Partnership with Corteco steps up a gear
16 July 2010

Corteco

Corteco, car air filter manufacturer, has been supporting Asthma UK for two years now, and we are thrilled to announce that this year the company has raised almost £10,000!

The joint activity in 2010 includes donations from the sales of the Corteco micronAir filter, which reduces the amount of asthma triggers such as car fumes and pollen from entering into the vehicle.

In addition, Corteco have been raising awareness about asthma and fundraising for Asthma UK at Tesco stores around England while giving shoppers the chance to have free micronAir filters fitted to their cars.

Corteco also got four of their distributors - Euro Carparts, Millfield, Parkers and SDL involved which has significantly boosted the campaign and funds raised towards Asthma UK’s work.

Corteco and their distributors have also helped raise awareness about our Putting Asthma in the Limelight week at the beginning of May by utilising their network of thousands of garage contacts to reach customers all over the UK.

Anne Breary, Senior Corporate Development Officer, said: ‘We are thrilled with the achievements of this partnership which is a great example of how companies can work together with Asthma UK to really make a difference. We look forward to developing new ideas with Corteco and their distributors to continue this fantastic success.’
