Great Falls Tribune: ‘Like getting a blanket from grandma:’ Red Ants Pants supplies masks, gowns statewide

In just two months, Red Ants Pants manufactured and sold about 1,500 gowns and 3,000 reusable cloth masks to hospitals, dental offices, highway patrol units and other businesses statewide.


Calhoun said manufacturing PPE in Montana is efficient and she is able to personally deliver some orders. “It’s classic Montana – taking care of your neighbors and communities,” she said.

Red Ants Pants sold 50 gowns and a few hundred cloth masks to Mountainview Medical Center in White Sulphur Springs.

Rob Brandt, CEO of the medical clinic, said the local PPE products are a source of pride for patients and staff.
