ST Engg's mask filters strengthen Singapore's supply chain resilience
Singapore
SINGAPORE is starting to stockpile high-quality mask filters, as the Republic strengthens its domestic mask production capabilities said Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing on Thursday morning, following the announcement that Singapore Technologies (ST) Engineering has started producing melt blown polypropylene filters.
These filters, which can be inserted into reusable masks, are suitable for medical use and are significantly more breathable than most commercially available filters of the same grade said Gareth Tang, senior vice- president/head, robotics and autonomous solutions, and head, urban environment solutions at ST Engineering .
