Tec-Safe specialises in dental and veterinary decontamination solutions: focusing on innovation, performance and sustainability.
Tec-Safe started off life in the noughties focused on high spec water filtration, under its original guise of Eau Yes (pronounced OH yes!) by Simon Davies. This interest in high quality water filtration arose because of family complications around oestrogen intolerance. Oestrogen (female sex hormone) sits alongside testosterone (male sex hormone) in th human body and drives key functions (puberty, growth, procreation etc). Over the last few decades, scientists have discovered a sharp rise in hormone mimicking chemicals called ‘endocrine disruptors’ that the body reads as oestrogen. These chemicals are found in chemicals, plastics and packaging, whose use has arisen exponentially since the 50’s and is increasingly found in our environment, including water. Simon soon discovered that the most effective method for removing endocrine disruptors from water was a nanofiltration process called ‘Reverse Osmosis’. This was a fundamental reason why Simon decided to focus on developing the very best RO units for his customers. When one of UK’s biggest dental distributors agreed to start selling Tec-Safe’s RO units by the pallet, the commercial momentum moved favourably towards the dental sector.
