(Hong Kong - 16 April 2020) Yestar Healthcare Holdings Company Limited
("Yestar" or the "Company" together with its subsidiaries, the "Group",
stock code: 2393.HK) announces that its high quality standard disposable
medical mask product commenced production in March. As of today, the
products have been exported to the United States of America, Japan,
Singapore, Indonesia etc., contributing strategic materials to fight the
pandemic of COVID-19.
With a planned monthly production capacity of 3 million pieces, Yestar
Healthcare's high quality standard disposable medical mask production line
has been officially put into operation by the end of March 2020. Many
countries around the globe are suffering from COVID-19 outbreak at the
moment. As an effective tool to prevent the spread of the virus, mask supply
is in great demand. In view of the situation, Yestar Healthcare plans to add
an additional production line in the near future, planning to increase the
disposable medical mask production capacity to 4 million pieces per month.
Mr. James Hartono, the Chairman of Yestar Healthcare, stated, "In response
to the outbreak, Yestar Healthcare has introduced the "84 Disinfectant" and
disposable medical mask in February and March respectively, which has
demonstrated the solid foundation of our capabilities in research and
development, production, managements, system and medical distribution
network. While increasing the production capacity of disposable medical
masks, we are also working on to produce medical N95 masks in May with a
planned monthly capacity of 3.7 million pieces. Medical N95 masks provides a
stronger protection by filtering out more virions, which are mainly used by
medical professionals. As we are facing a shortage of medical N95 worldwide,
Yestar Healthcare will mobilize all available resources to launch the
product as soon as possible, helping the frontline medical professionals in
fight against the virus outbreak."
