Ferrari Fights COVID-19 Pandemic By Producing Respirator Valves

Maranello - Ferrari joins the fight against COVID-19, by producing respirator valves and fittings for protective masks.  The Maranello plant’s prototyping department, which specialises in manufacturing thermoplastic components, using additive manufacturing technology, will be producing valves for two companies which themselves have adapted diving equipment for this cause.

Mares, a diving equipment manufacturer and one of the recipients, will receive the tailor-made valves, designed to convert their diving masks into emergency masks to assist patients suffering from respiratory failure.

Other fittings are being supplied to Solid Energy, who will use them to transform Decathlon snorkel masks into aids. These will be used to protect healthcare workers exposed to infection.

Nuovamacut Gruppo TeamSystem, who also helped with the research of the different companies who contributed to this cause, will be handling the logistics of the project.

Within the next few days, Ferrari plans to manufacture several hundreds items of equipment that are already being distributed by some of the companies involved; which will be supplied to various Italian hospitals, including those in Bergamo, Genoa, Modena and Sassuolo. Healthcare workers in the town of Medicina, near Bologna will also receive supplies from the Prancing Horse.
