Tests performed on Şişecam's Antimicrobial V-Block Technology, by the laboratories located in Turkey and authorized by the Ministry of Health and, have been successfully completed. The technology has been identified as effective against the microorganisms listed below including coronavirus*, and official registration and permit processes for the production and sales of the products with V-Block Technology have been finalized as of 15 December 2020. Antimicrobial V-Block Technology will primarily be applied on a selected group of beverage and tableware business line products and mass production phase will be started in the beginning of 2021. In the first phase, 10% of the total glassware business segment production capacity is planned to be allocated. V-Block Technology applied glassware products will begin to be sold at retail sale points and through Horeca (hotel-restaurant-café) and B2B channels in our domestic market. The possibility to manufacture products with V-Block Technology in Glassware facilities located outside Turkey, initially in our Bulgaria plant, is also evaluated. Sale of those products in the region where they are produced and/or outside geographies will be planned following the completion of relevant legal processes. For the upcoming period, there are further plans to apply the technology to other glass production-oriented businesses lines and to launch V-Block Technology applied products upon the granting of legal permits. Patent application related to V-Block Technology and application method has been made on 3 July 2020.
