Koura Donates 10,000 Inhalers to the Government of Maharashtra, India

Koura, part of Orbia Advance Corporation S.A.B. de C.V. (BMV: ORBIA*), has announced a successful donation delivery of 10,000 medical grade inhalers to the Government of Maharashtra, India.

The delivery of these donated inhalers aims to help Indian authorities maintain supplies at a time when critical need and demand has increased globally to mitigate the symptoms of COVID-19.

Patients with or without pre-existing respiratory conditions who have contracted the virus are becoming reliant on pMDIs (pressurised meter dose inhalers), as a vital method for relieving breathing difficulties.

Koura activities are essential in the current fight against the COVID-19 virus. 80% of the world’s medical grade inhalers used daily by 100 million people for asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are powered by the propellant gas manufactured by Koura.

As part of a purpose-driven community of businesses, Koura is helping to advance life around the world and help tackle pressing global challenges and this donation is part of a wider effort by Orbia in seeking to contribute to the efforts being made by authorities to fight the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic through providing essential support and solutions.
