Сандалі чоловічі nike, Memphis warehouse – its largest distribution center in the world – after an employee tested positive for the virus on April 2nd, is working with health professionals at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) to manufacture high-functioning, easy-to-produce PPE.

“Without proper facial protection, healthcare workers are at a higher risk of contracting the virus,” says Miko Enomoto, M.D., associate professor of anesthesiology and perioperative medicine, OHSU School of Medicine. “[A lack of adequate supplies] could place substantial strain on the healthcare workforce in the months ahead.”

Nike’s internal Innovation and Air Manufacturing Innovation teams have developed and streamlined a nine-step process for the full-face shields. These protective instruments are created from reconsidered, Nike-owned materials: Collar padding once intended for shoes; cords originally earmarked for clothing; and, most important, Nike Air soles’ TPU component. Together, these three repurposed elements will help healthcare workers stay safe as they work tirelessly to save lives.
