An Unprecedented Human Crisis
The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has taken the world by surprise and has put it in the eye of a seemingly endless superstorm. Nowhere is the danger clearer and more present than in the shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers around the globe, especially face shield and N95 face masks.
3D Printing Industry Steps Up
As the nasty COVID-19 virus spreads and supply of PPE dwindles across the world, innovators in the medical 3D printing industry, such as Zeal 3D, have responded to the distress calls of healthcare professionals. Production has started for specially designed 3D printed anti-COVID-19 items. With the help of our sophisticated industrial 3-D printers, that was already capable of producing prosthetics, airplane parts, etc., we are now also printing life-saving ventilators and respirators.
