Aerocrine vice president international sales and UK general manager David Plotts said as the company continues the roll out of its new product, NIOX VERO in the UK and Ireland; it is delighted to be partnering with Healthcare 21.
"This deal is part of Aerocrine’s strategy of substantially growing the European business in a cost-efficient manner," Plotts added.
