Rubber Bands for Medical and Healthcare Equipment / PPE
The actual shortage of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) continues to strain healthcare workers combating the COVID-19 outbreak. Our flexible production facilities can help to secure a reliable supply of rubber bands for face masks and face shields.
H+D rubber bands guarantee a secure hold of face masks. We supply these special rubber bands in different sizes for all common face mask types. For disposable face masks, usually natural rubber bands are used, for high-quality face masks type FFP2 or FFP3, our latex-free rubber bands H+D LatexFree® are common. The rubber bands are easily sewn or looped into the face mask. The face masks are secured to ears using one rubber band per ear loop.
