It is great to see a local company continuing to operate during this crisis to provide a new product that is much needed support to our frontline workers.”
Ad-Vance Engineering has collaborated with Glen Dimplex, Heroshield and Plastics 2000 on this new innovative project.
“It is a privilege at this time to be able to provide elements of protection to our healthcare workers who are selflessly helping others during this pandemic,” added Mr Vance.
