The U.S. textile industry has redefined the meaning of “material matters.”
Textile executives have united to produce critical personal protective equipment for hospitals and health-care workers fighting the coronavirus pandemic in the U.S., according to the National Council of Textile Organizations , a Washington, D.C.-based trade association that represents the U.S. textile industry.
NCTO president and ceo Kim Glas, said, “Coordinating with local hospitals, health-care organizations, the entire U.S. production chain and federal agencies, the textile industry has been at the forefront of the incredible manufacturing effort, contributing to the country’s rapid response to the rising needs of frontline workers.
“Together we are achieving a monumental task, which has resulted in the manufacture and delivery of millions of masks already with hundreds of millions more to come soon. Apparel industry leaders, particularly the consortium members, have successfully turned on a dime to meet the greater good of society.
