Calmark receives order from Vietnam
Calmark Sweden AB (publ) announces today that an order for 40 instruments and 3,000 test cassettes has been received from the Company's distributor in Vietnam, MTTS Co., Ltd, relating to the Calmark Neo-Bilirubin product. The instrument, POC- Analyzer Neo, has obtained registration in the country as disclosed on August 10. The test cassettes for bilirubin are expected to be registered shortly. Today’s order is of less economic importance, but highly significant in a launch perspective.
The units with associated test cassettes will be distributed to end customers in the southern, central, and northern regions of Vietnam in accordance with the implementation plan. The order will be delivered to the distributor once the test cassettes are registered with the Vietnamese equivalent of the Swedish Medical Products Agency, which the distributor expects will happen shortly.
“I am more than thrilled that our distributor has embraced the value of the product and is keen to quickly get it out to those hospitals where it will make a genuine difference,” says Magdalena Tharaldsen, Calmark’s Director International Business Development. “After my tour of Vietnam with the distributor, I know that the products are in the demand in hospitals and that they will enhance the quality of neonatal care.”
Every care has been taken in the translation of this document. In the event of discrepancies, the Swedish original will supersede the English translation.

Calmark Sweden AB is a medical technology company that develops and markets a point-of-care (POC) analysis method with easier and faster diagnostics of medical conditions in newborns. The unique test platform consists of a portable instrument and test cassettes for various biomarkers. The first test, Neo-Bilirubin, was launched to the market in 2020. In the Western world, the introduction of POC diagnostics is resulting in huge savings and shorter care chains. In less developed healthcare systems, the product will offer a decision support which is currently lacking, since the access to hospital laboratories often is limited. Calmark aims to become the global leader in POC diagnostics for newborns and, in the long term, to offer all relevant tests for the first period of life. In addition to products for newborns, Calmark sells a POC test for assessment of COVID-19 disease severity. The B share is listed on the Spotlight Stock Market and is traded under the CALMA B ticker.
