SISU: DOING OUR PART TO HELP

March 27, 2020

This is an article about portfolio company, Akervall.

Mouthguard manufacturer Akervall Technologies Inc. has shifted from making dental protection for medical, athletic and military markets to protective face shields for the medical community in desperate need of supplies to keep safe as they fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
