On the 13th of July, 2021, LifeBank launched their latest product, an oxygen plant; AirCo, in Orozo, Nasarawa state, Nigeria. LifeBank delivers medical supplies to Hospitals in Africa using technology and a multimodal distribution platform.

At the event, the LifeBank team detailed their excitement about the innovation which they believe will improve the quality of healthcare that hospitals currently provide within Nasarawa and nearby regions.

AirCo is a tech and data driven oxygen PSA plant for the people of Nasarawa and the North Central, LifeBank’s goal is to use this technical innovation to save the lives of the most vulnerable. Lack of access to much needed supplies leads to avoidable deaths.
