Ensuring access to personal protective equipment (PPE) has been critical during the COVID-19 pandemic.
To help provide more PPE for health-care workers, Western University’s Machine Services, based in the Engineering department, is pivoting its regular operations to produce face shields.
The face shields are low-cost and effective. The team estimates that between 200 to 300 shields can be produced daily and are currently looking into opportunities with General Dynamics Land Systems Canada, a global aerospace and defense company.
