The technology
Everyone loves a nice scent. Not only is it pleasing, it can instantly evoke a memory of a place, a favorite thing, or even a loved one. Polygiene ScentMaster™ is an additive technology for polymers that can build up an instant and powerful olfactory response in consumers to a product simply by adding a tailor-made scent to items. This gives manufacturers and retailers a unique and very effective marketing point.

Benefits of Polygiene Scentmaster
Polygiene ScentMaster is a range of concentrated fragrances, flavor additives, and deodorizing technology that can be added to a wide range of polymers and applied to a variety of products and scenarios. From perfumed packaging that drives consumer loyalty to fragranced garbage bags that cut down on odors, we can create virtually any smell for an almost endless range of applications.
It is highly concentrated and can be added in amounts of as little as 1% to provide effective and enticing fragrance additions to products.
Polygiene ScentMaster can make even the most pungent places much more fragrant.
Scent can be a powerful way to influence a purchase decision, generating sales and building brand loyalty.
With virtually any smell capable of being synthesized, Polygiene ScentMaster is incredibly versatile.
The science
Embedding enticing fragrances into your products might seem obvious, whether it’s mouthguards, hair bobbles, chew toys, or pet bowls. But the applications for Polygiene ScentMaster are only limited by your imagination. Smells can be used for aversion as well as attraction. For example, Polygiene ScentMaster is used as an additive in forestry applications to drive deer away from saplings with the scent of lion’s urine.
ScentMaster can be used for a wide range of applications, including:
No. It’s added to the polymer in pellet form during the forming process, so it’s integrated into the polymer.

Polygiene ScentMaster masterbatches contain a concentrated organic oil fragrance. They are delivered as translucent pellets measuring around 2-3mm and are insoluble in water. The scent impregnation is stable up to temperatures of about 200°C/392°F, well within the parameters of most polymer manufacturing processes.
The scented masterbatch is mixed into the polymer at rates of up to 5% to provide a durable and lasting scent release. Once a product has been sealed, the scent is stabilized.
Once opened, the scent will last for up to six weeks before dissipating. Masterbatches have a shelf life of up to six months once opened.
As well as a range of pre-manufactured scents, ScentMaster can also produce custom-made scents for your business. Our chemists have created a highly refined spectrum of aromas that combat odors by tricking the brain into only recognizing a more pleasing scent.
So, for example, kitchen waste can be masked by a lemon or grapefruit scent, while jasmine works particularly well with feminine hygiene products. We can even create repellents, such as lion urine-scented polymer to repel deer.
Polygiene ScentMaster™ can be impregnated with deodorizing technology. This doesn’t eliminate foul odors but instead tricks the human olfactory system to only identify pleasant smells rather than offensive odors.
