Hyundai ties up with French Air Liquide Medical Systems (ALMS) company to boost making of ventilators

Hyundai Motor India has tied up with the French Company Air Liquide Medical Systems (ALMS) for the production and supply of ventilators in Tamil Nadi and other states. France-based ALMS is present in India through a subsidiary which is based out of Chennai.

As part of the partnership, Hyundai and ALMS are looking to produce 1,000 ventilators in the first phase, and to scale up subsequently.

Hyundai Motor India MD and CEO S S Kim said in a statement that, “Ventilators and other respiratory aids are critical devices in the fight against COVID-19 and to this end, Hyundai and ALMS are working together to ensure a steady supply of ventilators in India.”

ALMS India Managing Director Anil Kumar said, “We are confident that this collaboration with Hyundai Motor India will bring about a positive shift in this battle. We are one of the very few Global companies with a dedicated R&D to manufacture ventilators in India.” 

It was also said that the number of ventilators and the process of construction is not just everything but a lot of thought is needed while building it. Medical devices such as ventilators also need to be properly inspected.
