Malaria is a preventable and treatable disease. Yet every two minutes a child dies of malaria and more than a billion people remain at risk. At TANA Netting we are committed to improve the lives of people threatened by malaria and other vector-borne diseases by providing cost-effective and high quality preventive products. Our core product is the DawaPlus® 2.0 long-lasting insecticidal net (LLIN), which is recommended by the World Health Organization Pesticide Evaluation Scheme (WHOPES). Building on the success of these widelyused LLINs, subsequent innovation has resulted in the new generation of DawaPlus® nets – DawaPlus® 3.0 and 4.0 - using patented insecticide technology to improve efficacy of the nets. TANA Netting is part of NRS International, a group of companies that develops and manufactures products for the humanitarian, development and public health sectors. We pride ourselves in manufacturing what we sell and adhere to sustainable and ethical business standards throughout our processes and supply chain. All our DawaPlus® products are manufactured at our ISO9001:2015 accredited state-of-the-art facility H. Sheikh Noor-ud-Din & Sons, located in Lahore, Pakistan.
Expertise and partnerships
We have an extensive understanding of the needs of our end users and recognize the importance of quality products and solutions. We provide reliable logistical support to our clients from our Dubai head office to ensure the nets reach beneficiaries as quickly as possible, even in hard-toreach destinations. We are actively involved in global programs and partnerships for the improvement of vector control tools, policies, advocacy and program implementation. In addition, we are building partnerships with manufacturers in Africa to fulfil the DawaPlus® legacy of producing nets locally in the world’s malarious regions.

Product innovation TANA Netting strives to pioneer products that protect the lives of those threatened by malaria and other vectorborne diseases. We follow a process we call ‘Innovation in Action’ which invites all stakeholders to contribute to the optimal product. This results in higher quality products, greater client- and beneficiary satisfaction and technological breakthroughs that have a real impact. Building on the tried and tested success of our existing DawaPlus® products, we have extensively collaborated across the private and public sectors, with academia, and with the beneficiaries themselves. Our new WHOPES-recommended products directly address challenges currently being faced in the fight against malaria:
DawaPlus® 3.0 and 4.0 designed to counter resistance to standard pyrethroid nets.
DawaPlus® 2.0 150D a high-strength 100% polyester net with softer feel and better airflow through the net.
DawaPlus® Canopy Hammock a hammock that incorporates DawaPlus® 2.0 netting and is designed to address malaria transmission in remote forests.

DawaPlus® Performance Malaria Consortium in Uganda performed field tests on DawaPlus® 2.0 nets for a period of three years. In 2012, the Consortium published the final results. Among the conclusions drawn, the Consortium confirmed the following:
“After 36 months of field use 83.3 (95% CI 65.3– 94.4) of the DawaPlus® 2.0 nets fulfilled the WHOPES criteria for the bioassay test, i.e. the criteria of 80% for the WHOPES phase III evaluation were fulfilled.” After 10 washes

DawaPlus® 2.0 Our core product is the DawaPlus® 2.0, a long-lasting insecticidal net that lasts a minimum of 20 washes or three years. It is soft and durable and comes in different deniers (75, 100 and 150), shapes, colors and sizes. We can accommodate product design to the requests of clients.
DawaPlus® 2.0 - 150D
We offer DawaPlus® 2.0 LLIN in high strength 150 denier yarns and a mesh size of 14 holes per square cm. This gives the net more strength, a softer look and feel and better airflow under the net while sleeping. The 150D net is up to 50% stronger than a standard 100D polyester net in some strength measurements.*
DawaPlus® Sandfly Net
DawaPlus® Sandfly Net has a fine mesh of 35 holes per square cm that prevents biting from small insects such as sandflies and phlebotomes. This net is specifically developed for areas with leishmaniasis. The net is originally sand colored to reflect user preference and to ensure a long practical life. It is also available in other colors.
DawaPlus® Curtain
DawaPlus® Curtain is made from DawaPlus® material and can be used as a screen on doors and windows or to cover eaves to prevent disease-carrying insects from entering into the household. The curtain comes with accessories for installation.

DawaPlus® 3.0 & 4.0 The new generation of DawaPlus® products offer long-lasting insecticide-synergist netting. Our patented technology is based on innovative insecticide delivery technology to improve efficacy of nets. Designed specifically for regions in which mosquitoes have developed resistance to pyrethroid insecticides, the synergist targets the resistance mechanism, allowing the insecticide to be fully effective.
DawaPlus® 3.0
DawaPlus® 3.0 incorporates this advanced netting into the roof of the net, with the sides of deltamethrin coated polyester.
Piperonyl butoxide (PBO)
Deltamethrin
Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) is incorporated into the netting, which acts alongside the deltamethrin. The PBO is a synergist, considerably enhancing the effectiveness of the pyrethroid insecticide by suppressing the mosquito’s enzyme defenses. We optimize each yarn to release either PBO or deltamethrin. This way we can ensure a proper ratio of the synergist during the lifetime of the net.
DawaPlus® 4.0
incorporates this advanced netting into the entire net, providing the maximum level of protection.

Production facility H. Sheikh Noor-ud-Din & Sons
Our DawaPlus® products are manufactured in our own state-of-the-art production facility H. Sheikh Noor-udDin & Sons (HSNDS) in Pakistan.
Core competencies
The production of DawaPlus® nets benefits from the cutting, sewing and stitching techniques honed over the years by our sister company NRS Relief, an industry leader in core relief items for the humanitarian sector. We apply the same knowledge and expertise to our DawaPlus® nets that has made NRS Relief the leading supplier of tents, blankets and tarpaulins to the humanitarian industry.
Responsible production
The factory uses the latest production technologies to manufacture products that are 100% compliant with the highest standards of international health organizations and NGOs. All our products are manufactured in a sustainable and socially responsible manner. This helps to retain skilled workers, nurture our reputation within the community, and promotes sustainable practices in our day-today business. We also strive to continuously reduce waste
and our environmental footprint. Strict policies ensure all waste and effluents are handled in accordance with international standards.
Localizing production
Our cut-to-pack facility in Nigeria demonstrates our commitment to localize production in malarious regions. Treated LLIN material is shipped in bulk to Nigeria from our Pakistan manufacturing base. This is then locally cut, sewn, packed, stored and distributed to beneficiaries in the country. This allows us to meet specific local needs more effectively while retaining control of the core process of chemical treatment with our engineers and laboratories.

Social good
We are dedicated to the advancement of women and to equal opportunities throughout our organization. As part of this commitment, our manufacturing facility in Pakistan includes a TANA Netting production unit which is completely managed and run by women. We also participate in the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Empowerment Principles (WEPs) under the UN Global Compact.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) defines TANA Nettingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach to business, and we understand that economic, environmental and socially sustainable business practices are an ongoing commitment. This has culminated in the publication of our first Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Report in 2017, the most widely used sustainability reporting standard globally. We invite you to download the report from www.tananetting.com.
Sustainability
We ensure economic sustainability by relying upon continuous innovation and product diversification, and we complement this approach by adhering to strong environmental principles. We are committed to reduce emissions and waste, while seeking to recycle and reuse across our production processes.
Bilqees Sarwar Foundation
