“The COVID-19 crisis is still rapidly evolving, and we continue to adapt our production to meet the most urgent needs. As a Washington-based manufacturer, we were significantly impacted by the inability to produce our outdoor gear. Fortunately, we’ve been able to flex the excess capacity of our highly nimble and skilled workforce to make medical-grade PPE masks. Now, by pivoting to make consumer masks we hope to help fight this disease further up the line by providing the public with masks to help limit the number of new infections and further reduce the risk to our frontline medical workers.”
