Description
Single use particle half-face filter mask for protection against particles and aerosols, labelled KN95 and FFP2. The brand's name is embossed on the side.
Risk
The particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured value 64,6%). 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. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment Regulation and with the relevant European standard EN 149.
