COMMITMENT & QUALITY
Our commitment to quality and manufacturing is only matched by our commitment to the NHS. The new UK manufacturing facility is dedicated to supplying the NHS, ensuring a guaranteed sovereignty of supply.
Our new factory, purpose-built here in the UK, is dedicated to the manufacture and supply of Type II R & FFP3 masks. Furthermore, we have partnered with world leading manufacturers of non-woven materials here in the UK.
Our commitment does not stop at the masks. We have worked with four separate Trusts to develop a range of materials and tools to help fit testers and users alike.
PACKAGING
With all our masks we have developed packaging that is easy to identify, highlights the key features and makes it easy for the wearer to don the masks each and every time. Each of our packs converts into a display box with the donning instructions clearly displayed.
Each of the three sizes of FFP3 mask are also easy to recognise through simple colour coding on the outside of the pack. In addition, each individual mask is flow wrapped with the donning instructions clearly printed.
