Our students help making masks

In response to the crisis and in anticipation of the unlockdown period that will begin on 11 May, some Paris district town halls have decided to set up workshops to manufacture masks and visors on their premises.

12 IPAG students have responded to the call from the 15th arrondissement town hall. Alongside other committed citizens, our students gave their time to make masks that comply with Afnor (French Association for Standardisation) standards which are washable and reusable. Guided by engineering students, they also participated in the manufacture of plastic visors using 3D printers. The production of this ephemeral workshop will be distributed to hospital and EHPAD staff who need it most.

Congratulations to our students for their commitment! We are proud of them and of each of the many missions of general interest they have been carrying out since the beginning of this health crisis.
