Amy Barnard used to work as a biomedical engineer at a hospital in Green Bay, Wisc. Sometimes she would help fix medical equipment used for patients with infections. She often had to don a mask for this, along with gloves, booties, coveralls and more. Afterward, much of that personal protective equipment, or PPE, went right into the trash.

Then the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

Suddenly, thousands and thousands of people were getting sick from the contagious disease. Almost as suddenly, PPE supplies started to dry up.

“Hearing that they did not have enough was really tugging at my heart,” Amy says. Her current company, Therma-Tron-X, had already started to make face shields for a local hospital. She and her husband Daniel wanted to do more.

“Everyone is focusing on how to make PPE faster,” she thought. “What about the ability to reuse it more safely?” In late March, she sketched out an idea for a small sterilization unit. Her husband scaled up its size. Then he called his cousin Andrew. “Do you need a COVID idea?”
