About Us

In the everyday business of healthcare, few things are more important than effective hygiene. Whether it’s hands, skin, surfaces, or shared environments, maintaining high hygiene standards is essential in reducing the spread of harmful pathogens. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has long recognised the critical role hygiene plays in preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), with its guidelines forming the foundation of many local and global infection control policies.

Today, infection prevention goes far beyond handwashing — it includes skin antisepsis, surface disinfection, and ongoing care to protect both patients and caregivers. For over 130 years, schülke has focused on one mission: stopping the spread of infection before it starts.

The MICROSHIELD^® range brings this philosophy to life, supporting healthcare professionals, patients and consumers with a trusted selection of products designed to promote cleaner, safer environments — from surgical scrubs and skin cleansers to sanitisers and moisturisers.

Proudly supporting health and wellbeing across Australia and New Zealand, Microshield® delivers hospital-grade hygiene for wherever life takes you. Our products are now available over the counter across leading pharmacy chains in Australia and New Zealand. From everyday skin care and infection prevention to pre-surgery body washing MICROSHIELD has a product to support your health and wellbeing.
