nir-vana innovation network

This producer of plastic products and provider of consulting and advisory services from northwestern Poland specialises in synthetic materials. It helps companies optimise their production processes; it devises and finds the most efficient solutions to their problems, customised to their needs. The firm not only advises but can also manufacture products according to the agreed method. Or it can oversee the implementation process of the new technology so partners can produce required synthetic items themself. Its services allow companies to reduce costs by outsourcing this specific part of business operations related to plastic engineering and synthetic materials. The firm has some international experience as it's been cooperating with partners from the Former Soviet Union.

Drawing on its experience, the company is expanding its activities and looks for agents or distributors of their synthetic nose bridges (wires/clips) for disposable three-ply earloop face masks. The profiles are soft and flexible. They make masks more stable and less porous, resulting in a safer, more comfortable product that is a perfect antifog solution for glass wearers. Both agents and distributors should be current suppliers of mask producers in their countries and have good contacts among/access to them. They will have to promote the product through their channels and find new customers for them. The firm will be, in turn, responsible for supplying the profiles in the ordered quantity and agreed time, and delivering them to the partner and/or directly to the final customer (masks producer). Other details will be discussed and agreed during the negotiations between the parties.

Advantages & innovations

- the offered synthetic nose bridges (wires/clips) help secure face masks in their place, prevent their movement or unwanted exposure of nose and mouth. - the product is soft and flexible; therefore, it can be easily adjusted to one's specific face shape. - at the same time, the product is very durably due to the properties of the synthetic material used to make it. - by making a face mask tighter/adhering more closely to a face, and thus limiting the amount of hot air that goes through the top of a face mask, the brides stop glasses from fogging. - the company's experience of working with synthetic materials and cooperating with international partners. - short delivery time thanks to the favourable location near the Polish-German border and Baltic Sea (international waterways). - competitive prices thanks to relatively low labour and production costs in Poland.
