Siemens, working in conjunction with Brammer Buck & Hickman, the UK’s leading supplier of industrial maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) products and services, has donated protective facemasks to two overseas charities.
The masks were ordered through Brammer Buck & Hickman – part of the Rubix Group – at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak and were used by Siemens’ factory staff and those deemed critical workers.
However, with government rules and advice in 2020 regularly changing, demand for disposal facemasks was considerably reduced. Rather than retain these masks, Siemens has donated them to two excellent charities for use overseas: Collective Aid and Medaid UK.
