PROVIDENCE, R.I.: A British company with a factory in Rhode Island has started manufacturing recyclable paper masks it says address two problems brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.
MOO Inc.’s masks, made of heavy gauge cotton paper, can affordably help protect workers at businesses when customers forget to bring a mask, and cut down on trash.
Its a single sheet of paper with no plastic, no elastic, so its completely recyclable, the companys chief operating officer, Nicholas Ruotolo, told The Providence Journal for a story published Monday. Its a great solution to the challenges that we face, both the health challenges and the environmental ones.
MOO, which prints business cards, letterhead, fliers and other business products at its Lincoln facility, can even customize the masks with a company logo.
The company, which began production last week, is donating 5,000 masks to Crossroads Rhode Island, an agency that works with the homeless.
