HALOSOURCE TECHNOLOGY FURTHER VALIDATED IN PRODUCT APPROVAL BY
CHINESE MINISTRY OF HEALTH
HaloSource, Inc. (HALO.LN, HAL.LN) the clean water technology company, is delighted to announce that the Chinese Ministry of Health (MOH) has approved the Perfect multi-stage water purifier. Earlier this year, HaloSource announced its new partnership and supply agreement with Perfect Water Purification Manufacturing Co. Ltd, a leading global supplier of consumer goods in China.
Through extended research and development, Perfect has chosen HaloSource's HaloPure® media as the key enabling technology in its very first water purifier launched in China. A cartridge containing HaloPure media is used as one stage of water purification in Perfect's multi-stage water purifier and provides a 99.9% reduction of water-borne bacteria and viruses.
Under the terms of the supply agreement, Perfect holds the exclusive right to sell pressurized water purification devices powered by HaloPure technology through its direct sales channels in China.
Martin Coles, CEO of HaloSource commented, "HaloPure was the first water purification technology to be approved under a rigorous standard developed by China's Ministry of Health in April 2011 and we are delighted that the collaboration with Perfect has resulted in another approval. This serves to validate further the potential of our proprietary HaloPure media and continues our strategy to build partnerships with leading companies that are able to deploy products which leverage our technology."
