The link between respiratory care and Lina Manufacturing Ltd in Sri Lanka is as synonymous as the vital link between oxygen and lungs. It was indeed Lina Manufacturing which made history by becoming the first-ever Sri Lankan pharmaceuticals company to manufacture respiratory care products and also won the Presidential Award for its mix and the Inhaler Device. They were the pioneers to export the bulk mix. Akbar Pharmaceuticals Managing Director Asgi Akbarally and Delmege Forsyth Chief Executive Officer T. Sayandhan after signing the MOU Lina Manufacturing is a subsidiary of Akbar Pharmaceuticals Ltd belonging to Akbar Group of companies. Delmege Forsyth Co. Ltd possesses a proud and acclaimed merchandising history dating back to 1865. Renowned for providing consumers with a range of quality products and services, the hallmark of its historical identity is indeed based on the meticulous selection of only quality products for its merchandising portfolio. Accordingly, the epoch-making signing of the Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) between Lina Manufacturing Ltd and Delmege Forsyth Co. Ltd is perhaps the fulfilling of a historical calling for an international standard respiratory care products manufacturer to linkup with an equally reputed merchandiser of high quality products – the combination of which brings extremely timely and beneficial results to significant numbers of individuals in Sri Lanka who depends on such service for their qualitative living. The signing of this important MOU took place recently at the Akbar Brothers Ltd Boardroom, in the presence of Akbar Pharmaceuticals Ltd. Managing Director Asgi Akbarally, Delmege Forsyth Co. Ltd Chief Executive Officer T. Sayandhan, Lina Director General Manager Rohan Wetthasingha and the Business Development Managers of both companies.
