Thin and Light
Comfortable breathing and excellent ventilation through light fiber materials
Fibertex Nanofiber Filter
Highly effective in absorption of odors, smoke and liquids
Ergonomic Design
Nose support design prevents slide down and condensation
Based on this comparison, it is reasonable to consider China KN95, AS/NZ P2, Korea 1st Class, and Japan DS FFRs as “equivalent” to US NIOSH N95 and European FFP2 respirators, for filtering non-oil-based particles such as those resulting from wildfires, PM 2.5 air pollution, volcanic eruptions, or bioaerosols (e.g. viruses). However, prior to selecting a respirator, users should consult their local respiratory protection regulations and requirements or check with their local public health authorities for selection guidance.
