DISPOSABLE N95 / FFP2 / IS 9473* MASKS

Advance Information*

Overview

The JK Medirise Disposable N95/FFP2/IS 9473* Masks are high-quality respiratory protective devices designed to offer superior protection against airborne particles, ensuring safety and peace of mind. These masks are meticulously engineered to meet the most stringent standards set forth by various authoritative bodies including the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) in the United States, the European Union's EN 149 standard for FFP2 masks, and the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) IS 9473:2002. These masks not only provide robust filtration but also ensure maximum comfort for the user during prolonged wear.

Key Features and Specifications

Material Composition

• Support Layer: Spun Bond non-woven fabric
• Inner Layer: Hydrophilic Layer designed to absorb moisture and increase comfort
• Outer Layer: Hydrophobic non-woven Polypropylene, offering resistance to liquid penetration
• Filter Layer: Electrostatically charged Melt Blown Layer (35 GSM) which enhances the mask's filtration efficiency

Filtration Efficiency

• Particulates Filtration Efficiency: The mask provides a filtration efficiency of ≥95% for particles as small as 0.3 microns. This makes it an ideal choice for filtering out harmful airborne particles, including dust, pollutants, and pathogens.

Breathability and Comfort

• Breathability (Delta P): The mask has a Delta P value of less than 5 mm H20/cm², ensuring that users can breathe easily even when wearing the mask for extended periods.
• Nose Strip: A built-in nose strip ensures that there are no gaps on either side of the mask, providing a secure fit and preventing the leakage of unfiltered air.
• Ear Loops: The ear loops are designed to secure the mask comfortably behind the head, reducing pressure on the ears and enhancing overall comfort.

Safety and Performance Standards

• NIOSH Standards: These masks conform to the rigorous performance, efficacy, and conformance standards set by NIOSH for N95 masks.
• EN 149 FFP2 Standards: The masks adhere to the EN 149 standard laid down by the European Union, ensuring they meet the FFP2 grade for effective respiratory protection.
• Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) IS 9473:2002: The masks meet the specifications outlined in IS 9473:2002 for respiratory protective devices, reaffirming their quality and reliability in the Indian market.

Enhanced Protection Layers

1. Support Layer: Spun Bond Non-Woven Fabric

2. This layer forms the structural framework of the mask, providing strength and durability to withstand regular use without compromising on the mask's integrity.

3. Inner Layer: Hydrophilic Layer

4. The inner hydrophilic layer is designed to absorb moisture, ensuring that the mask remains dry and comfortable against the skin. This feature is particularly beneficial during extended wear, as it prevents the accumulation of sweat and moisture inside the mask.

5. Outer Layer: Hydrophobic Non-Woven Polypropylene

6. The outer hydrophobic layer acts as a barrier against liquid splashes and droplets. This layer is essential for preventing contaminants from penetrating the mask and ensuring the wearer is protected from environmental hazards.

7. Filter Layer: Electrostatically Charged Melt Blown Layer (35 GSM)

8. The central filtration layer is comprised of melt blown polypropylene, which is electrostatically charged to capture and trap microscopic airborne particles effectively. This layer is pivotal for achieving the mask’s high filtration efficiency and provides the essential protection required for N95/FFP2 standards.

Comfort and Fit Features

• Nose Strip

• An adjustable nose strip ensures that the mask conforms snugly to the contours of the wearer’s face. This feature is crucial for preventing any gaps that could allow unfiltered air to enter, thus enhancing the overall efficacy of the mask.

• Ear Loops

• The masks are equipped with specially designed ear loops that secure the mask firmly behind the head. Unlike traditional ear loops that exert pressure
