"At 3M, we are fully committed to fighting the spread of covid19 by supporting medical workers in the United States and around the world.
"This pandemic is affecting all of us, and we are doing everything we can to support public health, especially our first responders and those affected by the global health crisis. 3M Chairman and CEO Mike Roman ( Mike Roman) said: "We are mobilizing all available resources to rapidly increase the key physical assets of medical workers in the United States and around the world to help them protect their lives when treating others. "
In the United States, we produce 35 million respirators every month; of these, more than 90% of medical workers are designated as medical personnel, and the rest are allocated to other industries, including energy, food and pharmaceutical companies.
On Sunday, March 22, Mike shared on LinkedIn how we turn our work into products and apply them where they are most needed:
"Like everyone, I see requests from heroic doctors, nurses, and emergency personnel for the respirators and other equipment they desperately need." I hope people know that we are doing everything we can to meet the needs of this special period And send the supply of our factory to the place where it is most needed as soon as possible. At the time of writing this article, more than 500,000 respirators are being shipped from our South Dakota factory to the two most affected areas, New York and Seattle, and are expected to arrive tomorrow. We are also ready to expedite the additional shipping across the country. "
Support emergency response
Since the outbreak of the covid19 epidemic, 3M has doubled its global N95 respirator output to more than 1.1 billion units per year, or nearly 100 million units per month worldwide.
In the United States, 3M currently produces more than 400 million N95 respiratory protective masks each year, and these masks are increasingly used to support government and public health response measures. The company also manufactures respirators in Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.
In addition, 3M is increasing investment, mainly in the United States, the company plans to expand its global production capacity by more than 30% in the next 12 months.
The company will also maximize the production of other products for covid19 response solutions worldwide, including hand sanitizers, disinfectants and filters, as the pharmaceutical industry is struggling to find vaccines against the virus.
Global cooperation
3M is working with governments, medical officials, customers and distributors around the world to help them deliver supplies where they are most needed.
The extension of the recently issued U.S. PREP Act helps ensure that hospitals and medical staff can use surgical masks and standard N95 masks at any time in response to the 19th polio pandemic.
Congress should now ensure that all critically needed reusable respirators, including powered air purifying respirators (PAPRs) and other respirators, can be used equally, both to preserve the supply of n95 and to require them for medical or religious reasons Provided by medical staff.
3M encourages governments around the world to work together to ensure the effective operation of the supply chain, so that key products can reach the areas where they are most needed. Restrictions that impede the free movement of goods hinder such delivery.
3M is receiving more and more reports of fraud and counterfeiting activities involving 3M products. The company strongly condemned any unethical behavior that exploited the global pandemic.
Due to the outbreak of covid19, 3M has not changed the price of 3M respirators, but the company cannot control the prices of 3M respirators from dealers or retailers.
people oriented
Our top priority is the safety of the people and the public.
3M is very grateful for the efforts of employees around the world. They strive to maintain the company's operations and increase the production of required materials to help our customers treat and protect people.
Earlier, 3M restricted international travel that was not considered important to the business, and provided employees with information about preventive measures that helped prevent the spread of covid19 and the actions that should be taken if employees were sick. https://www.maskwholesales.com/disposable-surgical-mask.html
This week, 3M has formulated a remote work policy and a paid vacation policy. If American employees cannot work because they take care of others, take care of their children, or because of self-isolation related to the 19th h1n1 flu outbreak, they will receive up to two weeks ’ Paid vacation. "
