About Us
Welcome to SnootSpray.com, the place for chlorine dioxide based nose care!
Sinox Pharma, the makers of Snoot! Spray, is a family-owned business, founded in 2010 in the hills of the lovely Southern California hamlet of Topanga. We are a technology spin-off of Frontier Pharmaceutical, the originators of small scale chlorine dioxide products for personal, animal and commercial use. Frontier's pioneer and inventor, the late, great Howard Alliger, created the space for widespread adoption of chlorine dioxide, saving untold numbers of people and pets from ill health and discomfort - going back to the '70's! Howard's first company, Alcide Corp, is all over the US Patent website and is the foundation of virtually every patent that utilizes chlorine dioxide today. Alcide, Frontier Pharm & Snoot! are featured extensively in the 2021 documentary: The Universal Antidote. See it here for free: www.theuniversalantidote.com
Since the launch of our flagship product, Sinox Spray, in August of 2010, we've helped thousands of customers find freedom from the Neti-Pot, ineffective and often damaging saline rinses, and a wide range of big-pharma drugs such as antihistamines, decongestants, steroidal sprays and antibiotics. We renamed Sinox Spray to "Snoot! Nasal Cleanser" in August of 2012.
Snoot! Cleanser, formerly known as Sinox Spray.
The name "Sinox" was initially chosen, but it sounded a bit more medical/medicinal and that's how our original packaging came out. It was a nice looking brand, and memorable too. There were, though, some negative associations: Sinox is also the name of a registered pesticide brand, and we were always concerned that someone would confuse us with "Vick's Sinex", an antihistamine (drug) spray.
So we did another name search and ended up on Snoot. Ironically it was right where we started initially: Snoot was the name that we used on the original product concept. Everyone just assumed that we wouldn't use the name, and that it wasn't even available for trademark. Not so, as it turns out, and the USPTO awarded us the trademark to "Snoot!" shortly thereafter. We had our excellent creative team, led by Gabrielle Raumberger of Endless Possibilities, come up with a new look, and we incorporated the feedback that we received from thousands of customers into our messaging. We're very happy with the new brand. People have told us that they miss the Sinox Spray name, and in some ways, we do too.
One of the most important things that branding experts tell you is that the brand should match the experience. Sinox looked kind of like a drug, and that's sort of what people would expect from it. Snoot! looks much more like a cleanser/health-aid, and that's exactly what it is.
