Following the Movement Control Order, TBU has since scaled down its operations but at that time, also adjusted its production line to now produce simple items like tudungs, protective gowns and boot covers.
The facilities include automatic layout cutting machines and industrial sewing machines, with 75 workers who are skilled at sewing the seat covers. Templates were made from sample units of Boot Covers, Tudungs and Gowns and uploaded to the Automatic Layout Cutting Machine. The final design is approved by the Health Ministry.
TBU expects to be able to produce up to 1,500 pieces daily and has delivered 10,000 pieces in the first batch to the Health Ministry today. The finished goods were delivered to the Ministry of Health by Mohd Shamsor, UMW Toyota Motor’s Director of Marketing.
