March 28, 2020 – Mr. Yuthana Charoenwong, Managing Director of BLCP Power Limited (BLCP), revealed that BLCP recognizes that most medical personnel in public hospitals are facing a shortage of surgical masks. Therefore, BLCP partnered with the Health Promotion Group of Maptaphut Municipality and Village Health Volunteers (VHV) to teach how to make washable fabric masks. Additionally, BLCP collaborated with Mab Chalood Community Fabric Product Enterprise, Huay Pong Market Community Garment Screen Printing Enterprise, Ban Bon Community Fabric Sewing Group Enterprise, Koh Kok VHV Volunteers, and Ban Payoon Small Fishing Boat Laundry Service Group Enterprise. A total of 25 people from these groups joined forces to produce "Washable Fabric Masks Made with Heart, Caring for Society." Production began on March 12, 2020, and the produced fabric masks are now being gradually delivered to public hospitals in Rayong province for distribution to medical personnel and other individuals in hospitals who require them.
"Regarding these washable fabric masks, the company sourced standard fabric certified by BTTG, UK, and Unitika, Japan, ordered directly from Thai Taffeta Co., Ltd. This fabric is capable of filtering down to 0.3 microns, is microfiber, enhances particle trapping, has a fine texture, is lightweight, breathable, quick-drying, and is Clean Room Class 100, washable up to 50 times. Each fabric mask, once sewn, underwent a baking process at 60 degrees Celsius by the Ban Payoon Small Fishing Boat Laundry Service Group Enterprise and was individually packed for subsequent delivery. Therefore, it can be assured that these fabric masks are safe, can be used effectively, and are suitable for the general public, especially the elderly. This initiative contributes to alleviating the shortage of surgical masks and jointly preventing and resolving the spread of the COVID-19 virus."
