with the widespread shortage of personal protective equipment (ppe), including medical face masks, for healthcare workers fighting the spread of covid-19, we decided to pivot our day-to-day operations to include the production and sale of cloth face masks. we’re so thankful that our existing skills and equipment allowed us to make even the smallest difference in protecting our community, while keeping our team working and creating for as long as possible.

these masks are not intended to replace medical masks, when available, but our hope is that they will help protect healthcare workers who are lacking ppe, as well as provide an option for non-healthcare workers that won’t reduce the availability or medical masks for those who need them most.

the first 100 face masks produced were donated to hardworking and deserving healthcare workers thanks to a generous donation from monument geomatics that covered material costs, and to the onderbroeks team who volunteered their time and skills. we also included a donate a mask option at checkout which was a great success! thank you to our community.
