What is the danger
The particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured values: as low as 54%). Additionally, the product's packaging bears a CE marking but not the product itself, which is not certified as protective equipment by a relevant body. Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect.
Requirements breached
The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation and with the relevant European standard EN 149.
