LITTLE RIVER, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PCT LTD (OTC Pink: PCTL) is pleased to announce they are continuing their expansion efforts with additional hospital installations and have reached distributor agreements with three new entities.
“We are looking to form strategic partnerships that will help us expand our existing presence; or establish a foothold in a new territory that we’ve identified.”

Two of the new distributors will operate in the western United States (California and Utah primarily) while the third distributor is based in South Carolina, shoring up the company’s existing presence in the state.
“All of our potential distributors undergo a thorough vetting process,” says PCT Corp President Bill Prince. “We are looking to form strategic partnerships that will help us expand our existing presence; or establish a foothold in a new territory that we’ve identified.”
“The businesses we work with are looking to maintain their competitive edge as they establish their own sales and distribution channels,” says Bill Prince, explaining why the company often declines to mention their distributors by name. “There’s a lot of competition out there in the disinfection space. Especially now,” adds Prince. “We have a tremendous amount of confidence in the businesses and people we work with.”
Geographic expansion is only one of the areas the company focuses on when selecting distributors. “We’re also looking to expand industries,” says CEO Gary Grieco, adding that the new distributors operate in diverse industries, including medical supplies and equipment to industrial and commercial services.
The companies will commence fluid sales shortly, with the possibility of at least one distributor expanding to produce their own fluids down the road.
“We couldn’t be happier to welcome some new members into our distributor network,” says Grieco. “Demand for our fluids has been increasing rapidly. Expanding our distribution channels helps us to meet that demand on a large and growing scale.”
The company now has at least 10 distributors and sub-registrants for its EPA-approved solutions, in multiple states as well as internationally. They continue to vet interested applicants in their distribution pipeline and expect to continue to add to their growing network of distributors over the next several months and into the foreseeable future.
The company is also announcing a new hospital installation. Following up on an earlier release from April 14th, installation in a large NYC area hospital is expected to commence early next week through PCT’s primary healthcare distributor ACE Janitorial Services. Two additional installations are scheduled in NYC hospitals over the following weeks.
“We’re excited to be able to move forward with these installations and help these hospitals in their fight against infectious disease,” says PCT Director of Healthcare Darryl Patterson, adding that recent travel restrictions and quarantine protocols in New York State have slowed the company’s installation activities over the last two months.
“Our new rack-mounted systems are well-suited for the current healthcare environment where quicker, less labor-intensive installations are ideal,” says Patterson. “Credit is due to Stuart Emmons, P.E., Executive VP for Engineering and Research & Development and his department, who have worked tirelessly to design and build these new systems.”
The Annihilyzer® rack-mounted system provides the same capabilities of monitoring, tracking and volumes of fluid solutions produced as the flagship cabinet model. However, the rack system fits into confined spaces for greater installation flexibility and allowing even more areas within hospitals to be serviced.
“Cabinet model installations may take up to five hours to complete,” explains Patterson. “With the new rack-mounted system, installations can now be completed in under an hour.”
Additional hospital installations of PCT Corp.’s Annihilyzer® Infection Control Systems are expected to continue throughout the end of the month and into the summer.
“Our fluid sales and distribution activities have helped facilitate growth and business expansion,” explains CEO Gary Grieco. “With our hospital installations now on track as well, we’re full steam ahead on multiple fronts. It’s a very serious, but exciting time for us.”
