Description

This framework agreement for Type IIR Facemasks is divided into two (2) lots. Bidders may submit tenders for a single lot, or all lots available.

The scope of requirements includes but is not limited to the following anticipated Lots:

Lot 1:

- Surgical Type IIR face mask with loops/ties no visor, no anti-fog strip.

Lot 2:

- Surgical Type IIR face mask with loops/ties with no visor and with anti-fogging strip.
- Surgical Type IIR face mask with loops/ties, with visor, with anti-fogging strip.

The products submitted for this framework must meet the specification and all requirements, as set out in the procurement documents.

Please be advised that this framework agreement will not commit any volume and there is no guarantee of any orders. However, the current demand across this category is at circa 14,000,000 eaches per week, but this is likely to change and thus is only indicative.

This contract will be let for an initial 2 year term, with optional extensions to not exceed 4 years in total.
