August 22, 2020

Headquartered in Switzerland, Achiko AG (ACHI) has recently announced the deployment of Teman Sehat to a further, extended number of locations, including hotels, recreation parks, and traditional markets. As of 14.08.2020, Teman Sehat will be available at Hotel Zuri, Hotel Amira and Hotel New Hollywood, recreational parks Alam Mayang, Taman Bunga Impian Okura, and Kampung Rabbit and the markets Rumah Sakit Syafira and Transmart Carrefour.

Teman Sehat (Health Buddy), Achiko's ecosystem platform is providing solutions to revive the Indonesian economy amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Teman Sehat connects the dots between places, testing, and people with an ecosystem that allows places to create safe environments for people to return to stores and venues while fostering and restoring mutual trust through testing. Contact tracing functionalities are embedded into the application.

In addition to Teman Sehat, Achiko has joined forces with Regenacellx.sl to develop an affordable and convenient Covid-19 test kit based on DNA aptamers, code-named Gumnuts. The test technology uses a saliva sample and delivers test results within minutes. Gumnuts offers several advantages over currently used testing approaches, including shelf life, cost, and ease of use.
