CPP film for a hug room

One of the most challenging aspects of the prolonged global restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic is certainly the rule of social distancing. It makes matters even worse when it involves the elderly, who are far from their loved ones in nursing homes. It’s unbelievable, but sadly true, that many of them have not been able to see their relatives for months on end. Even now that restrictions have been loosened up, physical contact is still strictly forbidden.

Thanks to the co-operation between Feldman ST, Colines donated a supply of 35 micron transparent CPP film (extruded on one of our lab-lines) to one of our local nursing homes, in order to create a partitioned hugging room. This allowed the elderly guests of the retirement home to finally meet their loved ones and hug them in fully risk-free situation, for the first time after one year.
