Anheuser-Busch (AB) has shifted the use of alcohol for beer to produce hand sanitizer. With the continued strain on resources caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, this important item is an effective tool in limiting the spread of the infectious disease.
Two versions of this product have been produced and three additional versions are being prepared. Presently, approximately 2,000 units have been produced for internal use at AB production facilities and more than 250 times as much has been donated to the Red Cross and other non-profit partners for distribution where it’s needed most.
In addition, another 133,000 units were produced in April for distribution to communities and internal use at AB facilities.
MCC, a long-time supplier for AB, rose to the challenge by supplying the initial requirement within 72 hours‘ notice. The AB team shared its goal for delivery and MCC accommodated, with printing taking place in its Wilton, NH, USA, and Mason, OH, facilities. The hand sanitizers being produced exceed the requirements as outlined by the CDC.
