Sharp Contributes to the Fight Against COVID-19 with 100 Units of Plasmacluster™ Technology Air Purifiers Donated to 5 Hospitals in Singapore
In this fight against COVID-19 together as a nation, Sharp Singapore played its part to help ensure a safe working and rehabilitation environment in several local hospitals. 100 units of Plasmacluster™ Air Purifiers were donated to, Changi General Hospital, Ng Teng Fong Hospital, Sengkang General Hospital and Singapore General Hospital, and Alexandra Hospital. Measures were taken in delivery to ensure we abided by safe distancing laws. A big THANK YOU to our healthcare and essential service workers during this time!
In 1973, Sharp codified the unchanging spirit of its founder in the Company’s business philosophy and business creed. The business philosophy, which states Sharp’s vision, includes statements such as “Contribute to the culture, benefits and welfare of the people throughout the world.” This forms the foundation of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at Sharp today, aimed at achieving co-existence and mutual prosperity with society and stakeholders. As part of this CSR movement, Sharp hopes to support frontline healthcare workers, and play a role in the fight against COVID-19. Knowing that their air purifiers can contribute a pivotal role in ensuring good air quality in hospitals with COVID-19 patients, Sharp has specially set aside these units to cater for the donation. All four hospitals are currently caring for COVID-19 patients.
“At Sharp, we are committed to contribute meaningfully to society through our two key principals - Sincerity and Creativity. Our Plasmacluster™ Technology has been proven since 2004, to inactivate air borne coronavirus. With more than 80 million units of air purifiers sold World-wide to-date, we are very confident in our products and the benefits that they bring to our consumers.” Said Mr. Seiji Hayakawa, Managing Director at Sharp Singapore Electronics Corporation Pte Ltd. “We hope that our contribution will help patients rest with a peace of mind, and staff to feel better secured, knowing that the air is being constantly cleansed with the Plasmacluster™ Technology ions in the enclosed spaces that they spend most of their time in.”
