Emerald Organic Products Launches Emerald Shield Division Alongside Nationwide Reopening and ‘Second Wave’ of Coronavirus

Emerald Shield to Offer Hypochlorous Acid Disinfection Tunnels, Sanitization Products, and More

Holbrook, New York, June 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Emerald Organic Products, Inc. (OTC: EMOR) (the “Company”, "Emerald Organic", or "Emerald Organic Products"), a diversified health sciences company, is pleased to announce the launch of Emerald Shield, an all-encompassing solution developed to facilitate necessary initiatives in a safety-conscious post-COVID-19 world. With a mission to support communities, companies, and municipalities across the United States, Emerald Shield’s key focus areas are its technologically-driven public safety solutions, and transformative health and wellness platforms.

As communities reopen, businesses and government agencies are actively seeking effective ways to keep the state safe by working with companies like Emerald Shield who specialize in sanitizing solutions.   

“We have seen overwhelming interest from all industry sectors countrywide,” commented Ken Greenberg, Executive Vice President. “Restaurants, retailers and schools are just some of the businesses knocking on our door. People are eager for life to resume, yet many are still anxious. We believe what we offer can help restore community confidence in a visible, viable and responsible way.”

Emerald Shield’s Sanitizing Clean Booths provide a combination of the latest in technology and safety standards to bring businesses a cost-effective solution to protect both customers and staff. Placed at entrances, an automated infrared monitor first checks body temperature. Super-fine misters then lightly spray individuals in 
just a few seconds with an atomized solution containing Hypochlorous acid (“HOCl”), a time-tested, Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) approved ingredient for use in antimicrobial formulations such as food-contact surface sanitizing solutions. Furthermore, Hypochlorous acid is included in the May 2020 Interim guidance directive from the World Health Organization (“WHO”) titled  “Cleaning and disinfection of environmental surfaces in the context of COVID-19.” 

“HOCl has long been used in a wide variety of food and beverage processing as well as medical applications, leaving no sticky residue whatsoever,” added Michael Berg, Chief Development Officer of Emerald Organic Products. 

Greenberg notes, "Multiple layers of protection are required to fight coronavirus; different methods need to work  in tandem, synergistically.  In addition to Sanitizing Clean Booths,  Emerald Shield offers a wide variety of solutions and services to help businesses and communities reopen safely.”
