BioCloud Wall Unit Game Changer In Fight To Manage Pandemic

  • Launched BioCloud, an unobtrusive wall-mounted technology which detects the presence of COVID-19 in the air and triggers an alert system to provide real time notifications of the pathogen’s presence to facility managers, with the aim of allowing outbreaks to be contained before they occur
  • Immediate applications in schools, hospitals, long term care facilities and mass transit vehicles including planes, trains and buses represent a game changer in the fight against COVID-19
  • “There’s no doubt in my mind that this technology can quickly and effectively detect an array of airborne pathogens, including the virus that causes COVID-19. Our results are absolutely conclusive,” confirmed Dr. Heinrichs

TORONTO, Sept. 11, 2020 – Kontrol Energy Corporation, a Canadian public Company (CSE: KNR) (OTCQB: KNRLF), has launched BioCloud, an unobtrusive wall-mounted technology which detects the presence of COVID-19 in the air and triggers an alert system to provide real time notifications of the pathogen’s presence to facility managers, with the aim of allowing outbreaks to be contained before they occur.

Immediate applications in schools, hospitals, long term care facilities and mass transit vehicles including planes, trains and buses represent a game changer in the fight against COVID-19.

“There is a critical need for technology that can provide us with assurances that the workplaces, schools, healthcare environments and other spaces we physically occupy are safe and free of infectious disease. Today, we have that in BioCloud,” said Paul Ghezzi, Chief Executive Officer of Kontrol. “Our team has been working day and night since the onset of the pandemic to bring this exciting technology to market. It will be an invaluable tool to enhance the existing system of individual testing and contact tracing.”

This breakthrough announcement comes after extensive and independent lab testing in tandem with some of the country’s foremost experts in the field, including Dr. David Heinrichs, Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at Western University.

“There’s no doubt in my mind that this technology can quickly and effectively detect an array of airborne pathogens, including the virus that causes COVID-19. Our results are absolutely conclusive,” confirmed Dr. Heinrichs. 

With COVID-19 cases expected to spike across the country this fall and into the winter season, BioCloud commercialization and distribution plans are in high gear.

Gary Saunders, VP of Kontrol, confirms that supply chains for the technology are already prepped to deliver tens of thousands of units monthly.

“We are thrilled to have our hard work validated in the lab with a fully-tested detection chamber that can be moved quickly to market. We anticipate having the first working units in Canadian schools by November of this year,” said  Saunders. “We’re currently on track to have the required manufacturing capability to meet the production volumes of up to 20,000 BioCloud units per month.”

With the breakthrough technology coming on the heels of the Federal Government’s $2 billion dollar announcement to help schools reopen and operate safely, BioCloud aims to play a vital role in the education sector and beyond.

“We can now detect the virus and assess the effectiveness of HVAC systems by continuously sampling air quality in real-time. As a father and Independent School board member, I understand how this technology can help bring some much needed peace of mind to parents who want to ensure the safety and well being of their kids and loved ones,” added Ghezzi. “BioCloud will not just monitor air quality, it seeks to create the conditions for Canadians to safely and confidently return to their jobs and their schools.” 

Kontrol Energy Corp estimates a $12,000 USD per unit cost for BioCloud based on supply chain components. The detection chamber is fully replaceable after it comes in contact with the SARS-CoV-2 virus and can be disposed of safely and replaced for continuous use.

Dr. Jimmy D. Dikeakos, Ph.D

This technology will allow for measurement of many different viruses, bacteria, and fungi beyond the immediate need for the virus that causes COVID-19.”

Dr. David Heinrichs, Ph.D

TORONTO, ON / September 10, 2020 / Kontrol Energy Corp. (CSE:KNR)(OTCQB:KNRLF)(FSE:1K8) (“Kontrol” or “Company“) is pleased to provide an update on its Kontrol BioCloud (or “BioCloud“) technology.

Lab Testing with Live Virus

Kontrol has received positive lab results for BioCloud testing against the live virus that causes COVID-19. This positive result follows two successful tests against the dormant SARS-CoV-2 virus (see press release dated August 10th, 2020 and press release dated August 27th, 2020).

“We are very pleased that through a methodical approach we have been able to successfully test our technology with the live virus causing COVID-19 and will turn our focus to commercialization of BioCloud,” says Paul Ghezzi, CEO of Kontrol. “It has been a long journey to get to this point since the initial concept design in March 2020 and through the great efforts of our team we look forward to delivering a safe space technology solution.”

Commercialization

Kontrol will begin the commercialization process of BioCloud by initiating an application to the CSA Group. CSA is a leader in Standards Development and in Testing, Inspection and Certification around the world including Canada, the U.S., Europe and Asia. The CSA registered mark shows that a product has been independently tested and certified to meet recognized standards for safety or performance. Kontrol anticipates that a CSA approval can take from 30 to 45 days to complete and Kontrol has a history of working with CSA on various air quality and emission products. During the process of CSA approval, Kontrol will seek to establish lower detection limits of the COVID-19 virus. Lower detection limit specifications are part of the commercial specifications that Kontrol will deliver for a fully commercialized product.

We are very pleased to start the process of sharing our technology with the market through the commencement of commercialization,” says Gary Saunders, VP of Kontrol. “We want to thank our lab partners for all of their expertise and dedication. The lab procedures involved significant planning and preparation to execute meticulous testing against the live COVID-19 virus. We look forward to sharing our results with all levels of Government in the coming days and weeks ahead.”

  • Kontrol continues to focus on strengthening its Balance Sheet. The Company’s cash position at the end of Q2 is approximately $1.8 Million
  • During the second quarter of 2020 the Company announced the commencement of a non-brokered private placement (with an exchange of units) of up to $5.8 million principal amount 8% unsecured (and non-convertible) debentures maturing on October 31, 2022
  • Company is developing its BioCloud technology and has a achieved a number of significant milestones, including the initial funding from the Government, positive testing of the detection mechanism, and positive testing of the BioCloud fully operational prototype.

TORONTO, ON / August 31, 2020 / Kontrol Energy Corp. (CSE:KNR)(OTCQB:KNRLF)(FSE:1K8) (“Kontrol” or “Company”) a leader in the energy efficiency sector through IoT, Cloud and SaaS technology announces its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

A complete set of Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis will be filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) on August 31, 2020. A call to discuss the financial results has been scheduled for Monday, August 31, 2020 at 4:30pm (EST). See details below.

“In Q2 2020 we were able to navigate the complex business challenges presented by COVID-19 and make important strategic advances while maintaining positive EBITDA and cash flow from operations,” says Paul Ghezzi, CEO. “This environment has made it challenging to gain access to customer sites for projects; however, our recurring revenue and service platform have performed very well. In addition, we initiated the development of the Kontrol BioCloud, a new technology designed to detect and alert for the COVID-19 virus. We continue to fund all BioCloud development through internal cash generation. Kontrol does not need to raise capital to operate its business.”

Subsequent to the second quarter end, the Company completed the acquisition of New Found Air (“NFA”) – a building service and solutions company. The operations of NFA are in the process of being merged with Kontrol’s existing platform. NFA expands Kontrol’s building footprint and provides an established customer base with a potential significant cross-selling platform for Kontrol’s smart building technology.

Q2 2020 Financial Summary

Strengthened Financial Position

Kontrol continues to focus on strengthening its Balance Sheet. The Company’s cash position at the end of Q2 is approximately $1.8 Million. During the second quarter of 2020 the Company announced the commencement of a non-brokered private placement (with an exchange of units) of up to $5.8 million principal amount 8% unsecured (and non-convertible) debentures maturing on October 31, 2022. The Company intends to allocate up to $5.8 million of the units for issuance to holders of 2020 debenture units who wish to exchange their 2020 debenture units for units in the offering. The Company anticipates that the majority of unitholders will exchange their units in the months of September and October.

The Company closed the first tranche of non-brokered private placement for 2023 Convertible Debenture Proceeds in the second quarter of net $1.05 million and an additional approximate $900,000 subsequent to the second quarter. The completion of the financing was primarily allocated to the closing of the NFA acquisition

FY 2020 Outlook

The Company continues to strategically focus on the growth of its recurring revenues. With the recently completed acquisition of NFA and the existing customer base, approximately 30% of all revenues are now recurring. The Company’s goal is to drive recurring revenues towards 50% of all total revenues by the end of 2021.

While there appears to be a general improvement with site access to customer facilities there is also ongoing uncertainty presented by COVID-19 travel restrictions and self-quarantine. These conditions make it difficult to forecast project revenues and provide any guidance. Any previous guidance will be retracted, and the Company will continue to provide ongoing reporting and announce larger project revenues as they are generated.

Kontrol BioCloud

The Company is developing its BioCloud technology and has a achieved a number of significant milestones, including the initial funding from the Government, positive testing of the detection mechanism, and positive testing of the BioCloud fully operational prototype. The Company seeks to complete testing with the live COVID-19 virus during the week of August 31 and will provide those results when available. The Company’s objective is to have BioCloud commercially available to potential customers in 2020. There is no assurance that the Company can achieve this internal goal.

About Kontrol BioCloud

BioCloud is a real-time analyzer developed to detect airborne viruses. It has been designed to operate as a safe space technology by sampling the air quality over time. With a proprietary detection chamber that can be replaced as needed, viruses are detected, and an alert system is created in the Cloud or over local intranet. BioCloud has been designed for spaces where individuals gather including classrooms, retirement homes, hospitals, mass transportation and others. It can be an important technology which supports the entire system of individual testing and contact tracing.

Kontrol’s $KNR.ca #COVID19 Technology Prototype Receives Positive Lab Test Results $SNE $MSFT $HON $GOOGL $QCOM $SONA.ca

  • Announced that the Kontrol BioCloud fully functioning prototype was able to operate in real-time and has received positive lab test results
  • “Following lab testing, we have demonstrated that our fully operating prototype, previously announced on August 10, 2020, can detect COVID-19 specific components in air samples under a controlled experiment,” says Paul Ghezzi, Chief Executive Officer of Kontrol
  • The company has now tested both its proprietary detection chamber as announced on August 19, 2020 and its fully operating prototype
  • Following testing with the live COVID-19 virus, the Company anticipates that it will be in a position to move to commercialization and production of operating units shortly thereafter

TORONTO, ON / August 27, 2020 / Kontrol Energy Corp. (CSE:KNR)(OTCQB:KNRLF)(FSE:1K8) (“Kontrol” or “Company“) is pleased to announce that the Kontrol BioCloud (or “BioCloud“) fully functioning prototype was able to operate in real-time and has received positive lab test results.

“Following lab testing, we have demonstrated that our fully operating prototype, previously announced on August 10, 2020, can detect COVID-19 specific components in air samples under a controlled experiment,” says Paul Ghezzi, Chief Executive Officer of Kontrol. “This was a critical milestone that we achieved as it ensures the safety and operating capability of BioCloud and we can now move quickly to testing against the live aerosolized COVID-19 virus. We remain on track with achieving our specific milestones and anticipate live COVID-19 virus testing during the week of August 31.”

The controlled testing was conducted by the lab of independent consultant, Dr. David Heinrichs, PhD (Heinrichs Laboratory) – experts in the study of Microbiology and Immunology.

Next Major Milestones

The company has now tested both its proprietary detection chamber as announced on August 19, 2020 and its fully operating prototype. Following testing with the live COVID-19 virus, the Company anticipates that it will be in a position to move to commercialization and production of operating units shortly thereafter.

We continue to fund all BioCloud technology development through internal cash generation and Kontrol will not raise capital to complete testing and pre-commercialization work.

When testing against the live COVID-19 virus the Company seeks to establish the lower detection limits of BioCloud and set final parameters for applications based on room size and number of individuals. These lower detection limits will be part of commercialization specifications.

Commercialization Plans

“We are excited to have a working prototype and a successful result given all the hard work that has gone into the BioCloud,” says Gary Saunders VP of Kontrol. “We have sourced all the components required for commercialization and have our supply chain ready to go. The Canadian Government has recently announced $2 billion in federal funding to help schools reopen safely. BioCloud has the potential to be an important tool in creating safe spaces by seeking to detect for the virus and assessing the effectiveness of HVAC system improvements by continuously sampling air in real-time.”

The Company anticipates a selling price in the range of $12,000 US per BioCloud unit based on the current supply chain components. The detection chamber is replaceable and represents a potential secondary source of commercialized revenue for Kontrol. Any time the detection chamber comes into contact with the COVID virus it must be disposed of safely and replaced.

New Applications beyond COVID-19

During testing the Company has determined that BioCloud has the capability to detect other airborne viruses in addition to COVID-19. This determination was made based on working with the independent lab consultants and a review of the detection mechanism and specifications. While COVID-19 is the most pressing concern for creating safe spaces, other airborne viruses may have similar characteristics that BioCloud may be able to detect.

About Kontrol BioCloud

BioCloud is a real-time analyzer designed to detect airborne viruses. It has been designed to operate as a safe space technology by sampling the air quality over time. With a proprietary detection chamber that can be replaced as needed, viruses are detected, and an alert system is created in the Cloud or over local intranet. BioCloud has been designed for spaces where individuals gather including classrooms, retirement homes, hospitals, mass transportation and others. It can be an important technology which supports the entire system of individual testing and contact tracing.

The Company is not making any express or implied claims that its product has the ability to eliminate, cure or contain the COVID-19 (or SARS-2 Coronavirus) at this time.

Kontrol BioCloud®

  • Provides an update on the timing of the next stage of testing for the Kontrol BioCloud® analyzer
  • Kontrol has designed BioCloud with a replaceable detection mechanism. Kontrol will seek to patent the detection mechanism following the next stage of testing
  • Company will also analyze the best method of replacing and disposing of the detection mechanism after it comes into contact with COVID-19
  • The detection mechanism has been built to be an ongoing replaceable component of the BioCloud technology

TORONTO, ON / August 19, 2020 / Kontrol Energy Corp. (CSE:KNR)(OTCQB:KNRLF)(FSE:1K8) (“Kontrol” or “Company“) is pleased to provide an update on the timing of the next stage of testing for the Kontrol BioCloud® analyzer (“BioCloud“).

For more than a decade, through its operating subsidiaries, Kontrol has been providing air quality testing and continuous emission monitoring across hundreds of industrial facilities in Canada and the USA. BioCloud represents an extension and further innovation of an existing air quality technology and solution platform which Kontrol currently provides to its customers.

“We are drawing on our extensive experience in air quality and emission monitoring for specific particulate analysis and measurement and using similar technology to detect for COVID-19 in the air,” says Paul Ghezzi, CEO of Kontrol. “Over the past 6 months, we have secured government funding, established partnerships with virology experts, and developed a proprietary COVID-19 detection chamber. Our initial lab results and interest from potential customers and prospects give us the confidence that we are developing a solution which the market demands. We look forward to providing more details as we continue BioCloud’s development.”

Next Stage of Testing

Live COVID-19 virus testing will commence on August 19th, 2020 and is expected to continue until the end of the month. The testing will focus on the capability of the working BioCloud prototype to sample the COVID-19 virus in aerosol form and seek to establish the lower detection limits that can be achieved. Kontrol will publish the results following the testing.

Detection Mechanism

Kontrol has designed BioCloud with a replaceable detection mechanism. Kontrol will seek to patent the detection mechanism following the next stage of testing. Kontrol will also analyze the best method of replacing and disposing of the detection mechanism after it comes into contact with COVID-19. The detection mechanism has been built to be an ongoing replaceable component of the BioCloud technology.

“BioCloud will seek to sample the air over-time on a continuous basis, which is similar to how we currently test for air quality in industrial facilities. Applications for BioCloud will be focused initially on classrooms, hospitals, long-term care homes, and mass transportation.” said Gary Saunders, Kontrol’s Vice President.

Pre-Commercialization Prototypes

Kontrol has built one operating prototype and is in the process of completing four additional pre-commercialization prototypes. These prototypes will be made available for lab testing and also provide Kontrol with greater certainty for developing its supply chain for parts and materials for potential future commercialization. The additional four prototypes will be completed prior to August 31st, 2020.

The Company is not making any express or implied claims that its product has the ability to eliminate, cure or contain the Covid-19 (or SARS-2 Coronavirus) at this time.
