What is a Respirator?
A Respirator is a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) that acts as a barrier over the mouth and nose in order to prevent the inhalation of hazardous substances and airborne particles. This type of mask is commonly used in industries such as healthcare, construction, manufacturing, mining, or laboratories.
N95, KN95, and FFP2 respirators are available for exportation, which meet the certifications and standards for their geographical location. Disposable respirators come in different shapes, including cone or folded, in order to accommodate different preferences and requirements.
Respirators are manufactured by AdvaCare Pharma, an American-owned pharmaceutical company with extensive experience in worldwide distribution. These respirator masks are produced in CE/ISO-certified facilities, where regular inspections guarantee that our facilities and our products meet stringent health, safety, and environmental standards.

N95 Protective Face Mask
N95 Protective Face Mask is a particulate-filtering facepiece respirator designed to provide effective protection against airborne particles. It is specifically manufactured to meet the stringent standards set by the US National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH-42CFR84).
The N95 face mask is capable of filtering out at least 95% of airborne particles, including fine dust, pollen, bacteria, and viruses.
KN95 Protective Face Mask
KN95 Protective Face Mask is a particulate-filtering facepiece respirator designed to provide effective protection against airborne particles. It is specifically manufactured to meet the stringent standards set by the Chinese National Standard (GB2626-20 06). This type of mask provides equivalent protection as the N95 face mask.
This KN95 face mask is designed to filter out at least 95% of airborne particles, including dust, pollen, bacteria, and viruses.
FFP2 Protective Face Mask
FFP2 Protective Face Mask is a particulate-filtering facepiece respirator designed to provide effective protection against airborne particles. It is specifically manufactured to meet the stringent standards set by the European Standard (EN 149-2001) and has been approved by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN).
This FFP2 face mask is designed to effectively filter out at least 94% of airborne particles, including dust, pollutants, and microorganisms.
Folded
Folded respirator face masks feature a fold-flat shape and have been specially designed to be easily stored and transported when not in use. They can be folded or flattened when not in use.
When needed, folded masks can be quickly unfolded, which extends them in order to cover the nose, mouth, and chin, providing a secure and comfortable fit. The fold-flat style also ensures proper coverage and a tight seal to minimize the risk of inhaling airborne particles.
Cone
Cone respirator face masks feature a cup shape that creates more breathing space for the individual wearing the mask. This shape allows for easy airflow, which reduces the buildup of heat and moisture.
The cup-shaped design also provides a secure seal on the face in order to provide maximum filtration efficiency. These masks often feature adjustable nose clips or foam strips to better seal and prevent air leakage.
Exhalation Valve
Exhalation Valve features a one-way valve mechanism that allows more of the exhaled heat and moisture to escape the mask while filtering any air the wearer inhales. When the individual exhales, the valve opens and releases any heat or moisture that has accumulated. This feature is particularly beneficial when engaged in strenuous activities or when wearing the mask for an extended period of time.
It is important to note that while exhalation valves offer enhanced comfort, they may not be suitable for use in environments where protection against the spread of respiratory droplets is required.
Non-Valved
Non-Valved respirator masks provide excellent protection by filtering both incoming and outgoing air. They are designed to prevent the transmission of respiratory droplets, particulate matter, and other airborne contaminants.
Non-valved respirators provide a high level of filtration efficiency, which typically exceeds 95% for particles of certain sizes. This quality makes them particularly suitable for use in settings where infection control is a top priority.
Ear Loop
Ear Loop closure respirator masks are designed with elastic loops that are stretched to go behind the ears. This closure style allows for easy donning and removal of the mask.
Ear loop closure masks offer convenience and versatility, making them suitable for daily use and ensuring a proper seal for effective respiratory protection.
Head Elastic Strap
Head Elastic Strap closure respirator masks are designed with two elastic straps that go around the back of the head. This closure style is favored by individuals who prefer or require a mask that doesn't put pressure on the ears. The elastic straps more evenly distribute the tension, which reduces discomfort during extended use.

Uses
What is a Respirator used for?
It's used to protect the wearer from inhaling hazardous substances, such as particles, gases, or vapors.
How should a Respirator be worn?
The respirator should fit securely over the nose and mouth, creating a tight seal to prevent the entry of contaminants. The straps or headbands should be adjusted to ensure a snug and comfortable fit. It is essential to follow the instructions and any relevant workplace guidelines on how to properly wear and adjust the respirator.
Are there any storage recommendations for unused Respirators?
It is recommended to store any unused respirators in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, chemicals, or extreme temperatures. They should be kept in their original packaging or a designated storage container to protect them from damage and maintain their effectiveness.
How should used Respirators be disposed of?
It is important to follow the recommended disposal guidelines to minimize the risk of contamination to others and the environment. In general, used respirators should be considered as potentially contaminated and handled with care. They should be placed in a sealed plastic bag or container before disposal.
FAQs
What are the different types of Respirators available?
Respirators are available in three types: N95, KN95, and FFP2. It's important to note that while N95, KN95, and FFP2 respirators offer similar levels of filtration, they may have different design features based on their requirements for certifications.
What are the benefits of folded versus cone Respirators?
Folded respirators feature a compact and portable design, which makes them particularly convenient for storage and transport. Cone-shaped respirators offer a more comfortable fit and ample space for easy breathing.
Should a valve or non-valve mask be used?
Valved respirators are equipped with a built-in valve that allows for effortless exhalation, reducing heat and moisture buildup within the mask. Non-valved respirators do not have this feature and are suitable for situations where preventing the release of exhaled air is necessary.
