In the early stages of the pandemic, researchers from the University of Birmingham and King’s College London developed a method to improve the comfort and fit of filtering respirators using device customisation.
The technology has been licenced to MyMaskFit, which has brought about a wide-ranging collaboration of industry partners to bring this technology to life, and produce a medical grade facemask, meeting the exacting requirements of front-line health and social care workers.
Our researchers continue to innovate and deliver solutions for the world’s most pressing problems. Our portfolio of technologies available for licensing can be viewed at https://birmingham.portals.in-part.com.
