- The only 3-ply cloth face mask which allows for better breathability and protection. Unlike polypropylene, the mask automatically fits the contours of your face. This leaves a slightly more breathable mask, while requiring less ‘fiddling’ to ensure that liquid droplets and air aren’t going around the mask. This can often happen with surgical or 3-ply masks that can’t be fitted.

- Face Mask with two comfortably-fitted elastic bands. Hold the mask in your hand with the nosepiece or top of the mask at fingertips, allowing the headbands to hang freely below hands. Bring the mask to your nose level and pull the top strap over your head so that it rests over the crown of your head. Pull the bottom strap pull over your head so that it rests at the nape of your neck.
- The strings or elastic bands are positioned properly to keep the mask firmly in place.
- The mask covers the nose, mouth, and chin.
- Mask should be washed after every use.
These masks will not meet the NIOSH N95 standards, as they are’t designed to filter tiny particles (e.g. of sand etc). As of current research, the primary way the coronavirus spreads is through fluid droplets, which this mask is effective at blocking.
Please note that although many medical institutions and nursing homes do prefer these over a standard surgical mask, they are not yet certified by the FDA. This is in process. However, under the FDA EUA, medical facilities may replace NIOSH approved N95 during the current shortage.
