“The certifications are regulatory necessities in order to commence fulfilment into these regions. The successful completion of certifications involves a rigorous process and can only be done on completed manufactured products. We are delighted to have received these despite COVID-19 related barriers and allowing us to service approximately 98% of all our IQbuds² Max pre-order sales,” said Nuheara CEO Justin Miller.
“Our Direct To Consumer (DTC) sales channel is proving to be immensely valuable in these difficult times. With many global hearing clinics now shuttered, Nuheara’s DTC sales process and self-service hearing product offering is proving extremely resilient in an uncertain market.
“Our sales are continuing and we remain committed to manufacturing and shipping our pre-order units as soon as government restrictions are lifted in Malaysia, building our supply capacity for both DTC and online partner retailers.”
Testing of production line manufactured IQbuds² MAX units were conducted by Bureau Veritas.
This announcement has been approved for release by the CEO Mr Justin Miller.
