It\u2019s been a busy few months. \u00a0Not least with us joining UK designers and other manufacturers in answering the call for Critical PPE!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s our latest update on the Protecting Heroes project.<\/p>\n

Good Morning Britain<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A month ago, our customer\u2019s protective face shields were featured on Good Morning Britain<\/strong>, being packed up by a fantastic team from National Physics Laboratory (NPL), ready for despatch to University College London for our NHS heroes on the frontline.<\/p>\n

Coined the \u201cWorld\u2019s Safest Face Visors\u201d by respected scientific authorities, the visors went through design, rigorous testing, specialist tool<\/a> and machine moulding stages before being manufactured in our factory here in the UK.\u00a0 They were then assembled and delivered – all within 8 weeks!\u00a0 The team worked all hours with unwavering grit and determination.\u00a0 A fantastic team effort, thank you all!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Level 3 EU Certification\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One month on and now we\u2019re thrilled to announce our customer, Protecting Heroes, have been awarded the extremely eminent Level 3 EU Type-Examination Certificate<\/a>, proving the face shields satisfy essential health and safety requirements of Annex II of the PPE Regulation (EU) as a Category III product – one of the highest certificates available! This included passing detailed technical reports and stringent product safety reviews.<\/p>\n

Increased Production with 2-Cavity Tool<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We now have a 2-cavity tool for the face shields, creating a long-term solution to prevent UK PPE shortages in the future.\u00a0 Having initially made the single cavity tool in record time to get the visors into production, the recent Level 3 certification has proved that the face shields are a success, so we\u2019ve been busy in the toolroom<\/a> making the 2-cavity tool.<\/p>\n

This means 100\u2019s of 1000\u2019s of face shields can now be produced for NHS doctors, nurses and healthcare workers on the frontline, minimising their exposure to the COVID-19 virus and giving them added reassurance day in, day out. \u00a0\u00a0Just as they provide ongoing care, we want to ensure ongoing support, so our response to the crisis will continue.<\/p>\n

\"ProtectingHeroes_FaceShields\"<\/p>\n

As Clare Elvy, Marketing Manager explained \u201cour ability to act quickly in the crisis has given us a great opportunity to help.\u00a0 And because of our agility and collaborative approach, adapting our operations to be able to manufacture the face shields at scale, we haven\u2019t needed to furlough any staff during the pandemic, putting 3 people to work full time on the project.\u201d<\/p>\n

Finally, big thanks to our team assembling the face shields \u2013 you\u2019re doing a sterling job!<\/p>\n

We understand many UK companies are struggling with the supply of critical components at this time.\u00a0 If you want your products manufactured here in the UK, quickly and cost effectively, we can help. Please call us<\/a>, we\u2019d love to hear from you. #ukmfg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
