Barton Marine is providing Clear Film Face Masks to key workers around the South East. Working in partnership with a component supplier in Taiwan, Barton have been able to source an initial 500 Clear Film Face Masks to contribute to the safety of key workers in the UK.
Suzanne Blaustone - Barton CEO said, "We are honoured to be able to offer these masks free of charge to front-liners in need of PPE who are taking care of those in need. 200 will be sent to the Met Police in London and the rest to food banks and care homes in desperate need of PPE. We salute those in every sector who take care of others and continue the effort to keep our countries and communities stable in these troubled times."
The masks will shield the face and eyes from flying liquid and debris, going towards helping protect essential workers from coronavirus. With the current shortage of PPE across the globe, the team at Barton continue to explore ways in which they can do their bit to help reduce the shortage in the UK.
