According to Romania ̓s PM Ludovic Orban, Romania will start the production of sanitary ventilators in partnership with French group Renault and its local subsidiary Dacia, after a US company has provided the blueprint for the equipment.
The contracts with foreign suppliers of medical ventilators have been canceled after many countries have banned the export of medical equipment, the head of the Romanian executive explained. The country had contracted 400 ventilators, but none of them reached the country, PM Orban said implying that the contracts were terminated.
,,At the moment, Ministry of Defense has designed a prototype of sanitary ventilator, which is currently being tested and I hope to start producing it as soon as possible. Also, in relation to an American company, which provided us with the manufacturing project, and with partners in Romania, such as Dacia-Renault, we are trying to start producing sanitary ventilators in Romania”, added Ludovic Orban.
