China, which until recently was the main exporter of protective masks, is now struggling with limited access to these products. - Due to the current epidemiological situation in China, we are observing a greater interest in buying masks, gloves and disposable protective clothing. We also get information about a high demand for machines for the production of this type of article - says Andrzej Juchniewicz, head of the PAIH office in Shanghai.
As Andrzej Juchniewicz points out, one of the companies that responded to this demand is a Polish company. Miamed is a producer of dermocosmetics and a distributor of specialized, safe and high-quality masks. PAIH offices in Shanghai and Chengdu introduced the Polish company to our contacts, which led to a contract being signed for over 16,000. masks.
- We helped in price negotiations, informed about cultural conditions and also prepared the necessary export documentation - says Juchniewicz. He explains also that the masks have the highest safety certificate (FFP3) thanks to a HEPA filter.
- Miamed masks are consist of a filter and an exhalation valve. They are an effective protective barrier against even the smallest particles – such as viruses or bacteria. Air inhaled from the environment passes through a five-layer filtering material, where it is cleaned of harmful particles. Exhaled air is, in turn, removed through the valve and partly through the body of the mask - explains Anna Madejska, Miamed’s Sales Director.
Cooperation with PAIH, gives above all, a sense of security during trade negotiations. The agency’s employees act as a liaison, give support and guidance - emphasizes Anna Madejska. A representative of the Polish company reveals that Miamed intends to widen its expansion - Entering China was a big step towards export. We are now conducting talks in Asia, Europe and Saudi Arabia -she adds.
