Respiratory viruses like Coronaviruses primarily target the upper and lower respiratory tracts. It thus prevents human infection by shielding the airway from the particulate matter produced by droplets / aerosols. Contamination of mouth and nose mucous membranes by infectious droplets, or by a dirty hand, often helps the virus to penetrate the host.

A surgical mask is a loose-fitting, disposable device that creates a physical barrier between the mouth and nose of the wearer and potential contaminants in the immediate environment.

If worn properly, a surgical mask is meant to help block large-particle droplets, splashes, sprays, or splatter that may contain viruses and bacteria, keeping it from reaching the wearer’s mouth and nose. Surgical masks are effective barriers for retaining large droplets released from the mouth and nose by the wearer in public.

Surgical masks help reduce exposure of the wearer’s saliva and respiratory secretions to others that could otherwise travel up to 26 feet.Surgical mask also remind wearers not to touch their mouth or nose, which could otherwise transfer viruses and bacteria after having touched a contaminated surface.

Therefore, droplet precautions / airborne precautions using masks are critical when dealing with a suspected or reported case of COVID-19/performing procedures for producing aerosol.

N95 RESPIRATORS

Such masks are respiratory safety devices with high airborne particulate filtration capacity. These masks are designed to achieve a very near facial fit to give the wearer the appropriate air seal. Such masks have high resistance to moisture, good breathability (preferably with an expiratory valve), clearly visible internal and external faces, balanced design with duckbill / cup shape that does not collapse against the head.

Salient Features

• Shape that will not collapse easily.
• High filtration efficiency.
• Good breathability, with an expiratory valve.
• Quality compliant with standards for particulate respirator that can be worn with full- face shield.

KN95 RESPIRATORS

The KN95 is a standard for respiratory equipment which filters 95% of particulates greater than 0.3 microns. KN95 masks are a PPE.

Salient Features

• Mask size : 16cm x 11cm.
• Material : qualified skin-friendly non-woven fabric, hot air-through nonwoven fabric (keep warm), top grade melt-blown fabric (filter).
• The outermost layer is a water blocking protective layer, it is harder than others.
• The layer of melt-blown fabric is the core material, used for barrier and filtration, to ensure excellent filtration performance, we use the highest filtering level and double layers of this.
• The innermost layer is a moisture-absorbing non-woven fabric, which absorbs the moisture from the mouth and nose, and keeps the surface dry and comfortable.

2 PLY SURGICAL MASK

2 Ply Face Mask is made using the best raw material, in compliance with drug and pharmaceutical parameters. It is esteemed around the sphere for its supreme quality, pleasant design and excellent quality.

Salient Features

• Light weight.
• High protection.
• Longer shelf life.

3 PLY SURGICAL MASK

A 3 ply face mask is made of 3 layers of materials consisting of a melt-blown material placed between non-woven cloth. It is the melt-blown material which acts as the filter which prevents the microbes from entering or exiting the mask.

Salient Features

• Air filled cushion to provide safety and comfortable use.
• Suitable for use in respiratory care of anesthesia and resuscitator.
• Body with antistatic property.

4 PLY SURGICAL MASK

Activated Carbon Filter Face Mask, 4 ply is made of Polypropylene Spunbond, Meltblown nonwoven fabric and Active Carbon Filter fabric with adjustable nose strip to give the user maximum comfort and protection.

Salient Features

• Excellent breathability.
• Non irritating, fiberglass free fabric.
• 100% Polypropylene Non-woven spunbond.
• Hypoallergenic.
• Splash Resistant.
• Ultrasonic welding manufacturing process.
