Difference between medical and non-medical face masks

The difference between medical and non-medical face masks lies in the function. Where a non-medical mask is worn primarily to protect the wearer's environment, a medical mask is worn to protect the wearer against airborne germs and viruses. 

What does FFP3 stand for?

The abbreviation FFP stands for: Filtering Facepiece Particle. An FFP mask is a face mask that filters the air that you breathe in, so that germs, viruses and bacteria cannot get into your airways. FFP masks are divided into three different categories: FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3. The FFP1 masks are the least filtering and the FFP3 masks the most filtering. 

Our medical masks are officially tested and approved according to EN149:2001. The masks of COVID.LIMITED fall in the filter class FFP3. This means that they have a filter efficiency of at least 99% and thus keep 99% of the harmful particles out. Because of the comfortable use and high filter percentage, these mouth masks are mainly used in care institutions and hospitals.

How to wear a medical mask?

When putting on a medical face mask, it is important that you first disinfect your hands with a disinfectant hand gel. Hold the mask in one hand and the elastic bands in the other. Place the FFP3 mask under your chin and pull the rubber bands up to your crown with your other hand. Then you can place the lower elastic band under your ears and place the top of the mask just under your nose bridge. Finally, check that the mask fits snugly around your face and adjust if this is not the case. 

Instruction FFP3 mask

Just as with disposable mouthmasks and cloth facemasks, it is important when wearing a medical mask to touch the outside as little as possible. While wearing the mask, the outside of it can get contaminated with viruses and other germs. When touching the outside of the mask, these will end up on your hands and you may still be able to infect yourself. 

What should I do with a used medical face mask?

COVID.LIMITED medical masks are intended for single use and cannot be washed. When you have finished wearing your medical mouth mask, take it off by gripping the mask and putting the elastic bands over your head. Then dispose of the mask with the residual waste and immediately disinfect your hands with disinfectant hand gel or soap and water.
