Medical   protective   clothing   has   received   a   lot   of   media attention  since  the  Corona  crisis –doctors,  nursing  services, but also social institutions are looking for supplies and stock up on  physical  protection  against  the  COVID19  virus.  Everyone who  cannot  avoid  close  physical  contact  with  other  people needs this clothing for their own safety, but also to protect their counterpart.  FFP-3  masks  are protective  masks  that  also protect  against  viruses.  Until  now,  they  have  mostly  been available  in  one  size  only,  so  they  are  not  comfortable  for everyone  to  wear –especially  those  who  wear  glasses  often feel restricted.

"Many certainly think that comfort is an aspect that can be dispensed with in view of the current challenges," says Managing Director Michael Stöhr. "But: Especially when people  are  in  a  permanent  state  of  emergency  due  to  long working   hours   and   difficult   decisions,   supposedly   trivial aspects  such  as  an  optimized  fit  can  be  significant".  This  not only applies to the already very sensitive field of vision –arm or leg lengths that are too long or too short or cuffs that are too tight also influence the wearer's body awareness. In addition, the correct fit also ensures greater safety. 

In the medical field, it is very important that no gaps are created which, for example, expose  skin  areas.  With  bulletproof  vests,  as  used  by  the police   and   security   services,   a   few   centimetres   can   be decisive.Avalution  has  a  worldwide  unique  database  of  human  body measurements and shapes.
