On April 2, 2020, ISPA was informed that the State of New York urgently needs Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), specifically masks and gowns. Gowns help protect you from the contamination of clothing with potentially infectious material. Surgical masks help protect your nose and mouth from splattered of body fluids, respirators filter the air before you inhale it..

The state has also offered to pay your costs to convert your facility to make these products. Please submit your offer to supply either or both of these products directly to the State of New York by clicking this link:  https://esd.ny.gov/sourcing-covid-19-products-nys

We will inform the industry as we receive similar requests for assistance.
