HALOSOURCE SEES BENEFIT FROM PARTNERSHIP WITH TUPPERWARE
HaloSource, Inc. (HALO.LN, HAL.LN) the clean water technology company, announced the commercial expansion of its HaloPure® technology cartridges into the Indian market through its partnership with Tupperware.
Tupperware India's national direct sales force has begun selling HaloPure technology in its new line of TupperSure gravity-fed devices designed specifically for the rapidly expanding Indian water purification market. The TupperSure device addresses increasing concerns about the consistency of the water supply and the potential contamination and spread of water-borne diseases as well as the annual impact of monsoon season on water quality.
The TupperSure device provides a one-stop solution to filtering, purifying and storing water utilizing HaloSource's class-leading HaloPure technology which kills 99.99% of viruses and 99.9999% bacteria to provide safe and clean drinking water. The TupperSure device is also equipped with a unique auto-shutoff system that stops the flow of water through the HaloPure cartridge after a measured period, ensuring users never consume water after the useful life of the cartridge has been exceeded.
TupperSure is India's 1st gravity-fed unit to be certified "Gold Seal" by WQA USA for bacteria and virus elimination. Compared with heavy, bulky and far more expensive and complex systems that require an uninterrupted supply of electricity and running water, TupperSure is simple to operate and maintain for achieving the highest level of water filtration with no power requirement.
Martin Coles, CEO of HaloSource commented, "We are deeply grateful to the Tupperware team for their belief in our science and commitment to bringing the very best standard of purification in the gravity fed segment to the Indian consumer. The Tupperware brand and products are respected and trusted by consumers worldwide for their quality, reliability and performance. Tupperware's direct sales team also provides a significant advantage in communicating the efficacy of our technology, and we are confident in a high adoption rate for the device and its replacement cartridges, which will further acknowledge the acceptance of our technology in the marketplace."
