What wearing a protective KN95/FFP2 mask should feel like

Dependably leak-proof

IQAir Mask Soft seal technology uses specialized sealant material to gently and firmly conform to your face shape, preventing any polluted air from leaking in, eliminating unsightly pressure marks, releasing uncomfortable condensation from sweat, and helping eliminate fogging-up of glasses or goggles.

Airborne protection

IQAir Mask uses KN95/FFP2 respiration technology to filter harmful particulate matter. With IQAir Mask, you’re helping shield your body from systemic harm.

IQAir Mask personal protective equipment (PPE)

IQAir Mask exceeds stringent international filtration standards at 95% ≥ 0.3 microns (KN95: GB2626-2019; FFP2: Regulation (EU) 2016/425) to help protect against airborne viruses as well as dangerous particles like PM2.5, PM1, ultrafine particles, and wildfire smoke.

What the IQAir Mask filters

Why wear a FFP2 Mask to protect yourself from the air in your environment from harmful pollutants?

Fine particulate matter

PM2.5

What it is: PM2.5 refers to particles with a diameter of 2.5 microns or smaller — small enough to enter the lungs and bloodstream.

Why it matters: Long-term exposure can cause respiratory disease, heart conditions, and cognitive decline.

Source: WHO – Ambient (outdoor) air pollution

Ultrafine and coarse particles

PM1 & PM10

What it is: PM10 includes larger dust and pollen particles; PM1 are even smaller than PM2.5 and can penetrate deeper into the lungs.

Why it matters: PM1 particles are often more toxic due to their ability to carry heavy metals and organic compounds into the bloodstream.

Airborne particles

Airborne Viruses

What it is: Viruses such as influenza, SARS-CoV-2, and RSV are transmitted via aerosolized droplets and airborne particles.

Why it matters: A well-fitting FFP2 mask reduces exposure to viral particles by filtering respiratory aerosols from infected individuals.

Pollen, mold spores, dust mites

Allergens

What it is: These biological particles trigger allergic reactions and asthma in sensitive individuals.

Why it matters: A mask that filters down to 0.3 microns can significantly reduce exposure during allergy season or in mold-prone environments.

Gases and particles

Smoke & Wildfire Particles

What it is: Wildfire smoke contains a mix of gases and particles, many smaller than 0.3 microns, including carbon, formaldehyde, and heavy metals.

Why it matters: Exposure can aggravate respiratory and cardiovascular conditions, especially in children, the elderly, and those with preexisting conditions.

Vehicle emissions

Industrial Pollutants

What it is: Includes diesel soot, brake and tire wear particles, heavy metals, and combustion byproducts.

Why it matters: Chronic exposure is linked to reduced lung function, cancer, and metabolic disorders.

Coal burning

Sulfur dioxide

Most of the sulfur dioxide released into the environment comes from electric utilities, especially those that burn coal. Some other sources of sulfur dioxide include petroleum refineries, cement manufacturing, paper pulp manufacturing, and metal smelting and processing facilities.
