Richard Marshall and his Cork Harbour company Marshall Marine Textiles are the Service Arm of North Sails Ireland. 

Richard has been at the forefront of PPE supplies to the HSE and is currently working flat out with his small Team in Cobh.

The work is very specialised as you might imagine and he has invested in some specialist machinery to improve the efficiency of the production.

Boxed and ready to go - Marshall Marine gowns boxed for the front line fight against COVID-19

Right now they are working on an order for over 5000 gowns for the front line and he has already supplied masks, face shields and now they are working on the second large batch order of gowns.

Earlier in the week Richard and the team passed the 10,000 mark in items supplied and here at North Sails Ireland we could not let that go past without celebrating the news.

Thanks, Richard and team for your excellent work and commitment to the cause. You guys are making a difference!
