The New Medical Mask Production Line of Subsidiary UMT!

The novel coronavirus can infect healthy people after close contact with the infected people. The spread of the virus is faster than expected. The best way to prevent the virus is to protect our nose and mouth. Before the outbreak, the daily output of masks in China was about 20 million. After the closure of Wuhan city, there was a lot of scarcity of masks.

In order to alleviate the shortage of masks, prevent the spread of the pandemic and respond to the government’s call to relieve the pressure of insufficient supply of social masks, Foshan United Medical Technology Ltd (UMT) has purchased mask production equipment under the leadership of the company’s decision-making leaders and will add a new production line of medical surgical masks.

It will use the resources of the existing 100,000 class clean area production plant and organize personnel to produce professional medical masks.

With the joint efforts of the company’s staff, technical personnel, production and quality personnel, the company will soon produce the first batch of masks, which will greatly alleviate the shortage of medical masks.

In the race against the novel coronavirus, UTM will speed up the production of masks, strictly grasp the production standards, ensure the quality of masks, ensure the health and safety of the public, continue to carry forward the spirit of enterprise responsibility, weave a dense guardian network for the safety of the people’s lives, and help win the pandemic battle.

New product : Silver alginate wound dressing SEQUA™ sorb Ag

A wide range of non-antimicrobial wound dressings is being used for managing non-infected chronic wounds. They promote wound healing by generating and maintaining a moist environment. Alginate wound dressings are the best example that are used in the management of exudating wounds. Antimicrobials, such as silver are incorporated into the alginate wound dressing for treating at-risk or infected chronic wounds. Alginate wound dressings impregnated with silver have significant benefits in wound care. It ensures the bioavailability of silver at the wound site for a long period of time. This minimizes the nursing time, thus cutting down the healthcare cost. Alginate wound care also reduces the patient’s discomfort which is common during dressing change. Also, silver-containing alginate wound dressings are effective against a wide spectrum of microorganisms.

Silver alginate dressings are best for

Chronic wounds, such as diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, arterial leg/foot ulcers.
Systemic infection, involving severe sepsis and multiple organ dysfunctions.
In cases of infected acute or chronic wounds obstructed from healing by microorganisms, a silver dressing reduces bioburden.
In cases of acute or chronic wounds at a high risk of infection or re-infection, a silver dressing acts as an antimicrobial barrier

No symptoms of localized, spreading or systemic infection;
Surgical/small acute wounds at low risk of infection;
