As the Coronavirus pandemic continues to spread, more and more companies each day are lending a hand to aid in the cause. Several members of The North American Laminate Flooring Association (NALFA) are providing direct assistance to those in need during this crisis.
Mohawk Industries has commissioned two of their production facilities to create much-needed medical gowns and face shields for healthcare workers, local law enforcement and first responders in the North Georgia area. The company is manufacturing 8,000-10,000 face shields per day and is ramping up to produce 5,000 gowns per day. Over 46,000 medical gowns and 68,000 face shields have been produced and shipped to date. Mohawk is also supporting their retailer partners with information on available resources through their COVID-19 Response Resource Center available on their website. Each week, retailers receive the Mohawk Retail Digest with a section for resources and business tips during this unprecedented time. Additionally, the company has set up a dedicated email, Government_Relief@mohawkind.com, for customers to send questions about the CARES Act and Mohawk support.
