This contribution comes as a part of a project initiated by the Sri Lanka Apparel Exporters Association (SLAEA) and Joint Apparel Association Forum Sri Lanka (JAAFSL) where around 12 major apparel manufacturers have come together to supply and donate over 2 million protective masks to government medical service personnel, Omega said in a media release. 
All companies under its group - Omega Line Ltd, Sirio Ltd, Alpha Apparels Ltd, and Benji Ltd are engaged in this, with Teejay Lanka PLC providing the major portion of the required fabric. “It’s our obligation and responsibility to help doctors, nurses, and other frontline health care professionals fighting the coronavirus disease. We have taken measures to manufacture and contribute protective masks and clothing across the country. We pay tribute to our healthcare workers for their bravery, dedication and sacrifice,’ said Omega Line group.
The group has also agreed with JAAFSL to manufacture and supply protective clothing and one of its companies has already begun production for the hospitals in the northern region of the country.
Omega Line group has contributed to the industry as well as the country for the past 21 years, and presently has a workforce of over 13,500 employees with a strong engaging and empowering culture. It plays a pivotal role in many social responsibility activities and sustainability projects.
