Amid pandemic price gouging, two companies partner to provide affordable hand sanitizer

TUSTIN, Calif. - EntSun -- When the COVID-19 pandemic hit last spring, companies large and small were faced with new existential threats.

One of those threats: keeping "nonessential" employees safe at work in the midst of a hand sanitizer shortage.

Nearly all FDA-approved sanitization products have been directed to hospitals, first responders, and "essential" businesses, leaving only overpriced options for businesses deemed "nonessential."

Two American businesses have joined forces to create a solution. Safe House, a distillery in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Franek Technologies Inc., a California-based manufacturer of uninterruptible power supplies for laboratories, have united to manufacture and distribute their own sanitizer at a fair price point to empower nonessential businesses.

The companies hope to bring Safe House Hand Sanitizer to restaurants, private ambulance companies, retirement homes, self-employed caregivers, private labs, veterinarians, dog groomers, and other businesses trying to keep their doors open while protecting their staff and customers.

Sold by the gallon, the 80-percent alcohol antiseptic is a topical solution that, when applied generously as a hand rub, can help reduce bacteria, viruses, and other microbes known to potentially cause disease.

Hand sanitizer has proven essential in creating sanitized interior environments protecting against coronavirus exposure. Frequent hand washing and sanitizing are the most important ways to slow or stop the spread of coronavirus and other dangerous infectious diseases.

"We saw other businesses being price gouged and wanted to create a win-win situation for everyone," said Geri Miller, spokesperson for Franek Technologies. "During this pandemic, a lot of greedy people came out of the woodworks, but there are a lot of good people looking out for each other. Safe House and Franek came together to reinvent ourselves while doing good for others."
