One of the most challenging
aspects of the prolonged global restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic,
is certainly the rule of social distancing. It makes matters even worse when it
involves the elderly, who are far from their loved ones in nursing homes. It’s
unbelievable, but sadly true, that many of them have not been able to see their
relatives for months on end. Even now that restrictions have been loosened up,
physical contact is still strictly forbidden.
Thanks to the co-operation
between Feldman ST and COLINES®, we donated a supply of 35 micron transparent
CPP film (extruded on one of our lab-lines) to one of our local nursing homes,
in order to create a partitioned hugging room. This allowed the elderly guests
of the retirement home to finally meet their loved ones and hug them in fully
risk-free situation, for the first time after one year.
“This
is extremely touching – comments COLINES’ CEO Anthony Caprioli – and we are
really happy for having been able to make so many people’s desire come true.
Together with Feldman ST, we gave them the chance to feel close once again to
their loved ones, as the protection of CPP film allowed them to enjoy the warm
feeling of a sincere hug”.
