10:15 AM EST - Maitri Health Technologies Corp. : Announced the availability of N95 medical-grade protective masks, one of the few, domestically manufactured N95 masks to receive Health Canada certification. N95 masks are among the most in-demand and difficult to source pieces of personal protective equipment (PPE) commonly used by hospital, healthcare and other frontline workers. N95 masks filter out at least 95 per cent of very small particles, including airborne droplets. Maitri's N95 masks, manufactured in Port Coquitlam, B.C. through an exclusive partnership with INNO Lifecare, were approved by Health Canada in March. "Maitri is delivering what governments and organizations across Canada have sorely needed and requested since the beginning of the pandemic – a domestically manufactured and certified N95 mask," said Andrew Morton , CEO of Maitri. "Only a handful of Canadian companies have been approved to build and sell N95 masks here and we've immediately added this lifesaving PPE to our healthcare security platform."
