Our story

At Laboratoire M2, we firmly believe that health and safety must coexist. Through science, innovation and a desire to make things better, eco-friendly alternatives to toxic disinfectants can be developed thereby giving current—and future—generations a better quality of life and a greener world.

Hearing about millions of sheep and cows being culled as a result of a foot-and-mouth outbreak in Britain in 2001, led Serge Auray—then the owner of a 140-employee cleaning company specializing in sanitization and disinfection of institutional and industrial sites—to find a less toxic and effective barn disinfectant that would diminish disease transmission without raising food safety issues.
Teaming up with a University researcher, the duo developed a thymol-based solution—thymol is found in the oil produced by the thyme plant—that would revolutionize the future of cleaning and disinfecting products.

After 5 challenging years of research and testing—and the relocation into a state-of-the-art laboratory—an efficient and stable formula was discovered. In 2011, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency registered Thymox as effective against viruses, bacteria and fungi—even killing the SARS-COV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in one minute.

Today, Thymox botanical products are distributed worldwide to contribute to a safer and greener future.

To share innovative green products around the world

We are looking for more distributors to market our products under the Thymox label or your own private label—or if you don’t see the product you have in mind using our botanically derived technology, we can co-innovate and convert your product idea into a reality in our state-of-the-art microbiology laboratory in Canada.
