REFMAX Hand Sanitizers were founded by Ismail Ahmed, an international pharmacist who migrated to Canada in January 2020. Shortly after the pandemic started and when the Hand Sanitizers began to be out of stock, Ismail came up with the idea of launching a Canadian Hand Sanitizer brand in order to participate in the fight against COVID-19. In April 2020 he founded Antar Lab Industries Inc. to start the manufacturing journey for REFMAX.
REFMAX is made from high quality ingredients and offers the consumer 3 different scent options to choose from (lemon, lavender, or unscented) which comes in different sizes.
REFMAX is a proud member of the Ontario Made initiative and is one of the first brands which adapted the Ontario Made logo on their product label and promotional materials.
