The particle/filter retention of the material is insufficient (measured values: as low as 83%). Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements; thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect. Furthermore, the physical resistance of the filtering material is too high (measured values of exhalation resistance: up to 3,8 mbar). Consequently, it may prevent a sufficient quantity of air to be exhaled, causing difficulties to breathe.
The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation and with the relevant European standard EN 149.
