After a $5-million federal grant, 10 months, and manufacturing 27 million face shields, MPC has returned to its standard business.

However, manufacturers and supply chain experts alike are concerned about the resilience of the supply chain if another health emergency were to strike.

The sudden shortages left policymakers scrambling to lift regulatory barriers and offer emergency funding to domestic manufacturers. But the pivot to allow companies to manufacture items such as plastic face shields, at the speed and scale required, was no easy task, Mr. Yeaman says. “You still have to meet all the federal, provincial requirements and regulations wrapped around it.”
