Polisport in the breach against COVID-19!
Off-road enthusiasts naturally know Polisport as a manufacturer of plastic and engine protection parts. However, the Portuguese Polisport group manufactures many other products, including for the bicycle sector. Responding to the demand for facial protection for doctors and healthcare providers, the R&D department came up with a new visor in no time!
Polisport previously reported on their YouTube channel how they took on this very current challenge. As in many countries, it is an enormous challenge for aid workers to find good protection in which they can do their work safely.
However, the company's experience with bicycle helmets made it a breeze to produce a functional, protective visor for healthcare workers. The basis of this ingenious product are the PVC screens used in bicycle helmets. Polisport wants to protect the people on the front line fighting the coronavirus as well and as quickly as possible. With this wonderful solidarity action, the company primarily aims to meet local needs in Portugal.
Bravo Polisport. An example worth following!
