The company has manufactured and delivered eight million units of hand sanitiser in total to sectors including retail, hospitality and healthcare to date.
By the end of 2021, the company will also have invested a total of €1.5 million over 18 months into the Mayo and Cork sites, further increasing adherence to good manufacturing practice and enhancing output capacity, commercial marketing and ecommerce capabilities.
