Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these masks reusable?

No, the HPC Healthline 3-Ply Face Masks are designed for single use and should be disposed of after each use or when they become damp or soiled.

What does Type IIR mean?

Type IIR is a classification under the BS EN 14683:2019 standard, indicating that the mask offers high fluid resistance and is suitable for medical environments where exposure to splashes of blood or other bodily fluids is possible.

How should I dispose of used masks?

Used masks should be carefully removed and disposed of in a waste bin according to local regulations for medical or general waste, to prevent the spread of potential contaminants.

Can these masks be used for protection against COVID-19?

These masks provide a barrier against droplets and splashes but are not considered respirators (like N95 masks) which are designed for a higher level of filtration and a tighter seal against airborne particles. They can be part of a broader infection control strategy.

What material are the masks made from?

The masks are made from three layers of spunbonded polypropylene, a non-woven fabric commonly used in medical and protective apparel.

How many masks are in a pack?

Each pack contains 50 blue face masks.

Can I adjust the fit of the mask?

Yes, the mask features a bendable, plastic-coated wire nose strip that can be molded to the shape of your nose for a more secure and comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Mask feels too loose

Adjust the elastic ear loops and ensure the nose strip is tightly molded to your nose bridge for a secure fit.

Eyeglasses fogging up

Ensure the nose strip is perfectly molded to the contours of your nose. A tighter fit at the top will help redirect exhaled air upwards.

Difficulty breathing

Ensure the mask is not being worn inside out and that it is properly fitted. If breathing remains difficult, consider removing the mask in a safe environment or consulting a supervisor.

Skin irritation

If you experience skin irritation, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Ensure hands are clean before and after handling the mask.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Wash hands thoroughly before putting on the mask.
  2. Identify the top of the mask (usually indicated by the nose strip).
  3. Place the mask over your nose and mouth, ensuring it covers your chin.
  4. Hook the elastic loops over your ears.
  5. Adjust the nose strip by pinching and molding it to the shape of your nose for a secure and comfortable fit.
