EU & Hong Kong FlatPack Patent Issued


NanoLogix is extremely pleased to announce the patent issuance on 7 June 2017 in the EU and Hong Kong for their unique and exclusively licensed petri plate plate packaging system known as the FlatPack. The FlatPack, a method of vacuum-packing of petri plates in an inert gas environment, enables long term storage of many types of petri plates at room temperature for two years or more without deterioration of the nutrient agar contained in the filled plates. Standard storage times and conditions for competitors' petri plates are normally three months in a refrigerated environment. The potential economic impact of long term high quality non-refrigerated agar-filled petri plates is significant, with daily use of agar-filled petri plates worldwide numbering in the millions and access to both guaranteed-quality agar plates and dependable refrigeration for storage varying widely from area to area.

NanoLogix' intention is to register and validate the patent in most of the 40 EU member nations and patent treaty affiliates in addition to Hong Kong. Following that process, NanoLogix intends to seek licencee(s) for manufacturing and marketing for the those areas.

For reference: The patent process from the date of filing to issuance took five years and two months
