Care Plus
Care Plus is a health and travel brand originating in the Netherlands, founded in 1992 by Tropenzorg BV. It specializes in insect protection products (such as DEET repellents and mosquito nets), soothing gels, and first aid supplies for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts.
Main Products and Solutions
- Insect Repellent: This is their leading category in Europe. It includes highly effective repellents with varying concentrations of DEET (up to 50%) for tropical areas, DEET-free alternatives for sensitive skin or children, and insecticide-treated mosquito nets for overnight stays in high-risk areas.
- First Aid: First aid kits tailored to different types of travel, from basic mountain first aid kits to sterile kits with syringes and needles for countries with limited healthcare infrastructure.
- Hygiene: Compact, waterless products such as hand sanitizers, wipes, and biodegradable soap sheets, ideal for trekking.
- Sun Protection: Specific creams and sunscreens tested to withstand extreme conditions and high-sweat activities.
Social Commitment and Sustainability:
Through its parent company, Travel Health Group, Care Plus dedicates a portion of its resources to distributing mosquito nets and providing health education in vulnerable, remote communities, collaborating directly with local organizations in countries like Uganda to mitigate the impact of vector-borne diseases.
