“Being the biggest on the market means not only prestige, but also responsibility. We are aware of the important role ethanol producers play in this difficult situation. They are protecting not only the life and health of Bulgarian and European citizens, but also the future of farmers who are contracted to supply raw materials and sell high-protein feed,” the company said.
In addition to meeting the needs of the disinfectant market, Essentica also donates alcohol to healthcare facilities across Bulgaria. As part of the efforts of the national operational headquarters, the shareholders of the company also allocated BGN 300 000 in the form of high-end pulmonary intensive care ventilators and personal protective equipment for some of Plovdiv’s hospitals in biggest need.
