. Today, more and more people are educatedcompared to 20 years back. That is what makes theconsumer advance and quality conscious.

But at the same time there has been subsequent backwave in Mother and children care clothing's like Gini &Jony shelved its IPO or Lilliput shutting downinternational operations. Etc

The reason for their fall out was these companiescould not build brand recall, especially as theirproducts did not stand apart from the offerings in thelarger unorganised market.

This is where we come in picture. At the moment,there is no other brand available in the market thatoffers anti-microbial baby and mother care clothing's.

Precaution is better than cure.

Skin is most sensitive part of child and Mom.Clothesprotect skin only against wear.

Anti-bacterial treated clothes will have protect duallyi.e. against wear and also against germs.

This is necessary for Mom’s during and afterpregnancy stage as their bodies are weak and mostviable for attack of germs.

Same is for babies i.e new babies are verysusceptible to germs since their immune systemshaven't had time to develop.

Also the new born babies discharge urine/ fecal innight. It might be possible that there is delay inchanging clothes leading to transfer of germs toclothes and body.

Market crowded with lot of foreign and local brands.Functional finish helps to create top of the mind awarenessabout the brand and premium positioning among thecompetitor brands.Functional finish helps the brand to stand out in terms ofperformance with specific USP.Gives the much needed product differentiation from local market costeffective structure.

Advancements in antimicrobial technology such as ZYCROBIALis providing clothing brands to offer different ranges ofantimicrobial clothes to protect Mom & Child.

Most new moms and dads are paranoid about germs asnew babies are very susceptible to germs since theirimmune systems are still to develop.During washing : Since family members' clothes --

especially underwear -- may contain contaminants thatcould wind up on your baby's sensitive skin.New clothing that will have contact with infant's skin

should be antimicrobial as it may have been touched bymany people prior to purchase.Babies crawling will have very high bacteria

concentration bottoms and gloves.Viral and bacterial infections are common and, as a

new mum, you may find yourself getting sick with one.Besides being unwell, you now have the added worry ofprotecting your baby from your infection. Read on tofind some useful ways to protect your baby.

Clothes of children's are exposed to germs mostwhether on playground or in toilets etc.

The immune system is yet developing.Hence antimicrobial clothes would provide an

additional security against germs to children.

As children are continuously on the move they

sweat a lot hence are highly prone to germsattack. Antimicrobial clothes would surely keepthem odor and germs free all day.

Types of socks Why antimicrobial finish required

Baby clothes Babies are normally exposed to lot of germs during their daily routineThe conditions fungi / germs like best are warm, moist and airlessareas of skin, such as between the toes. Zycrobial preventsformation of germs in key areas and help to keep Mom and child freefrom germs.

Women's

clothes

The body of women is more sensitive than Men and require a special

care. Other than sweat during every day chores where water is achief component , it is necessary to protect their body from germs.Anti microbial treated socks will a shield against all the possibleinfections.

Baby socks andgloves

Babies are not having fully developed immune system an this leadsthem to be more prone to attack from Microbes . They place footand hand every where w/o much thinking, so they are exposed to alot of microbes. In Winter season when the climate is dry and socksare primary components of baby wear , the dry skin is more prone tomicrobial attack, where anti microbial socks offer best protection

Kid’s clothes. Kids play w/o much thinking, whether it is muddy ground or pool of water

on road. To protect them from microbes it is most essential to treat it withantimicrobial treatment.

* Non-leaching type of antimicrobials stay affixed to the textile and at

molecular level electrocutes and physically pierces the microorganism(lipoproteins anionic membrane cover).

Silane Quat

Zydex®



TRICLOSAN

• Inhibits growth by chemical action to penetrate & disrupt cell wallsindiscriminately in the environment. This leads to leakage of metabolitesand disable cell function including reproduction .

ANTIMICROBIAL:

LEACHING TYPE

• Used in personal care products (Dettol), soap, toothpaste and deodorants.

• Used for over 25 Years.• Lasts only one to two washes. Needs repetitive applications.

• High recurring cost per wash cycle.• Environmental problems – Generate very toxic Dioxin

Zydex®



PHMB - BIGUANIDE

• Binds microorganism to their cell membranes

and disrupts the lipopolysaccharides

structures resulting in cell breakdown .

Zydex®

ANTIMICROBIAL: LEACHING TYPE

• Used in swimming pools, cosmetics, contact lens solutions and naturaltextiles. Less effective on Gram Positive Bacteria.

• Possible Carcinogen.

NANO SILVER COMPOUNDS• Nano silver compounds are popular and widely used.

• Metal ions inhibits metabolism of the active enzyme centers.

• Used in food handling materials, medical devices, wound care products,industrial materials, textiles etc.

• Needs to be incorporated during fabric making and expensive.



ANTIMICROBIAL : NON LEACHING TYPE

SILANE QUAT• Non-leachable & non-consumable (99.5%)

• Absorbs & forms a polymer network in fiber matrix.

• Bacterial cell membrane get ruptured when microbes come in contact

with the treated surface.

• Quaternary ammonium structure provides antimicrobial activities effective

on almost all microbes and fungi.

• Used in natural & synthetic fibers, internal hospital walls and garments.

WORKING MECHANISM OF ZYCROBIAL

When a microbe comes in contact with the treated surface it is

electrocuted due to the positively charged nitrogen of Zycrobial

and the cell cover is physically ruptured by a knife-like action.

Zycrobial treated fabric also eliminates the bad odor and maintains thefreshness of the substrate for a long span of time.

* Zycrobial, being based on non-leaching chemistry, drastically reduces thebacterial growth and ensures effective antimicrobial & antiodour effecton the textile substrates even after several washes and increases the lifespan of textile substrates.

* Being a solvent free product, it is non-hazardous and eco friendly innature which eliminates the side effects on user & environment.

* It is also eco-friendly compared to Nano-silver based technology.*

Though research is inconclusive, scientists have found evidence thatNano silver, once in the environment — most commonly in wastewatereffluent — can potentially bio accumulate in organisms such asearthworms, insects and fish. Studies also suggest that nanoparticles insoil can harm plants.

*

* Zycrobial treated clothes would prevent the filthy smellon usage of clothes by retarding the growth of microbe.

* Also the greater exposure to hot and humid climaticconditons in India which tend to cause higher

‘perspiration wetness’ because of poor moisturetransport properties..

* Moreover, the current issues of skin disorders/infectionsdue to lack of hygiene has lead to huge opportunitiesfor anti-microbial and anti-odour finishing agents suchas ZYCROBIAL.
