Toyota Tsusho Corporation ('Toyota Tsusho') announces that it has provided 10,000 sets of medical personal protective equipment (isolation gowns) to the City of Nagoya Health & Welfare Bureau.

This is a part of the Kokoro Hakobu Project being undertaken by Toyota Motor Corporation and other Toyota Group companies. The bureau will subsequently supply these gowns to medical organizations within the City of Nagoya.

To contribute toward addressing equipment shortage at medical frontlines dealing with COVID-19, Toyota Tsusho decided to manufacture and provide good quality medical personal protective equipment with high functionality together with Toyota Tsusho Group companies Toyotsu Vehitecs Co., Ltd. and Toyota Tsusho Matex Corporation using sewing and manufacturing technologies developed through the manufacturing of automotive textile products such as airbags.

Going forward, as a member of the Toyota Group, Toyota Tsusho will continue to offer support toward preventing the spread of COVID-19.
