Particle filter mask

What is the danger

The particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured values: as low as 82,5 %). Consequently, an excessive amount of particles or microorganisms might pass through the mask, increasing the risk of infection if not combined with additional protective measures.

Requirements breached
