Name
KN95 Folding Protective Mask
Type / model
KN95
Description
Respiratory protective face mask in white and blue packaging with 'KN95' printed in red, pack of 10
Risk
The product advertises a protective potential against particles but its filtering capacity has not been tested by a relevant competent European conformity assessment body. Additionally, it was found that the particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured values: up to 67%), and the mask does not properly adapt to the face. Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation and with the relevant European standard EN 149.
