Let’s face it, masks are going to be around a while. In fact, under Stage 4 regulations, it is now compulsory for all South Africans to wear one. When combined with social distancing and hand-washing, it forms the front-line defence against the spread of Covid-19. So if you have to wear a face mask, usually for long periods of time, you’ll want one that is as comfortable as it is safe. Here are a number of reasons why a Medmask is a great choice.
It’s just more pleasant to wear than a regular cloth mask. Medmasks with X-Static® stay fresher for longer, even between washes. Pure silver fibres continuously eradicate the odour-causing bacteria that builds up from the heat and moisture of breathing. This makes Medmask a healthier choice compared to regular cloth masks, where bacteria can multiply uninhibited during and after wearing. X-Static® also has a very low resistance to breathing, giving you a cooler, more comfortable performance.
You can modify your level of protection. The double layered mask has a built in pocket for a replaceable Medmask D15, non-woven filter element, giving you three layers of protection. The filter element has been constructed to capture 95% of all droplets >5µm. So if you go for a run on your own, you might want to take it out. If you go grocery shopping, put it in. It’s recommended to use and sterilize the filter five times before replacing.
A big advantage of the design is no more sore ears. Medmask tiebacks and edging are made from a flexible polyester binding for maximum comfort and a tight, versatile fit. Tying a Medmask behind your head means it will always stay in place, unlike other ‘elastic behind the ears’ versions which can cause the mask to slip, as well as hurt and irritate the ears. Medmasks come in a small and large size, for adults and kids.
Like most cloth masks on the market, when you buy a Medmask you’re buying South African. So you’ll be reinvesting in South Africa’s economy, helping to support over 350 seamstress’s jobs.
You’ll also be helping the environment. There’s no need to buy imported, disposable masks if you’re not in healthcare or a high risk occupation. Medmasks are washable and should be laundered regularly. According to Health Minister, Dr Zweli Mkhize, it is preferable that everyone has two masks so they can be interchanged during washing.
With a Medmask you can express your individuality. Medmasks come in a constantly expanding range of styles and colours to suit any outfit or occasion. No more confusion over whose mask is whose.
And finally, it’s a mask your whole company can be proud of. Medmask has deisgners on hand to help you create the perfect print for your company, organisation or school (subject to minimum quantities).
Medmasks are manufactured locally in East London by Time Clothing. For more information visit www.medmask.co.za or call directly on 043 761 2153.
