The mask, similar to a regular mask, uses a filter similar to a ventilator to provide adequate protection against viruses, bacteria, pollen, aerosols and dust. The mask is made of neoprene with silicone fillings, which allows it to not slip on the skin. You can wear the mask without changing the filter for up to 48 hours.
