Responding to a shortage of disinfectant solution The movement to provide "stock solution" to a sake brewer spreads at 16:41 on April 15

Due to the spread of new coronavirus infection and the lack of antiseptic solution, there is a growing trend among brewers to provide undiluted antiseptic solution to medical institutions, etc. throughout the country by increasing production capacity.

Of these, Takara Shuzo, a major brewery manufacturer in Kyoto, will increase the production of undiluted solution of disinfecting solution with alcohol content of 95 degrees at the factories currently in Matsudo and Chiba prefectures in Chiba prefecture at the request of Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. I decided.
It means providing up to 90,000 liters per month to medical institutions and elderly facilities throughout the country.

In addition, a major beverage maker, Suntory, manufactures an undiluted solution of disinfectant solution at an American whiskey factory and supplies it to local medical institutions, but it also started manufacturing at a factory in Osaka city, and medical institutions started late this month. I decided to offer it to.

In response to the lack of alcohol for disinfection, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare issued a notification on the 10th of this month that liquor with a high alcohol concentration made by a brewery maker could be used as a substitute for the disinfectant solution. The company is also embarking on the production of alternative products.
