The NCPA solicitation anticipated the annual volumes under the agreements to be $50 million. threeUV was also one of the vendors recently awarded a three-year supply agreement with The Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS) servicing over 6,000 K-12 school districts across the country.
James Tu, Chairman and CEO of Energy Focus said, “We’re excited to partner with threeUV to distribute our advanced UV-C disinfection products to government facilities and schools across the US. As the world recognizes the importance of indoor environmental safety in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, effective and constant disinfection has become both an unprecedented priority and a permanent necessity in helping to eliminate viruses, influenza, MRSA and other bacteria and pathogens that cause infectious diseases such as the common cold, hay fever, and other everyday ailments. We believe that our UV™ by Energy Focus line of products — as part of our HCL portfolio — can provide uniquely powerful and affordable solutions to not only help children and adults return to common spaces for optimal social interactions and daily activities but also bring schools and facilities to a whole new level of health and wellness performance.”
Nathan Branch, CEO of threeUV said, “Energy Focus is an important strategic partner for threeUV. Their innovative products add further depth to our portfolio of air, surface and water UV-C solutions. We have recently been awarded three-year supply agreements with the TIPS and NCPA cooperative purchasing alliances. Over 9,000 K-12 school districts buy off these contracts, and we see Energy Focus UV-C surface and air solutions as a key, differentiated offering to this customer group. We very much look forward to working with the Energy Focus team to take their products to market."
