Neptune Successfully Completes Submission to U.S. FDA for Registration of its Conover, NC Facility for Production of Hand Sanitizers

Registration of the Conover facility with FDA enables the company to begin manufacturing alcohol-based hand sanitizers to help address the increased demand for these products by consumers and health care professionals. This announcement follows the recent announcement that the Company received Health Canada authorization to commercialize natural, plant-based hand sanitizer products. The Company anticipates its first shipments of hand sanitizers over the next several weeks with production volume ramping up into summer 2020.

 “We are very pleased to have fast tracked our registration with FDA and are committed to supporting our fellow citizens across North America,” said Michael Cammarata, Chief Executive Officer of Neptune.  “We have already received strong interest from retailers and have worked with our partners to successfully secure initial raw material supplies. We anticipate initial shipments over the next several weeks and intend to fully ramp up production over the coming months. Our hand sanitizers are leveraging our experience and ongoing development of plant-based household products, allowing us to quickly address this growing consumer need with a premium quality solution.”
