Panasonic continues to advocate cleaner and fresher air for life, pursuant to its mission and vision as a company. Recently, the Panasonic partnered with the Far Eastern University – Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation (FEU-NRMF) in Novaliches, Quezon City via a donation in the form of nanoeTM X-equipped Panasonic Air Purifiers, as well as Panasonic Portable nanoeTM X Generators for the university’s use in its medical schools.
It has always been Panasonic’s goal to provide cleaner and quality air for the community. And in this time of need, the installation of Panasonic’s nanoeTM X technology, through the different avenues it has been able to explore, not only turned the company’s vision into a reality but has been amplifying the safety and welfare of people affected by the novel coronavirus in high-traffic areas including vaccination sites, hospitals, and schools. This initiative is on par with Panasonic’s agenda of expanding their current program this 2022 to be of assistance to students, most especially in the medical field, that will be instrumental in the future of the health care system of the Philippines.
Moreover, these groundbreaking, state-of-the-art technologies are designed and have been verified to have inhibitory effects on airborne and adhered viruses, including the novel coronavirus. Students, teachers, and staff members of FEU-NRMF can now breathe a sigh of relief, with the assurance of another layer of protection from the virus, especially now in the event that face-to-face classes are nearing its resumption.
Previous Panasonic excursions included partnerships with different local city government units to disseminate the technology they have, including donations to Mandaluyong City, Makati City, Malabon City, Taguig City, Quezon City, and the Philippine General Hospital (PGH).
In attendance at FEU-NRMF’s Alfonso Hall for the short turnover ceremony held last 10 December 2021 included General Manager of Life Solutions and Panasonic Country Head, Yosuke Tanaka, Communications and Product Planning Manager of Panasonic Air Conditioning Philippines (PACPH), Francis Serrato, FEU-NRMF Chief Operating Officer, Juan Enrique Reyes, Dr. Magdalena Natividad, Dr. Nolan Pecho, and other FEU-NRMF department heads, staff, and medical students, who all showed exuberance, appreciation, and interest in learning more about the aforementioned nanoeTM X technology.
“It is a great honor for Panasonic to be sharing our technology. It is our pride and joy to make nanoeTM X technology accessible in this prestigious university and give everyone the opportunity to experience quality air for life so you can focus on your craft as future medical professionals,” shared Yosuke Tanaka in a short message to students and staff present at the event.
A total of 16 Panasonic nanoeTM X air purifiers and 18 Panasonic Portable nanoeTM X Generators were donated. Classrooms equipped with nanoeTM X products are identifiable through Panasonic’s nanoeTM X safety seal sticker. With this contribution, the company hopes for improved protection in its classrooms in time for the resumption of face-to-face classes. Freebies such as nanoeTM X face masks, fans, and pillows, were also given to students in attendance.
Francis Serrato, Communications and Product Planning Manager of Panasonic Air Conditioning Philippines (PACPH) held a short lecture to further educate everyone in attendance on the science behind the brand’s nanoeTM X technology.
“Panasonic has leveraged the power of hydroxyl radicals contained in water to purify the air around us. Proven by its effectiveness on four novel coronaviruses variants, Alpha, Beta, Gama, and Delta, the assurance of breathing in clean air when these products are around is something we, in Panasonic, are glad to share.”
During the event, some students were also asked how they feel about the installation of the nanoeTM X technology on their school premises. Katrina Pacuan, a 3rd-year medical technology student, said, “It’s easier to breath now especially if you have this kind of technology that protects you from harmful viruses.”
A nursing student also shared his thoughts, “I’m so excited for face-to-face classes to resume because now we have nanoeTM X technology to protect us from viruses and assure us of our safety and welfare.”
