Local Business Steps up for Coronavirus Front Line Workers
CLEARSTREAM FILTERS INC is MANUFACTURING FACE MASKS!
Located in Delhi, ON, Clearstream Filters Inc. manufactures liquid filtration bags and equipment for a number of industries. The raw material these filter bags are made from is very similar to the material used for 3 ply disposable masks and isolation gowns. This made it a natural decision to add these PPE products to our manufacturing line at the onset of the pandemic. As a small family owned business Clearstream is proud to offer local businesses and community the opportunity to obtain locally manufactured PPE.
Clearstream gowns are made of hydrophobic polypropylene. This SMS material combines spunbonded and meltblown which provides exceptional protection. Gowns are ultrasonically welded with no sewing. The inside layer of our 3 ply masks is electrocharged melt blown polypropylene. This enables the mask to filter submicron particulate. To our knowledge none of the non-medical class masks offer this layer of charged material. All of our PPE is manufactured at our facility in Delhi, ON, Canada.”
