George Oliver, Johnson Controls chairman and CEO, has reaffirmed that the company is delivering ‘essential products, services and personnel’ during the COVID-19 pandemic
“At times like these, it is critically important to reach out and let people know that we are here and that we continue to help hospitals, pharmacies and other essential businesses as needed to continue their operations,” said Oliver.
Among the critical building infrastructure offerings Johnson Controls provides are:
HVAC – The products are essential to hospitals and operating rooms and are necessary to continue to run almost all of the critical infrastructure sectors. Properly ventilated buildings are critical to improve air quality and prevent the spread of disease.
Industrial Refrigeration – The equipment is essential in many critical industries, from food and beverage processing to the petrochemical industries.
Security – The security systems are even more critical now to ensure essential facilities are safe and secure. Security cameras, access control and other security systems are vital to protect people and infrastructure.
Fire – The fire systems and services must be maintained to keep people and property safe, from fire detection products through sprinkler systems and portable fire extinguishing equipment.
“As a global company, we have been addressing this crisis from the very start and we are proud of our frontline leadership responding in every corner of the world to support our customers,” said Oliver. These are tough times, but the notes from first responders, nurses and all those serving on the frontline are extremely motivating. In periods of crisis there are always stories of incredible resilience.”
