is that some of the most effective, safe and sustainable technologies already exist in nature and that the role of a biotech partner is to harness and refine them rather than replace them with synthetic imitations. That thinking underpins eco-benign technology: proven performance that does not treat efficacy and safety as a trade-off.


The company's latest product for the professional cleaning sector, Evogen ONE, applies this approach to one of FM's most persistent challenges: product proliferation.


Evogen ONE is an ultra-concentrated, bio-based cleaner and odour eliminator built around specialised Bacillus cultures and plant-derived biomolecules, formulated to replace multiple conventional cleaning and deodorising products rather than sit alongside them.


Its action is multi-targeted, combining rapid odour encapsulation with the ongoing biodegradation of the organic matter that causes odour in the first place. Because it works through several mechanisms rather than a single synthetic pathway, the living microbial element continues breaking down residual soiling after the initial application, reducing the need for repeat treatment rather than simply masking a smell until the next clean. That dual-action approach is designed to hold up in the environments FM teams find hardest to keep on top of: washrooms, waste and refuse areas, transport interiors and other high-footfall spaces where odour- causing matter builds up between cleaning cycles.


Efficiency that reduces


environmental burden Consolidating a shelf of products into a single dilutable concentrate changes the shape of a cleaning regime. Fewer SKUs mean fewer COSHH assessments, simpler training and less room for misuse or over-dosing across dispersed or high-turnover teams. The concentrate format, available fragranced or unfragranced, also reduces the packaging and transport volume associated with multiple ready-to- use products, and Evogen ONE's bottles are produced using recycled plastic. For FM providers reporting against Scope 3 targets, that is a specific, auditable change rather than a general statement.


There is a second, less obvious benefit: asset protection. Harsh, corrosive cleaning chemicals shorten the working life of washroom fittings, carpets and other high-touch assets, and premature replacement carries its own embedded carbon cost, from raw materials through to manufacturing and disposal.


Evogen ONE's low-impact formulation is designed to clean effectively without degrading these surfaces, extending replacement cycles as a consequence of choosing a gentler chemistry. Reduced chemical usage across a site also lowers the number of active substances entering wastewater systems, which benefits both receiving watercourses and a site's own COSHH obligations.


Evidence over assertion None of this is presented as a leap of faith. Evogen ONE sits within Genesis Biosciences' wider eco-benign framework, in which efficacy and sustainability claims are tied to a defined mechanism rather than left as an assertion. The product is manufactured in the UK from bio-based, biodegradable components, and has been developed for use across more than eight professional environments, from washrooms and hospitality to waste handling, industrial and agricultural sites, where hygiene and odour demands are typically at their highest.


For formulation and technical buyers wanting supply reliability and compliance detail, as well as for FM and sustainability managers building the case for change, that combination of documented evidence and broad, tested application is the difference between a sustainability claim and a sustainability credential.


One product, one protocol, one solution For FM teams looking for a genuine, reportable sustainability gain that does not add operational complexity, the answer may be simpler than you think. Replacing a shelf of conventional cleaners with a single bio-based concentrate is a straightforward step that touches on procurement, training, carbon reporting and asset management all at once. One product, one protocol, one solution.
