Mumford Industries Inc. pivots to fill the gap in protective coverings with upcycled plastic emergency ponchos   

Responding with urgency to the national Covid-19 pandemic, Greenwood County based post industrial plastics recycler and reprocessor, Mumford Industries Inc., have pivoted their recycling and reprocessing operation at their Ninety Six, SC facility to produce Emergency Plastic Ponchos for  those in need during the shortage of PPE.

Mumford Industries Inc., one of the southeast leaders in providing recycling and reprocessing services to manufacturers and distribution centers was in the process of creating a new line to reuse recovered materials when the need for additional protection driven by high demand for surgical gowns became known.

“We have worked quickly to get this production in place to fill the gap for healthcare workers, maintenance people as well as those who work directly with the public and will be going back to work shortly. We are more than pleased to be able to contribute, we are humbled by the opportunity,” said George Mumford, president of Mumford Industries.

The Mumford produced Plastic Emergency Ponchos are made from unused upcycled scrap plastic film. They are disposable, liquid and puncture resistant, one size, 37” L x 60” W, 3 mil in thickness, and made in the USA.
