Ford Australia donates up to 100,000 medical face shields for COVID-19

Approximately 50 former Ford factory workers are assembling thousands of face shields from locally-sourced parts to help Australian health authorities battle COVID-19. Two facilities on the Broadmeadows site – where the last Ford Falcon rolled off the production line in 2016 – are churning out up to 6000 masks per day, with more than 54,000 made so far since the program began in early April, on the way to a target of 100,000.
