Hazard

After washing, the particle/filter retention capacity of the material reduces significantly (measured values: as low as 69%). Furthermore, the product contains erroneous indications regarding its use, reducing its protective function. 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 Regulation nor with the European standard EN 149.
