Web Industries, Inc.
by Adrienne Green
Our Fort Wayne, Indiana, facility has ramped up production of PPE components such as face mask and surgical gown ties, bindings, and other parts to meet the global surge in demand. Web Fort Wayne currently supplies 43 different formatted PPE parts using material from over a dozen different manufacturers.
Our Holliston, Massachusetts, facility is working with medical industry leaders to develop and mass-produce COVID-19 rapid diagnostic tests based on lateral flow technologies. An alternative to slower laboratory-based testing processes, these “point-of-care” tests will be able to provide effective results in as little as five minutes and at one-quarter the cost of current options.
With a wide array of cutting-tables, our Nantes, France, facility is producing disposable face masks and protective aprons for the French government, hospitals, and other health care providers.
Our Middlesex, Vermont, facility has produced disposable face mask kits for internal use within Web facilities and is developing similar face covering and isolation gowns for external customers. Additionally, they are assembling saliva collection kits to support COVID-19 detection and diagnosis testing.
Our facilities continue to work under COVID-19 protocols implemented in early March and continuously updated as the pandemic has evolved.
