[{"type":"text","content":"\n RNS Number : 9809R Tristel PLC 11 May 2009 \n \n\n\n\nTRISTEL plc\n('Tristel' or 'the Company')\n\nAppointment as exclusive UK distributor of mobile air- decontamination systems\n\nTristel plc (AIM: TSTL), the specialist infection and contamination control company, announces that it has been appointed as the exclusive United Kingdom distributor for the air decontamination systems of the French company, Air in Space (www.airinspace.com). \n\nAir in Space is a world leader in the design and manufacture of mobile air-decontamination systems. These devices create protected environments in hospitals that prevent hospital-acquired infections in immuno-compromised patients. The device is approved by the United States FDA for filtering out and inactivating airborne particles from the air for medical purposes.\n\nThe Air in Space technology complements Tristel's own proprietary chlorine dioxide technology to create a cohesive strategy to combat the threats of infection in hospitals. Tristel chlorine dioxide products address four of the five routes of transmission of infection in hospitals - instruments, surfaces, water and skin - and in combination with the Air in Space products can now also combat the fifth route of infection transmission: by air-borne micro organism. For example, the Air in Space technology has been validated to eradicate completely the airborne flu virus H5N2, a surrogate for H1N1 (Swine flu). \n\nThe distribution agreement has a term of five years. Whilst the Company does not expect the arrangement to impact the current year financial results, it anticipates that the addition of the Air in Space products to its existing portfolio will contribute significantly to sales and profit growth in future years.\n\n \nContacts:\n\n\n\n\n\nTristel plc \n\n\nTel: 01638 721 500\n\n\n\n\nPaul Swinney, Chief Executive\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaniel Stewart & Company Plc\n\n\nTel: 020 7776 6550\n\n\n\n\nGraham Webster/Oliver Rigby\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWalbrook PR Ltd\n\n\nTel: 020 7933 8788\n\n\n\n\nBen Knowles\n\n\nMob: 07900 346 978\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\[email protected]\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Tristel\n\nTristel plc has its h...
