While COVID-19 has mandated a ‘new normal’ calling for significant changes in our lifestyle, PPE shall remain an integral part of the attire. Sensing the need, Vardhman has come up with an innovative range of functional fabrics for face masks designed to provide both safety and comfort to the wearer.
The group has launched a fabric collection which is customizable, eco-friendly and reusable. With the availability of a variety of finishes, these breathable fabrics are suitable to create the soft inner lining of the masks as well as the water-repellant outer layer. The innovative range of fabrics is dedicated to delivering safety with comfort even when the mask is required to be worn for long hours.
Vardhman had recently introduced PPE kits manufactured at its Ludhiana based Garmenting Unit which received approval from DRDO for supply to the healthcare providers. The newly launched fabric for face masks shall cater to the needs of factory workers, office goers as well as school-going children.
The masks made out of these fabrics being reusable and washable are also a sustainable alternative. The fabric offers better breathability and being anti-microbial, it is safer and superior to the masks made out of ordinary fabric.
