What is the Airific 2.0 face covering made of?
The Airific is one of the best pollution masks consists of three layers. In the middle layer, we use an electro spun nanofiber media to provide a higher level of safety and protection and filter down to particle sizes up to 0.1 micron (including respiratory droplets and pollutants such as bacteria, pollen and other allergens) as small as 0.1 micron in size.
Each face covering’s middle-layer media is estimated to contain over 25km of nanofiber in an area less than 1mm thick.
The inner and outer layers are made of all-natural fabrics namely cotton, linen, hemp and flax.
