FABRIC is a fashion incubator with a non-profit called AZ Apparel foundation that has also become an FDA certified PPE manufacturer to help mitigate the current PPE shortage.
We have secured the scarce AAMI-approved materials required to make safe, effective, reusable Level 1 and Level 2 isolation gowns.
We have requests for millions of PPE items.
We can make 2000/week and are already filling orders.
With your help we could make 25,000+ reusable gowns a week that can be washed 70-300 times (depending on the fabric)! That's eqiuivalent to up to 7,500,000 disposable gowns!
That would put a pretty good dent in the need but with your help, we can do even more. Read on to learn about all of the ways that you can help us keep our healthcare workers safe with an effective, sustainable, locally-made, long term solution.
Be a part of the solution and help equip our healthcare heroes with the protective gowns they need NOW! Join us in a community grassroots effort to reduce the PPE shortage by creating medical gowns for our health care heroes. FABRIC (an FDA registered entity) and Arizona Apparel Foundation, 501(c)(3) non-profit, have designed an open source gown kit, using readily available substantially equivalent materials, for the home sewing community. With proper care the gowns can be cleaned and reused. Get your kit today! Let’s do this together and be the solution! #HCP1MillionGownChallenge
With the right tools we can increase our own FDA approved PPE isolation gown output from 2000/wk to 25,000/wk! And these gowns are reusable up to 70-300 washes. So, that would be equivalent to 7,500,000 disposble gowns! Help us protect a lot more healthcare workers from COVID-9 with safe, effective, FDA- approved reusable isolation gowns now!
