The easy-to-read e-book is written by Rashmi Thakur, Dipanwita Ray, and Prabir Jana. This eBook is available in the Amazon Kindle store.
While COVID-19 and face masks have become part of our life, so does body coverall for the health workers. As there is an everyday need of these PPE items, manufacturing of the same is in trend in 2021.
Dr. Prabir Jana, Co-author of this eBook said "Numerous webinars were conducted worldwide over PPE and experts shared and brainstormed their views, still there are no ready reference guidelines for manufacturers of face masks and body coveralls." To fill up that gap two professors from the National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) and one NIFT alumnus penned down to write this book.
