KN95 Face Masks are approved by the FDA and CDC for use by medical professionals and the general public. The use of KN95 Masks is currently advised by the World Health Organization. Aside from regulatory standards, these masks are favored by many due to their comfortable and convenient design. KN95 Masks feature an earloop, allowing them to be put on fast and easily, while also creating an airtight seal from the nose to the chin, preventing particles from entering. Consider stocking up on disposable gloves as well.
KN95 Face Mask Anatomy
Approved by FDA and CDC
KN95 Face Masks are considered very effective against airborne particles, viruses, and bacteria. Due to their overall effectiveness, the FDA and CDC have approved KN95 masks to protect against particles. Aside from the FDA and CDC, the effectiveness of these masks has been tested and proven through international regulations and regulatory standards.
Used by Healthcare Professionals
The KN95 filtering facepieces are currently being used by healthcare professionals. These masks are considered by the FDA and CDC to be effective at reducing the spread of particles and bacteria. Unlike many respirators, the KN95 is designed to fit tightly around the face, creating an airtight seal.
Protection Against Droplets and Particles
KN95 Masks provide 95% protection against all particles that are greater than 0.3 m in diameter, which includes bacteria and viruses found in droplets, pollution particles, fine particles, dust, smog, and pollen, among other things. With a 3D foldable design, earloops, and an adjustable nosepiece, these masks provide an airtight seal when used correctly, which is essential in protecting one's self and others from these particles. Instructions for use and tightness testing can be found below.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
WHO Recommends KN95 Masks to Fight Virus Transmission?
The CDC recommends wearing masks to slow the spread of illness. KN95 masks are being used by healthcare professionals due to the belief that they protect against more than 95% of all particles, viruses, and bacteria. However, there are not enough long-term studies to show that the use of N95 and KN95 masks is effective.
What Is a KN95 Face Mask?
KN95s are internationally approved and standardized respiratory masks for protection from harmful particles. These masks have become available to large masses in an attempt to fight the spread of viruses. The KN95 filtering masks have been used by healthcare professionals around the world since being approved by the FDA according to FDA guidelines and international standards. Where the N95 mask is the US standard, KN95 is the Chinese standard for masks, but both are approved by the FDA. Below is a comparison chart between the two.
What Are KN95 Masks Made With?
KN95 Face Masks are made with a nonwoven fiber layer on the outside and the inside, with a hot air cotton layer and a meltblown filter layer sewn between the two. These masks feature a comfortable earloop on both sides and a small, flexible metal strip sewn inside the mask at the bridge of the nose for custom fitting.
How Long Can You Use a KN95 Mask?
Both the N95 and KN95 masks are designed for one-time use. Although the CDC has recommended the reuse of disposable respirators due to the shortage of masks, face masks should always be changed after use.
Can Children Use KN95 Face Masks?
KN95's are not approved for use by children. Any KN95 respiratory masks that are said to be approved for the use of children are likely inauthentic and should be received with caution.
