Happy Canada Day! We're happy to be participating with our Covidstop Initiative with Canadian Heritage Canada Day celebrations in putting together the innovating together video. It's certainly a unique Canada Day celebration.
Shop3D.ca Mississauga Phase 2 Re-Opening
As the province of Ontario beings to enter phase 2 re-opening plans, we're taking a cautious approach to reopening our Mississauga showroom in prioritizing the safety of our staff and customers at the expense slightly reduced convenience for in store purchases.
Starting this week, we will be re-opening our showrooms for in person visits with some precautions taken.
Visitors are asked to follow the procedures below:
In the next few days we'll also be launching our new virtual showroom visits for any visitors who would like to tour our showroom from the safety of their home offices.
We also have a new version of flat packed face shields available from our manufacturing partners.

We've partnered up with a local Manufacturer in Canada to commercially manufacture a small run of quality face shields using industrial manufacturing techniques.
They are secured with a Velcro strip for easy application and removal and are lightweight and comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.

Due to the severe shortage of PETG sheets in the industry with many big suppliers coming into play and more PPE groups out there snapping up the supply, it's been difficult to ramp up production for the Covidstop Team.
Luckily we still have a donor that regularly delivers 0.5mm PETG sheets that we are refining manually every week into face shields however this does mean that we no longer have an immediate demand for face shield components in a hurry. Therefore we have decided that as our FS production is steadily moving ahead we can focus on making earsavers as a concurrent product.
Get them here for free for Healthcare Workers.
If you're not a healthcare worker, you can still order them here. All proceeds go towards supplying free earsavers and faceshields for frontline staff.

Its been 2 weeks since we've launched Covidstop.ca and I'm really humbled by all of the community support and thanks. We've sent out over 600 face shields and are aiming for at least 2400 more in the next few weeks.
We've updated the design from version 1.7 to 2.5 with a ton of improvements and usability and all around print-ability. Everyday, we see about 300 frames come in from the volunteers and it really goes to show the power of crowd-sourced volunteering.
At this point, we are running into some bottlenecks with the supply and cutting of PETG sheets. This is a common theme that we are seeing amongst many volunteer groups. We are hoping to mitigate some of this by adding more industrial partners and sponsors.

Our Team has been working around the clock for the past week. We've heard your feedback and inquiries. It's clear now that there is no shortage of Canadian Community support and we're happy to announce our new initiative to support canadian makers in getting face shields and other PPE to where it's needed most.
We've launched CovidStop.ca today!
We're putting our own dollars to support Canadian Makers in making faceshield for the medical community. We've compiled a design, instructions and the Shop3D.ca team will reach out to hospitals who can simply place orders for face masks and we'll collect them from volunteer printers at our expense.
The biggest hurdle for people looking to help was that there was no concise information on where we can find files and which institutions need it the most. We're taking it on to help solve this by leveraging our logistical expertise.
Join us to today to make some face shields for the community!
