To ensure the supply of disposable face masks during the novel coronavirus outbreak, the market regulation authority of Beijing's Fangshan district said that it has taken various support measures to help mask manufacturers resume production.
The market regulation authority has helped source for melt-blown fabrics, a crucial component in the production of masks. The authority worked with producers to supply 500 kilograms protective material to Beijing Kangyu Medical Equipment, which can use it to produce half a million disposable masks.
After receiving reports from the market regulation authority of shortages, the district government also worked with producers to supply Beijing Rongkang Medical Supplies with 20-kilograms of the protective fabric every day. This can be used to produce 20,000 disposable masks daily.
Market regulation authority officials said they had already delivered the melt-blown fabrics to mask-producing companies through chartered vehicles.
In addition, the market regulation authority also enlisted the help of the Beijing No. 1 Machine Tool Plant to assist the mask producers in the repair and troubleshooting of equipment in some of the plants.
Meanwhile, it also helped Beijing Kangyu Medical Equipment Company in the preparation of documents required for obtaining the registration certificate of medical products, and facilitated the company's application by coordinating with the city's medical products administration.
The two mask manufacturers have already begun trial production under strict supervision, officials said.
