DENSO Donates N95 Masks to Hospitals in Michigan, North Carolina

Health care workers battling COVID-19 need our support more than ever. That’s why DENSO’s doing its part by donating nearly 2,000 N95 masks to hospitals in Michigan and North Carolina.

“As the COVID-19 outbreak proliferates, DENSO is continuously evaluating ways it can help reduce the spread of the virus,” said Kenichiro Ito, executive officer of DENSO Corporation and chief executive officer of DENSO’s North American headquarters. “This donation is a small representation of our tremendous appreciation and gratitude for those who need these masks the very most. We commend the selfless health care workers who are on the front lines responding to the virus.”

Our North American headquarters in Southfield, Michigan, is providing over 1,600 of the respirators to Ascension Providence Hospital-Southfield while our thermal manufacturing facility in Battle Creek is giving 300 to Bronson Battle Creek Hospital.

The DENSO team in Greenville, North Carolina, also is donating a small number of the masks to Vident Medical Center, based locally.

DENSO locations across North America, which have already enacted stringent safety measures to help protect our associates, are currently looking into additional opportunities with industry and government partners in which we can further support the broader fight against COVID-19.

We thank you all for your support and patience during this challenging time. It is because of your resilience and flexibility that we will all get through this, together. We will share more updates as they are available.
