Tata Steel’s Nest-In producing isolation and quarantine cabins for covid-19 treatment facilities

Chandigarh: As part of its resolve and efforts to strengthen India’s healthcare infrastructure, Tata Steel has designed and developed quarantine cabins and isolation cabins, to enable key infrastructure that can be used to treat Covid-19 patients. The newly designed offerings are also a part of Tata Group’s efforts to fight the pandemic.
Tata Steel has worked on engineering the design and supply chain, and is offering this solution through its brand ‘Nest-In’, part of the Services & Solutions portfolio. This construction solution unit has also leveraged expertise of Tata Steel’s New Materials Business and the Tubes Strategic Business Unit.
Tata Steel is already serving a major order through Nest-In, and is currently in the process of supplying Isolation & Quarantine cabins for a 550-bed isolation facility. The entire facility, which spans 80,000 square feet, is being set-up in just 60 days. Another order for quarantine cabins is being serviced in the north-eastern part of India.
P. Anand, Chief, Services & Solutions, Tata Steel said: “As the nation faces one of the most challenging times in history, it is our endeavour to provide the best physical infrastructure to augment the larger efforts undertaken across the country to treat and contain Covid-19. The quarantine and isolation cabins designed and manufactured by Tata Steel’s Nest-In will be a key aspect of these efforts.
