Panasonic presents PGH with patented devices equipped with nanoe ™ and nanoe ™ X to use

Manila, Philippines – Panasonic, as part of its global campaign to spread the advocacy for cleaner, fresher air for life, recently donated to the Philippine General Hospital – nanoeMT air purifiers, nanoeMT X generators and air conditioners equipped with nanoeMT X that have been verified to have inhibitory effects on the novel coronavirus *0.

Panasonic Air-Conditioning Philippines General Manager Masaru Toyota, Life Solutions Group Country Manager Yosuke Tanaka, PGH Director, Dr Gerardo Legaspi, PGH Spokesman, Dr Jonas del Rosario, Director Assistant Hospital Operations, Dr Stella Manalo; and Head of the Hospital Infection Control Unit, Dr Regina Berba.

In his statement, Panasonic Air-Conditioning Philippines CEO Masaru Toyota explained that this has always been Panasonic’s intention, with the introduction of the nanoeMT in 1997 and nanoeMT X in 2016, to provide cleaner and fresher air to improve the quality of life for all.

Mr. Toyota further explained, “In 2009, with the help of an independent testing organization, Panasonic verified the effect of hydroxyl radicals in water against avian influenza and new strains of influenza, and in 2012, together with an independent testing organization in Germany, we performed virus elimination tests which showed the technology’s effectiveness against highly resistant viruses and unknown viruses. “*1

“Last year, again, using an independent testing organization, Texcell *2 – France, we further verified the inhibitory effect of Panasonic’s patented nanoeMT X on the new coronavirus which causes Covid-19, ”he added.

The PGH business is part of a larger program by Panasonic in the Philippines to provide air purification and anti-covid technology from nanoeMT X at selected sites in the National Capital Region to protect primary care physicians and Filipinos in vaccination zones and make them feel safer, as well as the public, with the theme “Bring back the Filipino smile” in partnership with selected local governments.

The CEO of Panasonic Philippines said, “Our goal is for our medical liners to feel a safer environment and for patients to also have a sense of added protection outside of current mandatory hygiene practices like wearing masks, l use of face shields and use of hand sanitizers.
