Not All Heroes Wear Capes... Some Wear Face Shields

500 face shields on their way to Kettering General Hospital

During this time of global uncertainty, we have never been more proud to be British. From the nationwide #ClapForCarers, to the record numbers of volunteers, communities are pulling together to protect those that need it most. At Clenaware Systems we want to play our part.

As a design and manufacturing company for the hospitality trade, we currently have a lot of time on our hands, and without the ability to go to the pub for a pint we have changed our focus from producing commercial products to producing much-needed parts for the NHS.

At Clenaware, we embrace the latest in technology, and one of our latest ventures is with our 3D printers (commonly known as "The Girls"!). These printers have been used for research and development as well as the printing of parts for our products.

Rather than leave our 3D printers idle, we put our heads together and started to look for ways to use our skills in design and 3D printing to help the NHS and our local community. Following a post on social media from Reece Quartermaine who had designed and started printing headbands for face shields we thought it was an ideal opportunity to assist Reece in his quest to provide face shields for Kettering General Hospital.

We are now working with Reece and using our 3D printing capability to provide headbands for the face shields. In an effort to provide Kettering General Hospital with completed face shields we called upon the help of Custom Keyboard Print who have kindly given us the PVC plastic for the face shields cut to size and hole punched ready for us to combine in a pack.

We have now committed to delivering 500 face shields to Kettering General Hospital, and we hope that these shields make a difference to our front line NHS staff who work tirelessly to protect and look after us.

From everyone at Clenaware, we would like to thank every keyworker that works to protect us and keep Britain afloat; your work and sacrifices are greatly appreciated and you will not be forgotten.
