Eco-Point

What Eco-Point does

Eco-Point International B.V. is a Dutch specialty chemicals company founded in 1991 (operational for 30+ years) that develops and sells biobased industrial cleaning and maintenance products. The company's core technology converts agricultural crop waste streams — including sugar beets, corn, and rapeseed — into proprietary biodegradable cleaning formulations developed in an in-house laboratory. Products are positioned as hazard-symbol-free alternatives to traditional solvents (acetone, thinner, white spirit, trichloroethylene, brake cleaners), with high flash points, no VOC emissions, ISEGA food-safety certification, and REACH/CLP regulatory compliance. The portfolio spans 35+ SKUs across degreasers, brake cleaners, paint strippers, graffiti removers, adhesive/resin removers, ink removers, and industrial hand soaps, sold in containers from 500ml to 1000L IBC tanks.

The company sells exclusively to B2B customers across eight vertical segments: automotive, construction, chemical, defense/military, energy/oil/gas/maritime, machine building and metal, transport and logistics, and printing. Pricing is per-liter, ranging from €11.42 to €339.60 depending on product, with free shipping on orders of 60+ liters in Benelux and Germany. Go-to-market combines direct e-commerce (multi-language platform) with enterprise field sales — including free on-site practical tests, Safety Scans, and consultation — plus regional channel partners: Eco-Point BV (Belgium), DST-CHEMICALS GmbH (Germany), and EcoPro Solutions (UK). Graaf Logistics handles 99% of deliveries in core markets. The consumer-facing Anura brand (anura-shop.com) routes individual consumers away from the B2B platform.

The company is privately held and founder/management-owned, with managing director Tim Toonen. It operates as a group of three wholly-owned entities (Eco-Point International B.V. in Netherlands, Eco-Point BV in Belgium, and DST-CHEMICALS GmbH in Germany) with 11–50 employees. No external investment, private equity, or venture capital backing is disclosed.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Diversey Holdings: Global provider of hygiene, cleaning, and sanitation chemicals and tools for food service, hospitality, healthcare, and industrial customers. Overlaps with Eco-Point in industrial degreasing and sanitation, especially in food-processing and institutional hygiene segments.
• Zep Inc. US-headquartered manufacturer of industrial and institutional cleaning and maintenance chemicals (degreasers, solvents, vehicle care). Competes with Eco-Point in industrial degreasing and maintenance, though broader in scope and primarily North American.
• Henkel: German multinational with industrial adhesive, sealant, and surface-treatment businesses alongside consumer cleaning products. Comparable to Eco-Point in industrial cleaning/degreasing chemistry and DACH market presence, though as a much larger diversified player.
• Ecolab: Global leader in water, hygiene, and infection-prevention solutions, including industrial cleaning and sanitation chemicals across food & beverage, manufacturing, and transportation. A broad incumbent operating in the same downstream industrial-cleaning applications where Eco-Point competes, but at much larger scale and across many more verticals.
• Stepan Company: US specialty chemical manufacturer producing surfactants and cleaning compounds used in household, industrial, and institutional cleaners. Comparable to Eco-Point in cleaning-compound chemistry, though Stepan primarily supplies ingredients rather than finished end-user products.
• Greenbridge (formerly BASF Care Chemicals cleaning line distributors / BioLoop-type European eco-cleaning niche players): Solvay is a large European specialty chemical manufacturer with biobased and sustainable chemistry offerings that increasingly compete with Eco-Point in eco-positioned industrial cleaners and degreasers. Adjacent comparison as a broader chemical incumbent with biobased ambitions.

Emerging players

• Pilot Chemical: US-based specialty chemical company manufacturing surfactants, antimicrobial products, and cleaning chemistries for industrial and consumer applications. Adjacent competitor with overlapping cleaning-chemistry expertise, though smaller and focused on ingredient supply rather than finished products.

Direct peers

• Bio-Circle Surface Technology: Germany-based manufacturer of biobased, hazard-symbol-free industrial cleaners and degreasers for metalworking, automotive, and maintenance applications. Closest direct competitor to Eco-Point given shared biobased positioning, German/European industrial focus, and overlapping SKU categories (degreasers, paint strippers, corrosion protection).

Regional players

• KiiltoClean / Kiilto Oy: Finnish family-owned manufacturer of industrial and professional cleaning, hygiene, and surface-treatment chemicals serving Northern Europe. Comparable niche industrial-cleaning peer with similar size profile and ESG positioning, though primarily serving the Nordics rather than Benelux/UK.

Others

• ChargeCar / Anura: Anura is Eco-Point's own consumer cleaning brand, spun out for direct-to-consumer sales, offering ecological home cleaning products derived from the same biobased formulation philosophy. Included as a related-party ecosystem participant rather than a competitive peer.
