“When we started, it was quite tough and there were days when we had to activate almost everyone,” he recalled. “But now, we are able to keep the team lean so at any one time, it’s a variation of four to 10 people from the different teams.” “Through office in China, it was possible for them to help us procure all the equipment for mask manufacturing,” said the younger Mun. “That was when we thought, ‘Why don't we do something to support local needs?’”

The materials are first layered together before they are cut, inserted with metal nose wires into the front, the corners stamped and ear loops welded all along the fully-automated line.
