CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA: Stoltz One, a Cape Town-based company, has announced that it has been granted a permit to operate during South Africa’s 21-day national lockdown in a bid to supply the essential services sector with personal protective equipment (PPE), which is in high demand around the world.
South Africa’s coronavirus figures show a total of 1326 recorded cases of infection with 3 deaths, as of 31 March 2020. In impacted countries, coronavirus is placing medical care facilities under immense strain due to rising infection numbers.
To strengthen the South African response to this global pandemic, Stoltz One can supply disposable PPE products like 3-ply masks, N95 masks, powder-free surgical gloves and medical protective coveralls, as well as other necessary equipment such as COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test Devices, non-contact forehead thermometers, mechanical ventilators and hand sanitisers with a 75% ethyl alcohol content.
Leon Stoltz, CEO of Stoltz One, says, “With thousands of COVID-19 tests being done and the number of confirmed coronavirus cases rising daily, PPE is running in short supply due to use not only by medical staff but also those working in places like grocery stores, petrol stations and pharmacies, who are critical to the running of the country during this difficult time.”
According to statistics from the World Health Organisation, the novel coronavirus has infected around 720 000 people in 203 countries around the world, leaving many health systems in crisis with a critical shortage of PPE.
“As expected, there is increased demand globally for PPE but despite extended lead times, our employees are dedicated to working during this national lockdown period, so the company is confident that it can fulfil orders. We are in close contact with suppliers to ensure that stock is available for continued supply,” says Stoltz.
