NEWBERG, Ore.—A-dec recently announced that the company is manufacturing personal protective equipment (PPE) in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company has been working to develop a variety of PPE products that are in critical need by health care workers.

“For more than 55 years, A-dec has lived by the principle of prioritizing concern for people above all else.” said Scott Parrish, A-dec president and CEO. “As a family-owned, Newberg manufacturer, A-dec is proud to bring much-needed PPE to Oregon’s health care workers. This is what we should be doing during this unprecedented time: working together to solve problems and take care of communities.”

In the wake of the COVID-19, A-dec launched programs and infection control resources to support health care professionals practicing dentistry during the crisis. After being contacted by a local health care worker from Legacy Health with a request for assistance, A-dec employees worked to develop prototypes of needed supplies. Over the course of a week, the company has converted several of its manufacturing areas to produce PPE for health and emergency responder systems in the local area.
