VIDEO – Maitri Health Technologies $MTEC.ca Moves into High Gear, with Health Canada Approval of Domestically Manufactured #N95 Masks $DOC.ca $DOCRF $WELL.ca $PRN.ca

When COVID hit North America 12 months ago, there was no supply chain in place to handle the parabolic surge of demand for PPE (personal protective equipment – masks, shields, testing kits, etc.). 

An industry of “brokers” spawned overnight to fill the demand of buyers who were desperate and scrambling for product. In Canada, news reports highlighted how healthcare workers and businesses were shortchanged on international orders, or worse: shipped counterfeit or uncertified N95 masks that put people at greater risk of exposure and illness.

Enter Maitri: a global platform for healthcare supply security whose main focus provides a reliable source of certified PPE (personal protective equipment) and testing solutions through an onshore manufacturing model. 

  • The company has just been announced as one of the few manufacturers of domestically manufactured N95 masks to receive Health Canada certification
  • It’s a huge vote of confidence in the company and its products

Maitri’s model has led to the creation of innovative and industry leading products including 3D certified surgical masks and patent-pending face shields, all integrated with technology to help track, trace and enable safer workplaces and communities.

  • The global personal protective equipment market size is expected to reach USD $123.38bn by 2027,
  • That’s a CAGR of 9.6%.

Maitri CEO Andrew Morton talks us through the size of the market, the significance of the Health Canada certification, and the headline-grabbing $2m deal with Loop Insights:

  • Medical-grade protective gear designed and made in Canada ;
  • Offers greater certainty regarding source, quality and timely delivery of genuine N95 masks.

VANCOUVER, BC , March 17, 2021 /CNW/ – Maitri Health Technologies Corp. (“Maitri”) (CSE: MTEC) (FRA: D84), a global platform for healthcare supply security, today announced the availability of N95 medical-grade protective masks, one of the few, domestically manufactured N95 masks to receive Health Canada certification.

N95 masks are among the most in-demand and difficult to source pieces of personal protective equipment (PPE) commonly used by hospital, healthcare and other frontline workers. N95 masks filter out at least 95 per cent of very small particles, including airborne droplets.

Maitri’s N95 masks, manufactured in Port Coquitlam, B.C. through an exclusive partnership with INNO Lifecare, were approved by Health Canada in March.

“Maitri is delivering what governments and organizations across Canada have sorely needed and requested since the beginning of the pandemic – a domestically manufactured and certified N95 mask,” said Andrew Morton, CEO of Maitri.
