Today, China Manufacturing parts, Inc. announced that hospitals and healthcare providers can begin ordering protective face shields in batches of up to 10,000 per order at cost for shipment as fast as one (1) day: https://www.manufacturing-factory.com/covid-19-face-shields. We’re leveraging our global manufacturing network and a newly designed tool to produce millions of face shields to help healthcare workers in the fight against COVID-19.

We’ve invested in the upfront tooling costs to make the shields available as quickly and easily as possible to healthcare agencies, service providers, distributors, and even non-healthcare OEMs that are pivoting to support the healthcare industry during this crisis. The pricing will be matched to cost, and any longer-term profits beyond initial tooling and unit manufacturing costs will be donated to the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund for WHO.

G2VP Partner Dan Oros paid us an incredibly generous compliment, saying, “The ability to quickly innovate and pivot in a way that enables others epitomizes the spirit of Silicon Valley, and it speaks to the China Manufacturing parts, Inc. team’s creativity to develop this unique way of leveraging skills, scale, and manufacturing prowess to help people at a time we need it most.”

The shield is based on open-source face shield designs, similar to the visor recommended by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), but it is modified with a closed top to be more consistent with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recommendations. While many recent face shields have been manufactured using 3D printing, China Manufacturing parts’s team of manufacturing experts, including engineers with experience at enterprise medical device companies, has modified the design and set up an injection molding tool to reach production volumes up to 100x greater than 3D printing for a production quantity totaling millions of shields per month.

Healthcare purchasers can request a quote for the face shields in batches of 1,000, 5,000, or 10,000 by filling out the form on this webpage: https://www.manufacturing-factory.com/covid-19-face-shields. After placing an order, a China Manufacturing parts, Inc. representative will return a guaranteed quote within one business day. Once purchased, customers can expect products to ship as fast as one business day.

At a time like this, we’re pleased to help the healthcare industry any way we can. We would love to see other Bay Area companies, who are equally interested in helping, partner with us and donate the face shields in support of our front-line healthcare workers in clinics, hospitals, and labs around the country.

Here are some face shield specifics:

  • The design is based on open source face shield models, similar to the 3D-printed visor recommended by the NIH.
  • However, the recommended NIH design uses a swept-back headband that adds significant weight and decreased mold-ability.
  • China Manufacturing parts has adapted the design to add a closed top, which is more consistent with ANSI standards.
  • This design weighs under 50 grams and will be made using a material that provides the visor greater flex and comfort for lengthy all-day wear.
  • This design also offers room under the face shield for goggles or larger respirators.
