new Joint Venture to Benefit Veterans with mobility challenges
NuvinAir Global, which offers a suite of patented and proprietary products that safely and effectively create healthy vehicle interiors, is pleased to announce its partnership with braunAbility, the leading manufacturer of wheelchair-accessible vehicles and wheelchair lifts around the world.
With a nationwide dealer network, BraunAbility caters to individuals with mobility challenges, including veterans with disabilities, by providing its participating mobility dealers with clean and sanitized vehicles treated with NuVinAir Global’s ‘Total Health’ protection, a proprietary product line that utilizes sanitization science and a patented cleaning process.
“Since launching several years ago, we’ve been focused on bringing ‘clean driving’ to drivers and passengers across the country, a mission that’s been catapulted by the pandemic over the past 18 months,” said Kyle Bailey, NuVinAir Global’s CEO and founder. “With an unprecedented urgency for ensuring all vehicles are sanitized and disinfected, joining forces with BraunAbility enables us to pay homage to our valiant veterans who may have mobility challenges — a community close to our hearts — while also empowering them with a sense of confidence that we’re putting their health at the forefront, every time they step foot inside their vehicle,” said Bailey.

The caliber of our Franchisee team demanded an executive who deeply understands how to forge the right partnerships for driving success, and we know that Marty will be a tremendous asset to all of us.”
