TORONTO, April 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - 

Kontrol Technologies Corp.

a leader in smart buildings and cities through IoT, Cloud and SaaS technology, is pleased to announce the addition of Danby Appliances ("Danby") to its BioCloud manufacturing team and a manufacturing strategic partnership between Kontrol, OES Inc. ("OES") and Danby. The strategic partnership will mean that OES will handle global supply chain, project engineering and production of the electronic components and Danby will focus on final assembly and scaling production.

"We continue to add to the infrastructure essential to build BioCloud into a global solution for real-time viral detection," says Paul Ghezzi, CEO Kontrol. "We're pleased to welcome Danby, one of Canada's leading manufacturers, to the team. It's exciting to have them on-board and part of the plan to mass produce BioCloud in Ontario."

Danby is a Canadian company with a long history of bringing innovative products to market.  Danby's product manufacturing experience, existing infrastructure in Ontario, and recent success in the mass production of ventilators through the Canadian Ventilator Program will compliment OES' expertise in product engineering and complex electronic manufacturing. 

"We're thrilled to partner with Jim Estill and his team at Danby, it's an exciting made-in-Ontario manufacturing partnership," says Jeff Stewart, CEO of OES Inc. "Our focus has always been centered on rapid prototype development through product launch and initial manufacturing of the technology. With the anticipated global demand for BioCloud, we knew partnering with another manufacturer experienced in large scale product assembly with existing infrastructure in Ontario to support quick ramp up would be important. "

"We are delighted to have been selected by Kontrol and OES as a strategic partner and to be participating in the production of this innovative and much needed technology," says Jim Estill, CEO Danby.

You don't keep expanding manufacturing capabilities if you don't think the sales volume will be there. Another positive sign of things to come.

It is weird that KNR would have its manufacturer comment on another manufacturer. I find this NR ho-hum with the elephant in the room. Come on KNR, why didn't you take this opportunity to add the information that is really important? And what does this mean, OES could not handle the assembly of 10,000 monthly units? Nothing but more questions.

This is why I have a little respect for you.  While wearing your Pom Pom's, you still think outside the box unlike these other mindless sheep.  A month ago, you guys were bashing me.  Saying I'm an i###t and I do not know what I'm talking about.  How great OES is and I should go to their building, etc, etc. While I never once said anything negative about them, just

So you're saying your fellow pumpers/you did not know what they were talking about in the past???  You realize there's months of comments on this board that clearly show your speaking nothing but BS. You're the biggest i###t of them all.  What about sales???  Not important in your eyes???  Does not matter who makes them when sales are under 1000 units.

Exactly, Wilander/CMT are mindless sheep with Pom Pom's. I'm thinking maybe this was an important step in the right direction, in order to secure the 800k.  Which is a good thing IMO, as more individuals in the general public have heard of Danby.  Brings more credibility to the whole process.  Still does not change the fact a company needs sales in order to make money
