AK GlobalTech Challenges Music Festival Organizers to Promote Safer Drinking
Leading breathalyzer brand, trusted by the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Marine Corps, offers free devices to help reduce alcohol-related deaths, injuries and illnesses at festivals.
- (1888PressRelease) May 03, 2017 - PALISADES PARK, NJ - AK GlobalTech, creators of AlcoMate®, the most reliable personal breathalyzer brand, announced today that it is launching a new program to provide music festival attendees with an easy way to routinely check and monitor their blood alcohol content (BAC) levels. The initiative comes on the heels of a recent study, which found that 13% of deaths at music festivals worldwide were drug and alcohol-related.
"We are doing our part to help organizers set new standards in risk management for these large, high stake events," said Charles Lee, General Manager of AK GlobalTech. "We'll never be able to stop concert-goers from drinking, but we can empower them with tools that keep them safe and conscious of how much alcohol they're consuming."
Through the initiative, festival organizers will receive AlcoMate® breathalyzers that include pre-calibrated replaceable sensor modules (PRISM), a patented technology that ensures breath test accuracy regardless of how many are administered. This equips festival organizers with an error-free way to provide thousands of attendees with precise BAC readings.
The following festivals have been offered AlcoMate® devices free of charge for their summer lineups:
• Austin City Limits
• Bonnaroo
• Boston Calling
• Bottle Rock
• Burning Man
• Camp Bisco
• Electric Zoo NYC
• Governor's Ball Music Festival
• Lollapalooza
• Made In America
• Pitchfork Music Festival
• Warped Tour
