WE SEW FOR GERMANY
Medical supply stores and orthopaedic-technical companies supportin the production of certified pandemic protective mask CV-19 according to the FFP2 standard (based on EN 149).
The demand for masks has been enormous, not only since the wearing of respiratory masks was recommended in public to protect oneself and others from infection. However, not only simple spit protection masks for public use are needed, but above all high-quality protective masks according to the FFP2 standard for medical personnel. Patient care can only be secured across the board if medical supply stores and orthopaedic companies have the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
The Federal Association of Guilds for Orthopaedic Technology (BIV-OT) considers itself responsible for supporting the medical supply stores at all levels.
Sporlastic, the Nürtingen-based manufacturer of bandages and orthoses, succeeded in developing a certified pandemic protective mask CV-19 and starting serial production within only 10 days. These masks are currently being supplied to government institutions.
Besides the right filter material, the bottleneck for a sufficient supply is the limited sewing capacity. Another challenge is the targeted distribution of the masks to system-relevant persons (such as doctors, nurses, caregivers, etc.).
Medical supply stores and orthopaedic companies can make a decisive contribution here with their manual skills and the existing network to relevant institutions and position themselves as valuable, system-relevant supporters.
Together with the BIV-OT, Sporlastic has developed the campaign "We sew for Germany" as a concept partner and offers certified mask sewing kits, with which medical supply stores and orthopaedic-technical companies can produce appropriate masks for their staff.
These kits contain all materials required for the production of certified pandemic protective mask CV-19 according to the FFP2 standard (based on EN 149).
The German Society for Interprofessional Aid Supply also supports the project. Together we are setting an example of controlled quality and responsibility for the production of PPE in Germany.
