Hazard

The particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured values: as low as 54%). Additionally, the product's packaging bears a CE marking but not the product itself, which is not certified as protective equipment by a relevant body. Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation and with the relevant European standard EN 149.

Measures taken

  • Withdrawal of the product from the market — Importer

Product description

White particle filter mask in a white/blue box. Each packaging unit contains 10 masks. The CE marking was affixed as an addition. The product is also sold online.
