Pack of 2 KN95 Respiratory Protection Masks PM2.5 - 4 Layers - CE & FDA Certified

Pack of 2 high quality KN95 (equivalent to N95) Respiratory Protection Masks. These Respiratory Masks meet CE and FDA standards and are certified to provide greater than 95% filtration performance. This exceeds the greater than 94% filtration required by FFP2 masks.

The KN95 Respiratory Facemask provides a very close facial fit, reducing leakage around the edges of the mask when the user inhales. When properly fitted, the filtration capabilities of a N95 Respiratory mask exceed those of disposable surgical face masks.

This is an adult-one size mask, and is well suited even for larger faces.

This model has been carefully designed with a 3D shape to ensure a close fit and increased breathing volume of the mask - to make air flow easier and make wearing and breathing more comfortable. The mask has a sturdy metal nose piece to ensure a good fit and an elasticated loop for easy wear and removal. One size. Wearing a face mask can help reduce the spread of virus by reducing airborne viral spread from sneezes and coughs.

This mask does not have a valve. Using an KN95/FFP2 mask with a valve is not recommended for protection against the spread of COVID 19 because the valve is a one way vent that will not keep the exhalation in, so that the exhalation of the weare will be spread.

These masks are made of a 4 ply ultra-fine melt-blown material and PP spun-bonded PP non woven fabric providing a very effective filtration of harmful substances and haze particles (PM2,5 level).

Wearing a face mask helps protect both the person wearing it and others. However, please note that it does not protect 100% and it does not substitute other protective measures such as washing hands, wearing gloves and social distancing.

We at Family Nation are donating a proportion of all purchases made on Family Nation to the Italian Red Cross by procuring and donating high quality, certified face masks to the Italian Red Cross.

KN95 Respirator masks are designed to work for a maximum of eight consecutive hours, while disposable surgical masks are recommended to be replaced every four hours. According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) Respirator masks “are usually discarded after use, but can also be considered limited-use devices, that is, they can be reused for a limited time, unless there is a risk for contamination through the deposition of infection particles on the surface”.

Sourcing high quality, CE certified, factory sealed medical masks at this time is very difficult because they are in such high demand. The cost to Family Nation of these masks was therefore high, but we have decided to discount them to make it more within the reach of the families that need them.
