So that kids, can be kids.

Bitrex is the world’s most bitter substance! For more than 60 years we have been helping make products safer and protecting children from accidental poisoning.

Making products safer for 60 years

We pioneered this safety additive and work with manufacturers and retailers globally to make their products taste disgusting. This means that if curious children get into something that they shouldn’t, they are likely to spit it out immediately, helping preventing accidents.

As the world faces evolving challenges of smaller and more concentrated products, the role of Bitrex has become even more critical to help keep children safe.

Never play games with household products as this can confuse children into thinking that these containers with harmful chemicals are harmless toys 🧸

Make sure to recycle plastic containers properly and stick to toilet rolls or cardboard boxes for playtime 🚂

September is Child Safety Month - something we at Bitrex care deeply about!

75 children a week under five were admitted to hospital with suspected poisoning in 2020-21 in England alone.

At Bitrex, we want to protect more children from accidental poisonings - because kids can be anything they want to be, but they should always be safe.
