When COVID-19 spread and became a worldwide pandemic, a shortage of personal protective equipment became a real issue for healthcare workers in the early stages of the outbreak. As a country we were dependent on filter facemasks produced in China. Hundreds of thousands of masks were imported and tested in the Netherlands, and many of them were rejected by the testing facility.
For that reason, Atelier Safiera developed filter facemasks together with DEPEE Industries, and built a production facility in Holland. In our country we are used to quality in healthcare, so quality and continuity are what we offer.
