Why it's dangerous
Health risk
The total filtration capacity of the mask is insufficient (measured as low as 80 %). Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements. Thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect.
The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation nor with the European standard EN 149.
