Disposable face masks in a 10 pack, three-ply with soft elastic earloops. The three layers work as a set: an outer layer that resists splash, a melt-blown filter layer in the middle that does the actual filtering, and a soft inner layer against the face. They are single use, and they are the everyday mask for reception desks, treatment rooms and general workplace use.

Features

  • Three-layer construction with a non-woven melt-blown filter middle layer
  • Soft elastic earloops, no tying required
  • Adjustable nose piece to close the gap over the bridge of the nose
  • Lightweight and breathable for extended wear
  • 10 masks per pack
  • Single use, not designed to be washed or reused

Specifications

  • Type: Disposable 3 ply face mask
  • Fitting: Elastic earloops
  • Pack: 10 masks
  • Use: Single use

What disposable face masks do and do not do

A loose-fitting mask like this mainly reduces the droplets the wearer puts into the air, and gives some barrier against droplets coming the other way. That is a genuinely useful job, and it is not the same job a fitted P2 or N95 respirator does. A respirator is fit-tested and seals to the face to filter fine airborne particles; an earloop mask does not seal and should not be substituted where a respirator is required. If your workplace specifies a barrier level or a standard for a particular task, check the supplier documentation for the mask you are buying rather than assuming a level from the ply count - three layers describes construction, not certified performance.

Common uses

Reception and front-of-house, general practice and allied health rooms, aged care, cleaning and food handling, and workplace supplies where masks are offered to staff and visitors. Stock them with the rest of your medical supplies, or add gloves and consumables from first aid supplies at MediBC.

Disposable Face Masks FAQs

What are the three layers in a 3 ply face mask?

An outer layer that resists splash and moisture, a melt-blown non-woven filter layer in the middle that does the filtration, and a soft inner layer that sits against the skin. The middle layer is the part that matters most.

Do disposable face masks protect against viruses?

They reduce the droplets a wearer releases and give some barrier against incoming droplets. They are not fitted respirators and should not be relied on for fine airborne particles where a P2 or N95 is required.

How often should you change a disposable face mask?

Whenever it becomes damp, soiled, damaged or hard to breathe through, and otherwise at the interval your workplace policy sets. Damp masks stop working properly, so a mask worn all day is not doing its job by the afternoon.

Can disposable face masks be washed and reused?

No. Washing damages the melt-blown filter layer, which is what gives the mask its filtration. They are single use and should be discarded after wear.

Which way round does a face mask go?

The stiffer, usually coloured side faces out, the softer side against the skin, and the wire nose piece sits over the bridge of the nose. Pinch the wire to close the gap, then pull the bottom down under the chin.
