Kontrol $KNR $KNR.ca $KNR.c $KNRLF Provides BioCloud Manufacturing Capacity Update $LXG

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:51 AM on Wednesday, March 31st, 2021
  • Received up to $2 Million in funding from the Ontario Together Fund to accelerate commercial production of the BioCloud units.
  • To date $1.2 Million has been received from the Ontario Together Fund. In order to receive the final balance of $800,000 certain conditions are required to be met, which includes the increase of manufacturing capacity to 20,000 units per month.
  • Confirming that it has met the conditions precedent for the final $800,000 in funding

TORONTO , March 31, 2021 – Kontrol Technologies Corp. (CSE: KNR) (OTCQB: KNRLF) (FSE: 1K8) (” Kontrol Technologies ” or ” Kontrol ” or ” Company “) is pleased to provide an update on its manufacturing capacity as it relates to various milestones for the Ontario Together Fund.

As a follow up to the press release dated February 4 th , 2021, CEM Specialties Inc. (” CEMSI “), a wholly owned subsidiary of Kontrol Technologies, received up to $2 Million in funding from the Ontario Together Fund to accelerate commercial production of the BioCloud units. To date $1.2 Million has been received from the Ontario Together Fund. In order to receive the final balance of $800,000 certain conditions are required to be met,  which includes the increase of manufacturing capacity to 20,000 units per month.

The Company will deliver a final package to the Ontario Together Fund in the next week, confirming that it has met the conditions precedent for the final $800,000 in funding, including the required manufacturing capacity. Manufacturing capacity is the ability to manufacture a certain number of units per month and is not a sales forecast. The final $800,000 funding balance is issued at the discretion of the Ontario Together Fund following the Company’s submission.

“As we initiated commercial production, we have made continuous improvements to the manufacturing of BioCloud,” says Paul Ghezzi , CEO of Kontrol. “Some of these improvements relate to a reduction in sizing of internal systems, reduction of electronic boards and overall streamlining of installation. This is part of the normal process of moving from individual prototypes to commercial production. We have done so in a short period of time with great effort from the entire team.”

“We have made great progress with BioCloud manufacturing,” says Jeff Stewart , CEO of OES Inc. “Through our internal capacity and the addition of manufacturing capacity with our Ontario based strategic manufacturing partners we are pleased to be able to deliver up to 20,000 units per month in manufacturing capacity.”

Global Supply Chain

Currently the global supply chain for the majority of components used in the manufacturing of BioCloud appears to be stabilizing. However, lead times on electronic components and semi-conductors, which are subject to competition from the automotive and mobile industry, have been a challenge. The Company reviews the global supply chain with its manufacturing partner OES Inc. on a routine basis. The Company has no control over potential delays and lead times in the global supply chain.

“I am proud of our team which has worked tirelessly to design and develop a technology with the primary goal of assisting in the reduction of transmittance of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its variants through earlier detection,” says Gary Saunders , President of Kontrol BioCloud. “In addition to vaccines, technologies which can provide early alerting systems are important to help us create safer spaces and get back to normal across the global economy.”

BioCloud Reagent and Antibodies

The BioCloud unit operates to detect SARS-CoV-2, and other viruses, bacteria and fungi from the air through the use of continuous air sampling and a biological response process. The primary component which makes up the BioCloud proprietary reagent is a specifically formulated combination of antibodies. The antibodies, which are purchased from third party manufacturers, are combined, and tested by independent labs for the reaction to and detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

The Company’s patented antibody cooling chamber utilizes a Peltier element technology to ensure accurate and controlled temperatures are maintained for the entire life cycle of the antibodies. In addition, the Company deploys refrigerated packaging to ensure a specific temperature range is maintained during transportation and shipping of its reagent and antibodies.

The Company continues to review various antibodies from third party manufacturers with the goal to reduce the costs of BioCloud consumables and create a large supply pool to choose from as part of its overall supply chain management.

  • On any given day, during the NCIB, Kontrol may only purchase up to 69,500 common shares, which is equivalent to 25% of the Average Daily Trading Volume of 278,000 calculated based on the trading volumes on the CSE over the past 12 months and may purchase once per calendar week, in a block trade, a greater number of Common Shares.

TORONTO , March 24, 2021 – Kontrol Technologies Corp. (CSE: KNR) (OTCQB: KNRLF) (FSE: 1K8) (” Kontrol Technologies ” or ” Kontrol ” or ” Company “) is pleased to announce today that it intends to implement a normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) through the facilities of the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) or alternative trading systems.

Pursuant to the NCIB, Kontrol may purchase, from time to time, over a period of 12 months starting March 25, 2021 and ending March 25, 2022 , up to 2,061,236 common shares (approx. 5% of its common shares issued and outstanding as of March 24, 2021 ). As of March 24, 2021 , there were 41,224,731 common shares of Kontrol issued and outstanding. On any given day, during the NCIB, Kontrol may only purchase up to 69,500 common shares, which is equivalent to 25% of the Average Daily Trading Volume of 278,000 calculated based on the trading volumes on the CSE over the past 12 months and may purchase once per calendar week, in a block trade, a greater number of Common Shares.

  • “We understand the value and importance of sharing BioCloud units in operation across various customer applications,” says Paul Ghezzi, CEO of Kontrol.

TORONTO, ON / February 23, 2021 / Kontrol Technologies Corp. (CSE:KNR) (OTCQB:KNRLF) (FSE:1K8) (“Kontrol Technologies” or “Kontrol” or “Company“) is pleased to announce that it plans to provide real-time demonstration of BioCloud units in operation in various customer and/or pilot customer (“customer”) applications. On a case-by-case basis and subject to the required customer approval the Company will provide video access and any relevant operating data.

“We understand the value and importance of sharing BioCloud units in operation across various customer applications,” says Paul Ghezzi, CEO of Kontrol. “To the extent that we have customer approval we will also share operating data with respect to specific applications. Where we are unable to provide specific operating access to a customer application, we will seek to aggregate and showcase that data in a manner which meets any privacy constraints.”

The Company will work with its customers to share photos and videos of the BioCloud units in operation and share that content. In certain cases, a customer pilot may be restricted from being shared based on the customer’s requirements for non-disclosure. Over the coming weeks the Company anticipates sharing multiple demonstrations of BioCloud in operation.

Production Improvement

The Company has been working with its contract manufacturing partners to enhance the production design of BioCloud with a specific emphasis on reducing the number of circuit boards. The number of circuit boards has been reduced to 5 starting from an initial prototype design of 11. These improvements are considered part of the normal course of moving from prototype to scale production. The reduction in circuit boards will also provide an opportunity to lower manufacturing costs in the future.

Update to Distribution Model

The Company currently has 11 total distributors and 3 sales referral agreements. The sales referral agreements relate to the China and Middle East markets. The sales referral agreements are non-exclusive in nature. The Company has chosen to limit the number of Canadian non-exclusive distribution agreements, from its original plans, given its view that the Canadian market has sufficient distributors in place. The Company is currently negotiating multiple new potential agreements for the USA and the Middle East on a non-exclusive basis.
