PCT LTD Increases Fluid Capacity, Hires New Design Engineer, Ramps Up Midwest Fulfillment Capabilities
Late last month the company shifted its short-term focus towards fluid production and sales to meet increasing demand.
PCT LTD (OTC Pink: PCTL) ("PCTL") is excited to announce they have increased production capacity at their Little River, South Carolina facility.
Updating an earlier release (March 25th), the South Carolina facility is now capable of producing up to 10,000 gallons of fluids per day. A marked increase over earlier capabilities. The company is now better positioned to meet the growing demand for its Hypochlorous Acid-based disinfecting fluids.
“Our team has been working around the clock over the last several weeks to make this happen,” says Stuart Emmons, PCTL Executive VP of Engineering and R & D. “The South Carolina facility is now better positioned to fulfill the daily orders we have been receiving.”
Due in part to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the company has seen an exponential increase in sales and inquiries from current and prospective customers. Late last month the company shifted its short-term focus towards fluid production and sales to meet increasing demand.
“It’s supply and demand,” according to PCTL CEO Gary Grieco. “The demand is there and now so is the supply. We needed to shift our focus towards where we can have the most impact and do the most good for our customers and the communities they serve. At the same time, this presents an opportunity for us to elevate our profile, grow our business, and showcase how effective our products can be in the ongoing fight against the spread of infectious disease.”
The company has also been hiring additional support staff to support growing business operations. Most recently, the company engaged Joseph Tippmann, graduate of The University of Michigan’s Industrial Design and Architecture program, as a new design engineer. Tippmann joined the company on a contract basis initially and has spent the past two weeks performing design updates on Annihilyzer and Hydrolyte Rack systems in addition to helping design a more modular system for easier assembly.
Tippmann is also a co-owner of Werks Manufacturing, a Fort Wayne, Indiana based manufacturing company which PCTL engages for the purpose of manufacturing and assembling parts for use in the company’s Annihilyzer® Infection Control System and other systems.
Werks Manufacturing is expanding their operation and will increase parts and assembly production to meet PCTL’s growing demand. In addition, Werks will also serve as a fluid depot for PCTL’s clients in the northern Midwest part of the United States. Werks will initially be capable of producing up to 4,000 gallons per day of disinfecting fluids, including Hydrolyte®, for sale and use by PCTL to clients in Detroit, Chicago, and throughout the region. This fluid production capacity can be increased as needed to serve growing demand.
“We are continuing our rapid growth plans,” says Grieco. “Through strategic partnerships, distribution agreements, and more, we are gaining market share, increasing revenue at a rapid pace, and growing our business both quickly and efficiently.”
