WHY CARING FOR YOUR MASK IS IMPORTANT

The full-face mask supplies breathing air and protects the wearer’s

face and eyes against aggressive media. To maintain these functions,

correct cleaning and disinfection (washing) and proper handling are

essential. This alone prevents application errors and counteracts

excessive material wear.

WHY YOU SHOULD TAKE A CLOSE LOOK

Apparent small details can make a big difference. Please read

the information on preparation carefully and pay good attention

to details:

‒ Temperature specifications
