The COVID-19 pandemic that has swept the world in the spring of 2020 has triggered a response not only from the medical system but also from the business sector. In Lithuania, as in the rest of the world, the sudden increase in demand for COVID-19 tests and protective equipment created logistical challenges. Unteka responded very quickly to this situation by distributing COVID-19 tests, supporting hospitals in the country and contributing to the overall fight against the virus.
Pandemic challenges
With the quarantine and restrictions in Lithuania, rapid diagnosis of COVID-19 has become a priority to ensure safety and stop the spread of the virus. Unteka has started to work with trusted suppliers to provide the Lithuanian market with COVID-19 tests as soon as possible. Thanks to efficient logistics and strong international relationships, the company was able to obtain high quality tests, which started to be supplied to hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
In addition to selling COVID-19 tests, Unteka also provided support to hospitals, recognising that the situation called for solidarity. The company’s ability to adapt quickly to market needs was important, as it acted quickly in this unexpected situation to meet the needs of the Lithuanian healthcare sector and contribute to pandemic management.
Social responsibility and sustainable development
Unteka’s activities during the pandemic were not limited to the supply of tests. The company also offered protective equipment, including face masks and disinfectants, which were essential not only for medical staff but also for the general population. This support has become an integral part of Unteka’s image, as the pandemic has shown that the company is ready to act quickly and purposefully in response to the needs of society.
The pandemic was a test of Unteka’s ability to adapt quickly and efficiently to crisis situations, while maintaining a strong value base. Until this day company supply COVID-19 tests to Europe.
