Oceanshield – Detailed product information:

Oceanshield™ is the world's first respiratory mask made entirely from plant-based materials* to offer FFP2 protection, and no petroleum is used in its production. This means it not only provides optimum protection for people, but also helps conserve resources and protect the climate thanks to its bio-based materials from renewable sources. The bioplastic (PLA) used in this mask is also biodegradable. Oceanshield™ also offers a comfortable feel and skin-friendly materials. The particle-filtering half mask also provides the highest FFP2 quality and therefore optimum protection in everyday life. Wearing this mask also effectively minimises the transmission of viruses and bacteria.

SUSTAINABILITY & ECOLOGY

The plant-based mask is made from renewable raw materials. The natural materials used in its production are biodegradable.

Material:

Bio-based plastic: PLA (polylactic acid), generally made from bio-based materials such as maize or sugar cane

Correct disposal:

Although the mask is biodegradable, we strongly advise disposing of it in general waste. Disposal in food or garden waste is not possible because the processing times at composting facilities are too short.

Instructions for use:

• First check whether the mask is damaged and replace it if you notice any irregularities.
• Then open the mask to prepare it for putting on your face. The nose wire should point upwards and the cushioning should face inwards.
• Before putting it on, adjust the nose wire to the shape of your nose using your index fingers.
• Then place the ear loops around your ears so that the mask fits snugly against your face and fully covers your nose and chin.
• Next, adjust the nose wire with both index fingers to fit it securely to your nose.
• Finally, check that the mask fits tightly enough and adjust it if necessary to ensure a secure fit.
• When storing, keep away from contaminated areas, prevent extrusion and avoid contact with moisture, high temperatures and corrosive chemicals.
