Survitec has been selected by the UK Department for Health and Social Care to produce sterilised surgical isolation gowns in order to supply the NHS with much needed Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This contract is part of the UK Government’s recently announced initiative for manufacturing PPE for the NHS.

The Group’s Birkenhead factory, which has continued to operate during the COVID-19 crisis, supporting the UK’s aerospace and defence industries, has been expanded to include a dedicated site for the production of the life-saving gowns. The Company will be hiring over 100 additional workers from the local area to support this critical work. As an existing supplier of choice for the UK Government, Survitec already meets the high standards for such critical material production and will produce this new PPE to the standards required by the NHS and other health services.
