Since the pandemic, hand sanitizers have become as essential as keys, finding their way into pockets, handbags and airport security trays alike. Sure, they kill germs, but they don’t discriminate. The good bacteria gets wiped out too. Enter byebyebad. Their hand sanitizers use Totarol™, a naturally antibacterial ingredient sustainably sourced from New Zealand's ancient Totara tree. They tackle the bad guys, while leaving the good bacteria to do their thing.


BRAND LINE
We’re fighting the bad guys you shake hands with every day.
Concept I: Doing Things
Our hands are constantly up to something. From grabbing every wine bottle in the supermarket to tapping PIN pads and lift buttons, they're constantly collecting unwanted passengers. Pretty gross when you think about how many fingers got there before your PIN code did. That's where byebyebad comes in. We're fighting the bad guys you shake hands with every day. The good ones can stay.
Introducing Totarol™. 100 million years of antibacterial know-how, sustainably sourced from New Zealand's oldest tree. P.S. Trees are for hugging. None were harmed in the process, obviously.
