Maxani Animal Healthcare

Maxani Animal Healthcare specializes in veterinary dermatology for pets, located in Soest (Utrecht). We develop skincare products for veterinarians (Maxani brand) and grooming salons (DermaGroom brand) – in the Netherlands and other European countries. Additionally, in Q4, we are launching our new brand, Max Petcare.
