Ricoh 3D is stepping up its support in the fight against COVID-19 and is using its resources to produce 40,000 clear face shields per week to equip the staff of the UK's NHS health system. The face shield has been specifically designed by Ricoh to improve comfort, and its reusability helps to reduce long-term costs.
Ricoh 3D, based in Telford, UK, is in discussions with medical institutions and NHS trusts across the UK and working around the clock to provide effective protective equipment using the rapid prototyping process of additive manufacturing.
