ABOUT

RAISING THE FLAG FOR
AMERICAN MADE PPE

Our nation’s PPE manufacturers work tirelessly to protect the medical heroes risking their lives on the front line. At APMA, we think manufacturers are heroes, too. We’re honored to support the PPE manufacturers that support our country by producing right here in the USA.

STEPPING UP FOR MANUFACTURERS

“America was built on courage, on imagination and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.”

Harry S. Truman

The novel coronavirus has tested our ingenuity and resilience in unimaginable ways. But when the going gets tough, America always steps up. In the days, weeks and months following the COVID-19 outbreak, manufacturers from coast to coast answered the call for our nation’s medical heroes. By manufacturing protective equipment right here on America’s golden shores, we’re strengthening our economy and providing a critical service for the workers who built this great nation. But just as our medical heroes need protection, so do our manufacturers. The American PPE Manufacturers Association works tirelessly to deliver on that promise.

APMA is the only professional association solely dedicated to growing, supporting and advocating for the American Made PPE industry. Our organization is a helping hand for all companies in the PPE supply chain, empowering them to meet and maintain FDA compliance in a legislative environment that promotes their success. Our three pillar approach—unity, validation and legislative change—is transforming the PPE manufacturing landscape for the better. And our Made in America PPE seal provides crucial validation for organizations that commit to 100% American sourcing and manufacturing.

APMA is the leading organization for manufacturers and partners committed to American-made PPE. We’re committed to bringing PPE manufacturing back to America’s golden shores.
