This rapid growth comes as a result of Nufabrx’s technological innovation and its commitment to the highest regulatory standards. “We do our own cleanroom manufacturing, with everything completed to the same standard as you would expect from any other drug manufacturing company,” Schindler notes. “For example, our head of regulatory standards actually came out of the prescription drug industry working on hydrocodone tablets – that’s the level of rigor that we’ve had to implement into the textile supply chain.” Nufabrx also partners with a number of pharmaceutical companies directly to deliver the precise medical formulation into their garments. Of course, Schindler admits that his company was unable to escape the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, Nufabrx was fortunate that it could transition some of its manufacturing to the creation of PPE face masks. “We created a reusable, antimicrobial, copper mask with shea butter for your skin,” says Schindler. “The mask offers protection and a moisturizing benefit, so it was nice to be able to have a positive impact there.” The ability to rapidly pivot its production to support people in need during the pandemic is indicative of a company that is comfortable thinking outside the box. In coming up with its innovative solutions, however, Nufabrx is certainly indebted to the support of its partners, including Manufacturing Solutions Centre, a local non-profit incubator designed to promote and grow the domestic textile industry. “Southpaw Screen Printing and Embroidery has been another great resource for us in terms of the screen printing and heat seals for all the Nufabrx logos we use,” Schindler adds. “It’s great to be able to utilize a local partner – one that’s within 15 minutes of our location!” Nufabrx will continue leveraging these partnerships to support its local community and deliver innovative products.
