With increasing demand for face masks to contain transmission of deadly COVID-19 virus, an IIT-Delhi startup has launched an antimicrobial and washable face mask that can be reused upto 50 launderings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NSafe mask is a three-layered product. It consists of an inner hydrophilic layer for comfort, the middle layer having antimicrobial activity, and the outermost layer having water and oil repellent behaviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NSafe is the first fabric-based antimicrobial face mask launched in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NSafe mask has 99.2% bacterial filtration efficiency (at 3 microns) and has very high Bacterial Filtration Efficiency, as tested according to ASTM standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mask is engineered to have very good breathability and comfort<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has been designed to maximize durability and dimensional stability. The mask can be reused 50 times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, effective reusability is an important factor as single-use masks cause huge disposal issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mask provides extreme comfortability and breathability. Elastic band in the chin region and wire in the nose region provides an adequate fit of the mask to the wearer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
