Different variations on FFP masks

In addition to the FFP2 masks specially mentioned in everyday life, there are also FFP 1 and FFP 3 masks. A distinction is made here mainly in the area of ​​application and permeability. According to this, the FFP1 mask has to filter at least 25% of the testa erosole, with the FFP2 mask it is at least 94% and the filter power for the FFP3 mask is even at least 99%. There are clear prescribed requirements here that are also checked. Whether a particle-filtering mask has passed the detection process can be determined on the CE license plate with a four-digit number on the mask. 

Differentiation in FFP, surgery and fabric masks

In the case of oral protection, a difference is not only between the individual FFP variations, but also between op and fabric masks. A conventional fabric mask has no labeling, since it runs under the term clothing and only protects against droplets when inhaling and the drop in the drop is only reduced and not prevented. In the case of a medical face mask, also called OP mask, the CE marking can be found on the packaging. The surgical mask is used for external protection because it is only slightly protected against aerosols. The FFP2 and 3 mask, on the other hand, completely protects droplets and aerosols and is therefore used for own and external protection. Whether the mask meets the legal requirements can be recognized by the CE marking with a four-digit number on the mask. Certified and approved FFP, and OP masks can be found in different versions of your Altruan Online Shop. In addition to colorful masks or simple whites, we also offer portable FFP and OP masks for children. You can find an illustration for correct use on the Bfarm side.
