Among all the demands for medical devices, life support equipment, such as patient monitors and ventilators, is the most urgent. To mitigate the emergency and save more lives, MEAN WELL quickly planned for its headquarters in Suzhou (SZMW) to adapt special production lines for the mass production of medical equipment. Meanwhile, SZMW's original production capacity was allocated to its factories in Taiwan and Guangzhou. These medical supplies are now the priority, and distribution will begin on May 1st.
As a leading power supply brand, MEAN WELL has long been deeply involved in the medical power supply industry. Currently, its entire product portfolio in the medical sector covers more than 500 models (1-1200W). Kevin Chen, MEAN WELL's Chief Operating Officer, says,
“MEAN WELL's production rate resumed at 100% by the end of March. However, many components still could not be procured on time due to country lockdown policies. To address this issue, we launched the 'One Component Saves One Life' initiative, pooling all our resources. Without the strong support of our supplier partners, the key components for medical power supplies could not have been successfully obtained. After coordinating with all customers and local government power supply providers, MEAN WELL immediately reorganized the production lines at three factories and worked overtime to meet the demand. We are doing everything we can to help. Let's fight the pandemic together!”
MEAN WELL's Marketing Director, Alex Tsai, notes: “Every power supply carries a life. The epidemic is far worse than expected. However, MEAN WELL is fully prepared and committed to rapid manufacturing and distribution. I thank all colleagues, suppliers, efforts, and the support of our distribution partners. This war with the pandemic will end. Let's fight together! Turn your face to the sun, and all the shadows will be left behind.”.
“We are proud to be a 'Taiwan Brand' and to have the largest market share in the world's power supply industry. MEAN WELL has focused on the industrial power supply market for nearly 40 years and has won the Taiwan Excellence Award for several consecutive years.”.
MEAN WELL is ready to help clients and local governments overcome difficulties and address the critical shortage of medical equipment. Let's unite and save lives. MEAN WELL is helping! Taiwan is helping!
OLFER Electronics announces that we are joining the enormous effort and work that MEAN WELL is carrying out in the manufacture of medical power supplies and to be able to distribute all these devices as quickly and efficiently as possible, which can save lives in this daily fight against COVID-19.
