ENGEL and Haidlmair together against Covid-19: Face masks in record time
The two-piece reusable masks, which are injection-moulded from TPE, provide protection for the mouth and nose for use in daily life and in certain work situations, for example in the construction industry. The masks can be cleaned and disinfected and different filter materials can be inserted.
In countries that have exempted face masks from medical device legislation due to the Covid-19 pandemic, these masks can be produced and marketed by companies from a wide range of industries. "This solution allows us to help companies change their production at short notice in order to actively participate in the fight against the further spread of Covid-19," says Dr. Christoph Steger, CSO of ENGEL.
