Doctors Without Borders has already provided more than 200 tons of medical material
Fedrigoni will work with Doctors Without Borders to provide emergency medical supplies to Ukrainian hospitals and training for personnel.
To date, Doctors Without Borders has provided more than 200 tons of medical material including surgical and traumatological kits and drugs for chronic illnesses, while the humanitarian medical organisation has also fitted out a train as an emergency clinic.
Support will also be offered via Doctors Without Borders to refugees fleeing to bordering countries, with the distribution of sleeping bags, warm clothing, and tents, as well as mobile clinical activities for basic and mental health.
“At such a delicate time for the whole world, we wanted to add our contribution to the mobilisation of so many, hoping to bring some relief to the Ukrainian population, which has been hit hard,” Fedrigoni chief executive Marco Nespolo says.
