Production of sanitizers began today, and will continue as long as it takes to keep people safe, in partnership with our trusted partner, ICR. We owe this feat to the unwavering spirit of our workers, and the workers of Italy, in whose courageous hands this fight is being fought. They are selflessly united behind our country’s cause, so we have the best chance of overcoming the situation. We see and support you. Together, we will overcome. . . . #BvlgariSupportsYou #SafeHands #Bvlgari #iorestoacasa #fightcovid19 #lvmhjoinsforces

The company has vowed to do its part in protecting the “innocent hands” of doctors, nurses and volunteers on the frontlines, fighting every day to save the lives of millions of people.

“Aware of the difficult situation we are experiencing, we believe it is our duty to contribute with our know-how and production facilities,” Bvlgari CEO Jean-Christophe Babin said in a statement.

Over the next two months, Bvlgari will manufacture several hundred thousand 75ml recyclable bottles of hand-cleansing gel to be distributed in priority to all medical facilities throughout Italy.
