This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.A small Halifax-area company that has transitioned to making face shields during the COVID-19 pandemic has taken a novel approach that doesn’t involve a production line.

He said once the decision was made to manufacture the shields in May, the company doubled the size of its work force, adding another 25 temporary and full-time workers. The shield design is a collaboration between Spring Loaded and another Dartmouth-based company, Ring Rescue.
