Risk and measures

Risk or hazard
Health risk / other
Official description
The product bears a CE marking but is not certified as protective equipment by a relevant body. Additionally, the particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured value ≤ 88 %), the elastic cords of the mask easily detach and the mask does not properly adapt to the face leading to an insufficient total filtration capacity (measured mean value ≤ 39 %). 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.
