Will the Moldex Face Masks Prevent Coronavirus?

It is recommended by the UK Government that FFP3 Face Masks are used for helping to reduce the risk of coronavirus being transmitted. Moldex P3 Filters meet these guidelines, are suitable for use with biological agents of risk groups 2 and 3, and will filter 99.95% of harmful particles from the air. P3 filters have 50 times OEL (occupational exposure limit), meaning that they offer maximum protection against dust, smoke and mist.

Please note that wearing P3 Masks and Filters is not an assured way to prevent coronavirus, and no face mask is a replacement for good personal hygiene. Wearing a mask will, however, reduce the risks of harmful pathogens passing through the mask and entering through your nose and mouth.

Should I Clean My Moldex Face Mask and Filters?

We recommend that you clean your Moldex Mask and Filters every single day between use. As the filters are not disposable, they will require cleaning otherwise they could pose a larger risk of becoming blocked. You can clean them with a damp cloth using mild disinfectant.

1. Attach your P3 filters to your mask
2. Place the band over the back of your head and ensure a secure fit
3. Make sure your nose is fully contained by the head piece
4. Replace your filters as soon as they become damaged
