Scottish firm switches tack - from satellite launchers to face shields

Business operations manager Derek Harris said: It was a bit more of a challenge than we expected. At first we thought we can make these and hand them out but then we realised we needed to get the correct licences and source the correct customers. We worked closely with the government and local care homes and our team deployed into different areas and we made it work.
