Are you still in this? How do you see this playing out ?
There's still a ton of potential here, glad to see Martin stayed on, he seemed to be the most critical person in the c-suite since his father left.
There should be more opportunities available in the coating business and maybe some good new talent to look at, as Covalon is abandoning their coating business that brought in about a million a year of R&D work and a small royalty stream.
Indeed, refreshing to see some changes
so exciting with all the recent news and change. http://www.nonamestocks.com/2023/09/hydi-new-beginning.html
I’m excited for this activist group to take charge and clean up this company. There’s millions of value just sitting there being wasted.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/hydromer-inc-otc-hydi-shareholders-235000049.html
Thanks.
I only invest in shells
Investing in actual businesses is too much risk on the OTC LOL
I look for Custo shells that are getting cleaned up and sold. That’s my cup of tea.
https://www.synergymgtgroup.com/
These business that waited for the final hour to get current are a major red flag., procrastination is an insult to common shareholders holders.
This should have never gone dark to wind up on the Tier change list.
Nothing like watching your stock get sent into the grey sheets to motivate a CEO.,not a good resume builder.
I can see R/M shells getting cleaned up at this final hour, but not a viable business.
This came up on the Tier list a few days back. Made me look.
Just not my cup of tea either..

Not a shell, Hydromer is still the family business I profiled in the i-box above.
I sold near the end of last year because I was frustrated that financials were so far behind, there was little to no evidence of growth, and financial discipline the father had show. In running this business was clearly thrown to the wayside.
These recent financials aren't much to get excited about, but the new customer win sounds potentially significant.....but I'm content to watch from the outside for now.

Not sure why N8 Endotracheal tube program doesn't seam to have advanced.
I guess the Canadian EUA still stands, but not like we'll get to see if makes any difference to HYDI financials.
Gave up holding this company, despite how much I like their business, they'll never move up market and get attention from more serious investors with their erratic financial reporting over the past few years.

Hydromer's Plant Based Sanitizers Show Significant Reduction of COVID-19 Virus and Many Other Microbes
Concord, NC, Sept. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE – Hydromer, Inc. (OTC:HYDI) or “the Company” announced today that its plant-based EscenciaProtect™ line of sanitizing products showed significant reduction in growth of COVID-19 virus in recent testing done by the external “Institute for Antiviral Research” lab at the University of Utah.
The testing shows statistically significant reduction in the growth of the COVID-19 virus when exposed to Hydromer’s plant-based sanitizer formulations. The study showed that “tested neat and at dilutions at 15-minute and 1-hour contact time intervals, the test samples exhibited virucidal activity, reducing SARS-CoV-2 below the limit of detection resulting in Log Reduction Values of >2.5 (>99%) and >3.5 (>99.9%). Neutral controls did not inhibit virus growth and did not exhibit cytotoxicity.”
Previous testing done by other external labs have shown these products to also be effective against a variety of other microbes including NoroVirus, MRSA, Salmonella, E-Coli and others, validating that Hydromer’s EscenciaProtect™ line has broad-spectrum sanitizing capabilities.
“Hydromer is very proud to have one of the first greener alternatives to alcohol-based sanitizers, now tested and available in the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic. With so many segments of the market desperate for alcohol-free product, such as schools, retail, airlines and more, we recognized how critical it was to test our proprietary technology against this specific virus. We are very pleased to be in a position now to supply a much-needed alternative to the growing market of sanitizers,” said Peter M. von Dyck, Hydromer CEO.
In addition, with performance features such as plant-based, natural, longer lasting moisturization, non-flammable and many others, Hydromer’s patented EscenciaProtect™ line offers a very compelling non-alcohol solution for various sanitation needs. The line is being offered in various formulation formats such as ready-to-use sanitizer, sprayable liquid, ready-to-use hand soap, concentrate additive for formulation, and others. Hydromer looks forward to partnerships and distribution opportunities with other companies to take this unique technology into the hands of end users for various sanitation needs across various market segments.

N8 Medical Announces its CeraShield™ Coating inhibits COVID-19 Virus Growth on Endotracheal Tubes

Photo of endotracheal tube extubated from patient with COVID-19. Green coloration of the tube is indicative of extensive bacterial fouling.
Reduction in COVID-19 Virus Exposure May Benefit Patients, Doctors and Nurses
DUBLIN, OHIO, UNITED STATES, August 11, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- N8 Medical, LLC, a privately held biotechnology company, today announced that its CeraShield™ coated endotracheal tubes significantly reduced the growth of COVID-19 virus in recent testing. The testing shows statistically significant reduction in the growth of the COVID-19 virus on the tube surface in 60 minutes. Ordinary uncoated endotracheal tubes either allowed increased virus growth or had no inhibitory effect.
“Recent COVID-19 research has shown that the virus is able to adhere to plastic surfaces and is also able to be aerosolized and inhaled by people in close proximity, including doctors and nurses” says Ronald Bracken, President and Chief Operating Officer of N8. Mr. Bracken added “Most endotracheal tubes are made of plastic. COVID-19 patients who become mechanically ventilated will require use of one of these plastic tubes to connect to the mechanical ventilator.”
Ordinary endotracheal tubes lack any antifouling protection. Within hours, these tubes become breeding grounds for biofilms, pathogenic bacteria, fungi and viruses. This often leads to deadly secondary infections that can be multidrug resistant, and other complications.
Dr. Michael Niederman, a leading expert in respiratory infections and a member of N8 Medical’s Scientific Advisory Board stated “Anything that can significantly reduce the presence of pathogens on the surface of an endotracheal tube is a welcome advance that has the potential to reduce a patient’s length of stay, reduce antibiotic and drug use and improve patient’s outcomes. I look forward to the results of clinical studies to evaluate the magnitude of the potential benefit of the CeraShield™ endotracheal tube in COVID-19 patients.”
N8 Medical has previously completed first-in-human clinical trials in non-COVID, mechanically ventilated patients with no adverse effects. Those clinical studies have shown that the CeraShield™ endotracheal tubes were able to completely prevent pathogenic bacterial and fungal biofilm growth of tube surfaces.
A leading market research firm recently awarded N8 Medical’s CeraShield™ endotracheal tube “Product Innovation of the Year” award for its CeraShield™ technology platform for prevention of hospital-acquired infections. FDA has designated the CeraShield™ endotracheal tube as a “breakthrough device.”
The company previously announced that Health Canada has granted Emergency Use Authorization for use of the CeraShield™ endotracheal tube in COVID-19 patients who require mechanical ventilation in Canada. The Company has pending EUA request with the FDA and with the MHRA in the UK. Clinical studies are currently planned in COVID-19 hotspots. Hospitals that have an interest in participating in clinical studies are encouraged to contact N8 Medical at covid@n8medical.com.

They are definitely testing my patience, on one hand their business execution seems to be going great with the pivot to manufacturing hand sanitizer, securing a contract to supply the N8 Endotracheal tubes, and even getting a meeting with congressmen and Secretary of Commerce, as posted on their LinkedIn.
On the other hand, I just want to see some current financials and see how much of their cash pile was used up with the move and modernization of their manufacturing facilities. I bet this stock would be a couple dollars higher, even if those financials showed they burned through the cash and were about break even with operations.....but no one knows....it takes trust.....and I trust the kids want to make their Dad proud with their innovation and leadership.....but show us some recent numbers....PLEASE!
Great find but unfortunately ( almost tragically) metaphorically I washed my hands of the whole thing!!!!

May help prevent deadly ventilator-associated bacterial infections and complications in COVID-19 patients
DUBLIN, Ohio, April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- N8 Medical, LLC (N8) today announced that Health Canada has granted emergency use access marketing approval of the company's CeraShield™ Endotracheal Tube for all Canadian mechanically-ventilated COVID-19 patients. FDA has previously designated the CeraShield ETT as a "breakthrough" device. N8 plans to continue to seek emergency use authorizations in other countries.
N8's CeraShield™ tube has a patented anti-fouling coating designed to prevent deadly bacterial infections that frequently occur in ventilated patients. Conventional endotracheal tubes allow pathogenic bacteria to rapidly grow on the tube surfaces and are a source of infection that may lead to acute kidney injury, sepsis and death.
"There is growing concern over the reported high death rates among mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients. Death rates as high as 50% in China and 80% in New York have been reported. Patients infected with the COVID-19 virus who require mechanical ventilation are highly susceptible to exposure to bacterial pathogens and ventilation complications. The coating on the CeraShield tube prevents the formation of biofilms that routinely foul the plastic surfaces of unprotected conventional endotracheal tubes and lead to bacteria growth," said Carl Genberg, N8's Chief Scientific Officer.
"N8's CeraShield™ Endotracheal Tube may reduce secondary bacterial infections, save lives and expand ventilator resource capacity by getting patients off ventilators sooner," said Ronald Bracken, N8's President and Chief Operating Officer. "We are pleased that Health Canada is now allowing all hospitals to have access to this potentially life-saving technology."
If you are a Canadian clinician or facility desiring to access CeraShield™ Endotracheal Tubes, please contact the company promptly at covid@n8medical.com as supplies are currently limited.
N8 has partnered with Hydromer Inc. (www.hydromer.com) and its wholly owned subsidiary and med-tech division, Biosearch Medical Products, Inc., in connection with material supply and production of the CeraShield™ Endotracheal Tubes for this important effort.
