Hungarian world first: AI calculator calculates how much a company will lose during the flu season and how much can be saved by using preventive technologies

Resysten’s coating technology represents a new level of preventive health protection: it reduces the microbiological load before the infection chain develops, thus measurably reducing absence due to illness. This is the first hygiene solution whose effect is proven and guaranteed by data, and the artificial intelligence (AI)-based calculator developed by PeakX shows exactly what kind of return on investment (ROI) preventive protection brings. Resysten thus offers companies not only technology, but also measurable, proven and commercially supported health protection.

Absence that costs billions

Absence due to illness is one of the largest, often underestimated, economic burdens worldwide. Its consequences are largely known, such as reduced productivity, slower processes, increased replacement and overtime costs or poor customer service.

In Germany, for example, an average of 17.7 days of sick leave per employee was spent per year in 2023, which meant an additional cost of 77 billion euros per employee for employers. This caused an annual loss of around 200 billion euros to the German economy, according to government estimates. In the United States, the cost of absenteeism due to illness for employers reaches $225.8 billion annually, according to the CDC.

According to the OECD, the average sick leave per employee in Hungary was 6.3 days in 2022. This amounted to a total of 9.7 million workdays and an annual cost of HUF 122.65 billion to the Hungarian economy.

Prevention pays off

The solution to this global problem is prevention. According to data from the United States Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the European Union Agency for Occupational Safety and Health (EUOSHA), 1 euro spent on prevention saves 2.2 euros; Preventive healthcare is an investment with a high return on investment (ROI).

The economic burden is enormous: the costs of workplace injuries and illnesses reach 3.9 percent of global GDP and 3.3 percent of European GDP, according to EUOSHA. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), work-related illnesses cost billions of euros annually in every region.

Answer to the problem: long-lasting hygiene protection in high-traffic areas

Resysten Hungary Kft. treats surfaces with our hygiene protective coating, which provides active protection 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, reduces the risk of cross-contamination, and creates a stable, long-term hygienic environment. The technology is particularly effective in locations where surface contact and traffic are intense — in offices, educational institutions, healthcare spaces, industrial facilities.

The solution is measurable and validated: based on feedback, Resysten’s clients have seen a minimum 6 percent reduction in sick leave. As a result, operational stability improved significantly, the number of unexpected shutdowns decreased significantly, and corporate efficiency increased demonstrably.

The specific results speak for themselves

• at British American Tobacco, the number of sick leave absences decreased by 6.4 percent,

• at the Szent Damján Greek Catholic Hospital, the number of nosocomial infections in the chronic ward decreased by 70 percent

• at the National Dialysis Center, Volán sites, Paks II Zrt., Foxconn, and   Semmelweis University, the level of environmental hygiene improved by 95–99 percent after the application of Resysten’s technology.

AI-based business modeling and automation

PeakX uses the latest AI technologies to optimize business processes. Together with Resysten, they have developed an ROI calculator that, in addition to modeling real business logic, performs industry-specific ROI calculations.

AI agents work in the background, running complex scenarios before providing results.

How does the ROI calculator work?

ROI calculator users can anonymously calculate the costs of Resysten surface treatment by entering various parameters and compare it with the
