Product Information

Early on, the WHO, CDC and the UK government all advised against the general public wearing face coverings – but each of these bodies now recommends that people wear cloth coverings in public places where social distancing cannot be observed. The masks, which are commonly used by medics, are classified for single shift use – marked NR (not reusable) or R, re-usable (more than one shift). According to University College London’s Plastic Waste Innovation Hub, if just half of the UK’s population used one disposable mask per day for a year, that adds up to around 12 billion masks a year, creating more than 30,000 tonnes of contaminated plastic waste.

It is also important to choose a mask that does not have a plastic valve on the front or side, as some FFP masks do. It’s not the cheapest FFP2 mask but, at 2 for €16, it’s decent for an option that values decent looks.

FFP2 protection is perfect for those who are working as plasterers or dealing with cement, but there is also FFP3 protection, which deals with environments that have high levels of fine dust. They should not replace other important measures such as hand hygiene and distancing, but are intended to compliment them.An FFP3 disposable mask combined with social distancing and frequent hand washing can offer optimal protection against potential virus transmission. Therefore, FFP3 masks without exhalation valves are considered suitable in controlling the spread of respiratory tract viral or bacterial infections, such as Corona Virus or Tuberculosis infections. The World Health Organization greatly emphasizes wearing FFP masks as masks help in effective interruption of airborne infections.

While an uninterrupted supply of FFP3 respirator masks is certainly good news, it also means you’ll come across entirely new and unfamiliar brands on the market.
