*IGEA Pharma support Italian COVID-19 battle*
Hoofddorp, the Netherlands, 18 March 2020. IGEA Pharma (SIX: IGPH) today
announced an explosion in the demand for dry aerosol devices in Italy as a
result of the COVID-19 outbreak so severely affecting this country.
IGEA operates in air and surfaces sanitization with aerosol technology-based
devices following the understandings on the acquisition of privately held
Medical Jet. Vincenzo Moccia, CEO of IGEA: "The proven action of our aerosol
solutions together with Rely+On Virkon(R) in reducing a broad spectrum of
viruses and bacteria is highly appreciated. We remain fully committed to
contribute in solving the problems of contamination of the air and the
surfaces in the environments with high infections and life-threatening
risk".
The demand for aerosol solutions in Italy increased by 20 times compared to
historic demand. As a result, IGEA and Medial Jet are enhancing the
production capacities.
