Belarusian Bellegprom's enterprises make over 4.5m face masks

MINSK, 23 March (BelTA) – Enterprises affiliated with the Belarusian state light industry concern Bellegprom have produced more than 4.5 million face masks, BelTA learned from the Bellegprom press service.

“Around 300,000 face masks are made daily, which is enough to satisfy the domestic demand. The Belarusian Healthcare Ministry reports that there is no buoyant demand for face masks. However, Bellegprom enterprises do not halt production of medical gear to build an adequate strategic stockpile,” the press service noted.

The enterprises mainly produce multi-use four-layer cotton face masks that can be sterilized.

At the same time, the MedLen company launched production of single-use three-layer face masks. The outer and inner layers are made from the SpanBel nonwoven fabric of the SvetlogorskKhimvolokno company, the middle layer is from the cotton fabric of the Medvatfarm company.
