Description

Wholesale Medical Face Mask Type II EN14683:2019 – Certified BFE ≥ 98% for Clinical Use

The Disposable Medical Face Mask 3-ply Type II is the essential non-sterile barrier for environments demanding verified filtration performance and stringent hygiene control. This mask line is fully compliant with the rigorous EN14683:2019 Type II standard, certifying its use in medical, dental, and general clinical settings. The core performance metric, a Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) of ≥ 98% (tested at 3  micron), ensures reliable protection, primarily by preventing the expulsion of droplets and exfoliated material from the wearer into the environment. This makes the mask critical for protecting the operative field against exfoliated epidermis, hair and droplet infections and providing crucial protection for patients against infections from personnel’s noses and mouths.

Verification of Compliance: EN14683 Type II Standard

The EN14683:2019 Type II certification is the European benchmark for medical face masks and signifies a high level of performance that procurement teams can rely on:

• High Filtration Efficiency: The Type II classification specifically mandates a BFE of at least 98%. This high standard ensures that the mask is highly effective at filtering out bacteria-carrying droplets, making it suitable for routine use in the Operating Room (OR), Emergency Room (ER), patient care areas, and during oral and dental procedures where high levels of potential microbial shedding are present.
• Breathability (Differential Pressure): The EN14683 standard also mandates specific differential pressure (Delta P) requirements to ensure the mask is adequately breathable. This balance of high filtration and comfortable respiration is vital for practitioners who must wear the mask for extended periods, minimizing discomfort and promoting compliance.
• Appropriate Applications: The Type II mask is the standard grade for general medical use. Its function is to protect the surrounding environment (the patient, the sterile field) from the wearer, successfully fulfilling its primary role in infection control protocols across clinics, isolation wards, IC practices, and general patient care areas.

Advanced 3-Ply Construction for Optimal Barrier

The mask is constructed with a deliberate 3-ply layering system, using quality materials to optimize both protection and comfort:

• Outer Layer: Made of non-woven material, this layer provides basic fluid resistance, minimizing the passage of large droplets from the outside and protecting the middle filtration layer.
• Middle Layer (Meltblown Filter): This core layer is responsible for the impressive BFE ≥ 98%. Made of highly effective meltblown non-woven fabric, it acts as the primary electrostatic filter, trapping microscopic particles and bacteria.
• Inner Layer: Made of soft, dust-free and hypoallergenic non-woven, this layer is designed to be gentle against the skin and to absorb moisture and exhaled droplets, enhancing wearer comfort and minimizing skin irritation.

Secure Fit and Hygienic Dispensing

Essential design features ensure the mask remains securely in place and is handled hygienically:

• Secure Fit Elements: The mask is secured via comfortable ear loops and features a modelling nose-piece. The embedded nose wire is crucial, allowing the mask to be molded tightly over the bridge of the nose, eliminating the gap through which breath, fogging, and contaminants can escape or enter. This customizable seal enhances both protection and comfort, particularly for eyeglass wearers.
• Ergonomic Dispensing: The packaging design is optimized for institutional use, with the product supplied in an ergonomic cardboard box to remove individual pieces. This dispenser-style box is key to maintaining hygiene, ensuring staff only touch the mask they are about to use, minimizing contamination of the remaining supply in the box.
• Logistical Efficiency: Bulk purchasing is streamlined with individual boxes containing 50 pcs, and master cartons containing 40 x 50  pcs (a total of 2000 units). This high-volume packaging is ideal for large medical institutions, providing cost savings and simplified inventory management.
