INEOS has started production of one million hand sanitisers at a plant near Middlesbrough, to help front line medical and care services fight covid-19.
The free hand sanitisers will be issued to the NHS in a bid to curb a supply shortage across the UK and Europe.
The sanitiser is being developed is as per World Health Organization standards and production is likely to be extended to meet wider demand.
A second German sister plant is also under construction while a third plant in France is to follow suit in coming weeks.
