Dr. Drew Pinsky is Exclusive Spokesperson for FDA Approved and OSHA Compliant Innovative Line of Devices
LAFAYETTE, LA / ACCESSWIRE / November 5, 2019 / RedHawk Holdings Corp. (OTC PINK:SNDD) ("RedHawk" or the "Company") a diversified holding company engaged in sales and distribution of medical devices, branded generic pharmaceutical drugs, commercial real estate investment and leasing, point of entry full-body security systems, and specialized financial services, announced today it has commenced its social media advertising campaign by engaging Singer Marketing, Inc. ("Singer"), a New York-based marketing technology company specializing in assisting companies with their digital marketing needs. RedHawk's initial social media campaign will focus on the Company's FDA approved and OSHA compliant line of needle incineration devices.
RedHawk also announced today that in mid-November, it expects to commence the video production of its social media campaign with Dr. Drew Pinsky ("Dr. Drew") which may include, among other things, product video testimonials, infomercials, direct response television commercials, audiovisual digital platforms, search engine marketing, social media public relations, and e-mails to existing customers of RedHawk or third party agencies.
As previously announced, the Company and Dr. Drew entered into a consulting agreement in July 2019, wherein Dr. Drew agreed to be the Company's exclusive spokesperson for its SANDD mini™ needle incineration unit, SANDD Pro™ needle incineration unit and any related products and/or accessories.
The SANDD mini™ is the only FDA-approved portable, battery-operated needle destruction device that eliminates the use of sharps containers for disposal in both clinical and home settings. The SANDD mini™ (formerly known as The Disintegrator™) is a portable, lithium-ion battery operated, needle destruction device designed for use by self-injector diabetics in the home. In clinical settings, the SANDD mini™ can be used by allergist, dermatologist, cosmetologist, plastic surgeons and other medical specialists without the need for sharps containers for needle disposal. The SANDD mini™ provides diabetics with the safe and environmentally friendly disposal of needles following their use in a home setting and is an effective alternative to hazardous waste needle disposal utilizing sharps containers.
The SANDD Pro™ is capable of incinerating hypodermic needles 18-gauge and higher, and up to 8 inch in length. Additionally, SANDD Pro™ technology is expected to feature a portable, rechargeable, lithium-ion battery operated unit. RedHawk believes that this portable unit (the "SANDD Pro™ - Portable") will incinerate as many as 300 needles, ranging in gauges as thick as 21 gauge and lengths up to 8" on a single charge. RedHawk expects that the SANDD Pro™ - Portable will be ideal for field use by first responders, home health care nurses, veterinarians and home use injectors. The SANDD Pro™ is both FDA approved and OSHA compliant and is expected to be available by the end of 2019.
G. Darcy Klug, RedHawk Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We have successfully completed our limited marketing campaign to sell our SANDD mini™ to various Texas Independent School Districts and we are now building our team of independent marketing representatives needed to address the increased product demand expected in Texas. We have recently initiated similar limited marketing campaigns to school nurses in California and along the Gulf Coast, but in these areas, we have expanded our marketing campaign to also include law enforcement agencies and diabetic educators. We believe these marketing campaigns coupled with the engagement of Singer and the commencement of Dr. Drew's social media production will significantly increase public awareness of the capabilities of our line of SANDD™ needle incineration devices and may translate into increased sales and profitability as we continue to broaden our distribution."
