Three months of FungiSmart: control, response and results

It has been three months since FungiSmart officially saw the light of day. Three months full of fungi, surprises, successes and smart questions from users. Time to take a look back: what have we learned, what are we proud of and what can we do even smarter?

"I like the products very much. I saw improvement in my nail very quickly. No chemical mess and so cleverly devised this system!" - Annemiek Keizer of Pedicure Practice Danswijk

Wrap it like it's hot: FungiSmart's first fans

When we introduced FungiSmart, it was a bit of a switch for some. A fungicide... that is itself a fungus? Yep. Pythium Oligandrum, microbiologically a wonder drug. It eats fungi until the nutrient soil is consumed after which it becomes inactive. We do our best to inform everyone about it and within no time, more and more people knew how to embrace the concept. Thanks in part to FungiSmart magazine, our Facebook groups for professionals and telephone contact. Yep you read that right, we are available for all your questions. Something comes to mind? Then give us a call 013-4551749

FungiSmart in practice

We see many pedicures and professionals quickly becoming proficient in working with the FungiSmart wraps, footbaths and supporting products such as the oil and footwear powder. The combination approach works, especially if there is good communication with the customer.

What we often hear back:

✔️ The wraps are easy to apply without 

✔️ People like that the treatment is natural

✔️ Improvement can sometimes be seen after just 1 treatment, but usually after 2 or 3

✔️ Starting a treatment without measuring is a waste of your time. The FungiCheck really turns out to be a game-changer in this: visually, a nail sometimes still appears affected, while the fungus has long been defeated

What will the future bring?

FungiSmart has only just started, but has already proved that things can be different, and better, in the world of nail care. Without aggressive agents. With smart microbiology.

We continue to listen, test, explain and support. Expect new materials, instructional videos, more (web) training sessions and results from satisfied users.

Frequently asked questions and answers

  1. Do you always have to do three wraps?
    👉 Not always. Three is the guideline, but evaluation is key. Do you see strong improvement after two? Then you can switch to maintenance in consultation with the professional.
  2. What if the customer works a lot with water or chemicals?
    👉 That affects the survival of Pythium Oligandrum. In such a case, a longer post-treatment is smart.
  3. How do I know if it works?
    👉 Have an interim FungiCheck done. That way you'll know if you still need to move on or can finish.
