PRESS RELEASE : ALPINTER SUPPLIES OVER 2,000 HOSPITAL TENTS FOR ORGANISATIONS AROUND THE WORLD

29/04/2020

The WHO declared COVID-19 as a pandemic on march 11, 2020. The Coronavirus responsible -SARS-CoV-2- continued to spread quickly and uncontrolled around the globe. Alpinter (Belgium) is at the forefront of supplying the organisations on the front lines of the crisis.

 

PRODUCTION CONTINUITY  OF RELIEF ITEMS

Thanks to strict safety measures, Alpinter was able to remain operational. We ensured all operational activities at our Belgian HQ can continue and guarantee production continuity at all production sites around the world (China, Pakistan, UAE and Bulgaria). Our warehouses in global logistics hubs are still working and dispatching various relief items (tents, tarpaulins, blankets, jerrycans, hygiene packages and shelter tool kits) to humanitarian organisations around the globe.

 

KEY EUROPEAN DEVELOPER AND  SUPPLIER OF HUMANITARIAN SHELTERS

Alpinter is the leading global supplier  of multipurpose hospital tents to international humanitarian organisations. Over 30 years of experience in tent development, and emergency supplies, together with our previous experience in infectious disease responses (most recently in the Kivu Ebola Epidemic) helps us to guide the efficient production and transport of support  materials to where they are needed most.

 

50,000+ TENTS  RAPIDLY DEPLOYED
