The equipment that was transported to Poland was made at a textile factory in the municipality of Bălți. The company’s executive director Andrian Țeruș said this is not medical protective equipment, but disposable general use suits that are not sterile and that do not form part of the category of products whose export was banned by the state. He said he found himself clients outside the country to export the goods as the company is in a difficult situation and has to cope with the crisis, IPN reports.
“I understand the fuss that appeared amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but these are not medical protective equipment, but general use suits that can be used in different areas, from disinfection to work in car showrooms. We have only one type of product that is a polypropylene suit put over the clothes and is impermeable. It is a kind of disposable overalls that are thrown away after particular operations are performed. It is not sterile and this thing is written on the pack. If they can be now used in disinfection activities, it is very well,” Andrian Țeruș explained to TV8 channel.
The company’s director also said that their production line was recently re-launched after stagnating for over half a year. He assured he is ready to supply such coveralls on the domestic market too, if they are in demand and in the necessary quantities. The first consignment of 1,000 pieces will be delivered tomorrow as a donation to health facilities, under an agreement he reached earlier with the national authorities.
