During the COVID-19 pandemic, Pyreos is prioritising the delivery of its infrared pyroelectric detectors to manufacturers of critical medical systems, especially capnography systems and anaesthetic gas monitors.

Capnometers continuously measure CO2 concentration in-breath, and the high speed of the company's infrared sensors makes them especially suitable.

Due to the pandemic, the company has ramped the production of its ezPyro, anaesthesia and CO2 detection products to assist OEMs manufacturing these essential systems worldwide.

The company is prioritising the distribution of products for urgent medical use, with importance provided to standard products for medical systems and the provision of custom services for medical work such as non-standard filters and prototypes.
