3M on pace to make 2 billion N95 masks by year-end, CEO says
Kevin Stankiewicz

Industrial giant 3M is manufacturing more of its N95 respirator masks
than ever before, according to Chairman and CEO Mike Roman. The
company is on pace to produce 2 billion masks by year-end, he added
on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street.”

And with the coronavirus pandemic continuing to flare up around the
world, Roman said, “We’ll continue to add some capacity as we go into
the end of the year, into next year.”

Roman acknowledged that many consumers want to buy N95s, given
their reputation for being highly effective in protecting against infection
from the coronavirus. However, he stressed that medical workers and
other first responders are the priority.

“We’ll continue to look for ways to support consumers, and our
consumer teams are looking at innovative, new mask kinds of
solutions in addition to the N95 respirators, so we’ll work to
respond to that, as well.”
