Making the air we breathe virus-free

Facemasks are playing a key role in the fight against COVID-19. But many of the filters used in facemasks are made from plastics that are harmful to the environment. A more sustainable and effective approach is to use metal fiber media for reusable High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters in reusable facemasks.

Metal fiber technology is on the rise in many industrial applications. Yet few are aware of the full potential and benefits of using metal fibers for personal protective equipment (PPE) such as facemasks.

Get answers on the following questions:

  • What are the environmental drawbacks of current disposable facemasks?
  • What are the specific advantages of reusable HEPA filters incorporating metal fiber media?
  • How does a HEPA filter incorporating Bekipor® HA metal fiber media filter out the coronavirus?
  • Can antiviral agents be incorporated in metal fiber media?
  • Are facemasks incorporating metal fiber media comfortable to wear?
  • How can metal fiber based facemasks be sterilized?
  • In what other demanding applications can HEPA/ULPA filters using metal fiber media be used?
