How can anti-pollution face masks help?

Without a layer of protection between you and the elements that cause you harm, you are vulnerable and your health is at risk.

Nowadays, there are numerous types of face masks available on the market. The decision can be difficult to make when selecting which one to use, as they all claim to be the best. When it comes to protecting yourself from air pollution, an anti-pollution mask with carbon filter is what you need, because it filters PM2.5 through the carbon activated filter.

Why use an anti-pollution face mask 2.5?

“PM2.5” is a term for Fine Particulate Matter. Particulate matter is a huge concern for your health. These tiny particles in the air reduce visibility and cause the air to appear hazy when levels are elevated. The reason they are a high level of concern is because these fine particles pose the greatest health risk to you.

Our anti pollution face mask 2.5 is able to isolate 99 percent of indoor and outdoor pollution:

• Dust particles
• Ash
• Fog
• Haze
• Fumes
• Vehicle exhaust
• Pollen
• Smoke

These tiny particles can penetrate deep within the lungs and can even get into the body’s bloodstream. Exposure to PM2.5 can even affect a person’s lungs and heart significantly. The larger, coarser PM10-2.5 particles are air particles that irritate a person’s eyes, nose, and throat.
