Type 2R protective masks are premium surgical masks that provide increased protection against airborne particles, such as viruses and bacteria. These masks are designed for use by healthcare professionals, but they have also become an essential accessory for the general public since the COVID-19 pandemic.

What is a type 2R protective mask?

Type 2R protective masks are high-quality surgical masks that meet European standards for respiratory protection. They are designed to protect the wearer from airborne particles, such as viruses and bacteria, as well as to protect others from splashes of potentially infectious liquids.

Type 2R protective masks are designed to be disposable and should not be reused. They are available in different sizes to fit all face shapes.

The advantages of type 2R protective masks

Type 2R protective masks offer many advantages compared to basic protective masks:

• Increased protection: Type 2R protective masks provide increased protection against airborne particles, such as viruses and bacteria. They are capable of filtering at least 98% of 3 micron particles.
• Comfort: Type 2R protective masks are designed to be comfortable to wear for long periods of time. They are equipped with a flexible nose strip for an optimal fit and soft ear elastics to prevent irritation.
• Ease of use: Type 2R protective masks are easy to use. Simply place them on the face, adjust the nose strip for an optimal fit, and secure the soft elastics behind the ears.

How to use a type 2R protective mask?

To use a type 2R protective mask, it is important to follow the following steps:

• Wash your hands with soap and water or hydroalcoholic gel before touching the mask.
• Remove the mask from its packaging, taking care not to touch the inside of the mask.
• Place the mask on your face, making sure to cover your nose, mouth and chin.
• Adjust the nose strip for an optimal fit.
• Secure the soft elastics behind the ears.
• Avoid touching the mask while wearing it.
• When you are ready to remove the mask, remove it by grasping the elastics and avoiding touching the front of the mask.
• Discard the mask immediately after removing it.

Surgical-grade Type 2R protective masks are a preferred option for protecting the wearer and others from airborne particles. They offer increased protection compared to basic protective masks, while being comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.

It is important to follow the instructions for use to ensure that the mask is effective and is used safely. Type 2R protective masks must be disposable and must not be reused.
