Mission

Frais’ mission is to improve the health and welfare of travelers, business people and families. More than 80% of cases of infectious illnesses are spread by the hands, according to the Centers for Disease Control (2007).  The Mayo Clinic (2007) reports that alcohol-based hand sanitizers are actually more effective than soap and water in killing bacteria and viruses that cause disease.

History

Michael and Robert invented Frais in 2006 during a tour of Cambodia’s stunning Angkor Wat temple complex.  Trying to keep themselves healthy in Cambodia, they simply could not understand why the process of regular hand sanitizing had to be so clinical and unpleasant when the Earth provides many amazing plant essences.  They worked with chemists in the United States to make an elegant-feeling non-toxic sanitizer, and recruited essential oil experts in Australia to create a sensuous moisturizing oil blend.  Customers all over the world love the result, Frais Les Huit Hand Sanitizer.  Take good care of yourself, and try Frais today!
