The COVID-19 pandemic is seeing many alcohol brands create hand sanitizers to help boost global supply, which is seeing new products like the Air Co. Hand Sanitizer be introduced. The hand sanitizer is made in the same manner as the brand's vodka, which consists of distilling CO2 from the atmosphere in order to create ethanol that can then be used for sanitization purposes. The product is thus 70% ethanol and ideal for killing pathogens that could be found on the hands to help people stay germ-free between regular hand washings.
The Air Co. Hand Sanitizer is a carbon-negative product, and comes as one of a growing number of initiatives from brands to help offer support for healthcare workers and consumers alike in this time of need.
