Norwex Reusable Face Mask, graphite

PROBLEM
Nowadays, you can’t be too careful when it comes to protecting your health and those around you. In addition to frequent hand washing and following social distancing recommendations, it is important to further minimize the exchange of sneeze and cough droplets when in public by wearing a good-quality face mask.

SOLUTION
The Norwex Reusable Face Mask with BacLock®* is made using our premium quality microfibre and provides both protection and breathability. Tested and proven to filter 81% of 0.1 micron-sized particles, it is reusable and extremely comfortable wash after wash. 

Not a medical grade mask nor a replacement for medical grade Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

• Slip ear loops behind your ears and adjust center portion to cover your nose and mouth, fitting bottom of mask under your chin. 
• Help young children with proper placement. Not recommended for children under 3 years of age.
• If worn daily, wash in the evening so it is clean and ready the next day. We suggest having multiples so you can easily rotate masks before needing to wash again.

CARING FOR MASKS

• Wash before first use and after every use.
• Launder masks at or below 40°C/104°F. Launder separately or with other lint-free laundry. Dry completely.
• For best results, use a Norwex laundry detergent, which is free from fillers. Do not use bleach, fabric softeners or dryer sheets.
• Shrinkage may occur if masks are machine dried. We recommend air drying to avoid shrinkage.

• Proven to filter 81% of 0.1 micron-sized particles.
• The BacLock* in the cloth—our exclusive micro silver antibacterial agent—offers continuous protection against microbes and odours within the cloth.
• Made from comfortable, silky soft microfibre that provides full coverage. 
• Provides an extra level of personal protection in conjunction with hand washing and social distancing.
• Tested with ASTM F2100/F2299 testing protocols.
• Reusable, saving both money and natural resources.
• Easy to wear.
• More durable than masks made from paper or polypropylene fibre.

• Many airborne contaminants range from 0.1 to 10 microns in size.  A human hair is about 50 microns in diameter.
• Particles ranging in size from 0.1 to one micron are especially hazardous because they can be inhaled easily and can lodge deep within the lungs. Dust, bacteria, mould spores, tobacco smoke, odours, infectious particles and allergens all fall in this size range.
