A Regina-based advertising company has shifted its production focus from signs to face shields. Brad Hertz, co-owner of Sleek Signs in Regina, said he wanted to find a way to get his 32 employees back to work and aid in some way in the fight against COVID-19. So he found a design and a list of eight components needed to manufacture face shields. Hertz said he wasn't able to purchase all the parts he needed, so he reverse-engineered the face shields and found a way to cut down the design to just one material. "We've sold them to large utilities, manufacturers, we've sold them to dentist's offices, and we've also sold them to the City of Boston."
