4D FlexiSport Reusable Face Mask

Breathable Reusable Face Masks Respiratory Face Covering

Protecting the wearer to ensure an effective barrier against airborne particles, these reusable, washable face coverings are intended for personal use. 
Backed by Harley Street consultant surgeon Mr Ian Bayley and proven scientifically to provide a better barrier than the FFP2 face masks worn by NHS staff. With its unique design incorporating 10mm of woven filament shaped to prevent the inner surface from coming into contact with the nostrils and mouth, this mask can be washed, dried and conveniently ready for re-use within minutes. 

As a one size fits all design, ties attaches to the ear loops make these masks customisable for most face sizes. Designed to be comfortable and easy to wear, making them suitable for direct contact with the skin and breathing over a prolonged period without your glasses steaming up.

Features
- Made from 100% polyester 3D spacer fabric
- Providing a greater barrier may help to reduce the risk of high viral bombardment and transmission into the respiratory tract.
- Elasticated binding around the edges is soft on the skin and provides a seal around the lower face area. 
- Tie back tapes have been added to the ear elastic to avoid pinching behind the ears and provide a secure fit across the ears 

Putting the masks on
1. Before using, wash your mask in soapy water by hand or by machine at 30 degrees. Elastic may shrink slightly at 60 degrees. 
2. Before fitting the mask, wash hands in soapy water or use hand sanitiser (60% alcohol).
3. Raise the mask to your face, metal nose strip uppermost, and place over nose and chin.
4. Loop ear elastic behind ears.
5. Tie the attached tape securely behind your head so that a good seal is formed around the nose and mouth, and to prevent any pinching behind the ears.
6. Arrange the mask to sit evenly on the lower part of your face.
7. Pinch down on the metal strip over the bridge of the nose and close any gaps.

1. Before removing, wash your hands in soapy water (or use hand sanitizer). DO NOT TOUCH THE FRONT OF THE MASK (it may be contaminated from use).
2. Reach back and untie the tape and, still holding onto the tape, remove from your face.
3. Place straight into the washing machine or washbasin without touching the face part and wash hands.

How to wash:
