The ongoing impact of COVID-19 has affected everyone. Any business that requires the use of vehicles will need to ensure their people and those that depend on their services are protected.
The COVID-19 outbreak has led to an increased concern about hygiene with drivers and passengers being advised to disinfect frequently touched areas like door handles, key fobs, and steering wheels to prevent the spread of the virus.
The idea that lies behind the development of CARIAL is to create an innovative disinfection device that will make vehicle disinfection available to everyone.

The B2B2C business model relies on a close partnership between our company, our partners from the B2B segment, and the final consumers from the B2C segment, and is designed to slowly build a dedicated consumer base for our company over time.

- Patented Innovation – World’s first patented self-standing, stationary sanitizer that kills, germs, bacteria, and viruses on contact which can be used by everyone, everywhere.
- Cost and time-saving solution - While local car disinfection services offer their services to a price from 35-280 Euros and time consumption of about 1 hour, by using CARIAL you can accomplish this task in a time of 20-30 seconds to an affordable price of 4-6 Euros.

Factor 1- Crisis - The worst scenario for many businesses is the fear of the next lockdown as a crisis factor for failing of their business. Although the chances for the global lockdown are low, there is a possibility that different countries may confront a periodical lockdown due to the higher impact of COVID19 on their territory. That is why for the Phase I – the development phase, our company requires investment for outsourcing. Working with partners to outsource the development of different parts or the manufacturing of our products can bypass the impact of these factors to its success.
Factor 2 - New technologies – The disinfecting robot technology – The stringent government regulations in many regions represent a major factor in increasing the development and use of disinfectant robots. This new technology does not pose a threat to our company although there is a direct correlation to reducing infection risk for people because it’s costly and not available to everyone, which are the two major competitive advantages of our product.
