In current challenging times, Singapore based Novena Global Lifecare (NGL) pivots its business and is now appointed by the various Government's Coronavirus task force to support with both sourcing and compliance management across a number of medical supplies.

NGL has now mobilised medicals teams, with over 200 dedicated staff to supply PPE materials globally. In Singapore, NGL is now able to distribute medical grade equipment such as Ventilators, Hand Sanitizers, Face masks, Surgical Gowns, Protective eyewear and COVID-19 test kits.

Even with the commendable initiatives taken by the Singapore government's to locally produce and distribute quality reusable masks that has a BFE of 98.5%, NGL continues to establish as a source channel to ensure the accessibility to high-grade, CE & US FDA certified masks to the general public.

With the circuit breaker concluding on June 1 and the masses head back to offices with measures, the continual protection to ensure one's safety remains pertinent. Disposable masks are still a good idea for hygiene purposes and with BFE >=99% & PFE>=98%, one is assured to be protected.

In addition, NGL has now even secured provision to KN95 Masks alongside its N95 as an alternative. With N95 allocations to key medical personal in most countries, the US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says KN95 masks are as effective as N95 masks and are one of the many "suitable substitutes" for N95 masks that are "in short supply". Regulated by the Chinese government, they are almost identical in performance to N95 masks and in the case of a shortage of epidemic prevention resources, KN95 can play the same protective role as an N95 mask.
