[Asia Economy Reporter Hyungsoo Park] Nano material specialist Lemon is showing strong performance. The news that it has developed a ‘medical protective suit (Level D, Type 5)’ to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) appears to have influenced its stock price.


As of 10:25 AM on the 12th, Lemon is trading at 17,000 KRW, up 10.39% from the previous day.


The medical protective suit developed by Lemon applies Nano Membrane, boasting excellent breathability. Nano Membrane is a new material with fine fiber diameters and a high air gap. It is characterized by being thin, lightweight, and having high breathability and waterproofness. It can be applied in a wide range of fields such as outdoor clothing, environment, and medical, making it a core material in various industries.


Lemon developed the protective suit using new materials to help medical staff struggling in the heat. When worn, it easily expels sweat and has excellent moisture permeability and waterproof functions, showing differentiated performance compared to conventional protective suit fabrics.


It also meets the European Union’s industrial and biosafety standard EN14126 for biological hazard and infection protection. It has passed all performance tests by domestic accredited testing institutions for various standards including artificial blood penetration resistance. It is currently preparing to obtain certification from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and CE (European Conformity).



A Lemon official said, “Lemon’s medical protective suit is a high-performance suit that releases internal moisture vapor outside while blocking all external substances,” and added, “We express our gratitude to the medical staff nationwide who have been working hard for a long time and will continue to strive to develop products that help the entire industry.”
