OCI secures further distribution and allocation partnership with Honeywell and Strata

International manufacturer Honeywell, collaborates with leading supply chain partner, OCI Limited to continue the campaign against the impact of Covid-19

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, March 17, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- OCI has expanded its collaboration with Honeywell and the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund Mubadala subsidiary, Strata, by formalising a distribution agreement of essential healthcare equipment. Through the partnership over 3 million premium quality N95 masks have been supplied to the US and other nations.

Since the pandemic began, OCI Limited has been supporting businesses globally in the end-to-end procurement of PPE including providing the crucial financing and logistics. Due to COVID-19 being a respiratory disease, the use of N95 masks in various industries is vital in actively protecting key workers.

Oliver Chapman, Group CEO of OCI Limited said, “OCI is proud to be engaged with Honeywell and Strata for the distribution of their healthcare products. This partnership is critical in supplying governments and large corporations with the essential healthcare cargoes they need to survive in the current climate. This is yet another example of OCI’s capability to support important organisations under pressure and in volatile markets.”

N95 masks are protective tools designed purely for air filtration and a close facial fit, as specified by the FDA. OCI Limited continues to utilise its logistics and financial infrastructure to support the distribution of these essential PPE products.

Darius Adamczyk, Chairman and CEO of Honeywell said, “As a global leader in advanced worker safety technologies, Honeywell is committed to ensuring that PPE products are being placed quickly and cost-effectively in the hands of those most in need, including medical professionals and those on the front lines of the fight against the spread of COVID-19.”

Alongside their work within the UAE, Honeywell also increased domestic production of PPE within the UK. This resulted in a production line of 4.5 million disposable face masks per month, and the creation of 450 jobs at a time where unemployment was at its highest in the UK since 1971. Honeywell was committed to supplying 70 million face masks to the UK government over an 18-month time frame, further strengthening the UK’s response to the outbreak.
