Wijnegem, Belgium, July 20 2016: Novosanis, a medical device company based in Belgium, announced today a new distribution partnership with Distribuidora GAP, short for Distribuidora Química y Hospitalaria GAP. As part of this agreement, Distribuidora GAP will sell the Novosanis’ Colli-Pee^TM, a medical device suited for collection of first void urine, in Mexico.

Distribuidora GAP is one of Mexico’s largest distributors dedicated to the promotion, sales and distribution of reagents, hospital materials and equipment for clinical laboratories.

"Distribuidora GAP has a strong expertise in the field of distribution of medical devices to labs and hospitals. This distribution partnership will strengthen the international position of Novosanis in Mexico." says Vanessa Vankerckhoven, CEO Novosanis.

Jesus Ortega Martínez, CEO at Distribuidora GAP: "We’re excited to distribute Colli-Pee^TM to laboratories and hospitals in Mexico. Novosanis’ device allows easier and more patient-friendly detection of the Human papillomavirus that can lead to cervical cancer. This is still an important health problem to women living in rural and suburban regions of Mexico. Thanks to Colli-Pee^TM we can have new ways to reach out to these remote groups of women. We believe this partnership will help us to fight HPV and save many women from cervical cancer."
