Portable Personal Oxygen Cans launched in India

22 November 2018, New Delhi: Gupta Oxygen Pvt. Ltd., a pioneer in Industrial, Medical and Refrigeration gases today announced the launch of the first ever FDA approved canned Oxygen, MyOxy exclusively for the India market. MyOxy is manufactured under a valid drug license strictly adhering to Indian pharmacopoeial standards. Measuring 5.9 liters at 1200 kilopascal, MyOxy is a seamless aluminum disposable can with inbuilt mask allowing upto 100-150 inhalations per can.

At 99% pure oxygen, MyOxy helps supplement low oxygen levels in the body caused due to air pollution, high altitude and breathlessness due to various reasons such as stale air, intense workout, alcohol consumption, jet lag, stress etc.

Air contains about 21 per cent oxygen while nitrogen, carbon dioxide, argon and other gases make up the rest. In congested areas oxygen levels can fall to as low as 14 per cent with car fumes further increasing carbon monoxide and sulphur dioxide levels in the air. An essential first aid component, MyOxy acts as a quick aid in emergency situations such as breathlessness and suffocation due to high pollution levels. With as less as 4-5 inhalations, MyOxy instantly increases the oxygen levels in the body and helps restore normal function of the brain and body.

Commenting on the launch Anand Gupta, CEO, MyOxy said “Pollution continues to be a massive problem across India. Studies have shown that one out of every four premature deaths in India can be attributed to pollution. Pollution levels in Delhi/NCR are at an all-time high, with the most recent figures showing PM 2.5 levels (particulate matter) at 95. The Air Quality Index (AQI) of Delhi recently dived into the ‘unhealthy ’ category and was last recorded at 211. While, the Government is making efforts, we have unfortunately observed little progress in the state of air quality in Delhi. MyOxy is an endevaour to help people in polluted cities like Delhi/NCR realize the benefits of fresh oxygen and make it a part of their everyday life for their safety. The can has been designed in an easy to use, compact packaging that is lightweight, weighing lesser than your mobile phones, and can be stored at room temperature.”
