KANSAS CITY, Mo. — One business on the Country Club Plaza is helping health care workers by printing personal protective equipment.
3DHQ, a 3-D printing company, is running its printers around the clock to complete 400 orders from local hospitals, clinics and health care workers who would like to obtain masks.
Nick Nikkhah, 3DHQ owner and founder, said that demand is “pretty high.”
“Obviously, it started out as nurses, frontline individuals, health care workers, everyone because their locations did not have enough protection for them they were running out and wanted it to protect themselves,” Nikkhah said, “and then it kept snowballing.”
One face mask takes six hours to print. All the proceeds are going into making more PPE.
