Kajal Aggarwal said on the launch, “We have all given in to the fear and paranoia that has come with these tough times which also reflected in the message I had posted a couple of days back. As I turned a new chapter in my life just a couple of days back, I realized that change is the only constant and it is important to be more conscious about the need to find a safe and balanced solution for the evolved, new reality.  I feel we need to be more mindful and adopt a hygiene solution that is sustainable and reassuring in the long run. It is time to be better armed to be able to give a befitting response to the current situation. Given that it addresses all my concerns and expectations, I believe in the proposition of Nature Protect. I feel it answers the bigger problem and is the perfect balance between efficiency and safety.”

Expressing her thoughts on the launch, PV Sindhu said, “We have been very passive in our approach towards hygiene and that was until the pandemic acted as an eyeopener. However, I feel we are still being very shortsighted and superficial and have been adopting a hygiene approach that is not wired for these extreme times. As an athlete, I have always strived hard to adapt to any situation. But, I think all of us need a stronger support system to thrive in the new normal  The open letter that I had written aroused from this very thought and provoked me to believe that it’s time to be better prepared. The new reality demands a new solution, and this made me believe that Nature Protect is the right choice for our future. I think the range is holistic as it addresses various touchpoints that we interact with indoors and outdoors. It’s not just effective but more importantly safe for us and our loved ones.”
