Filtration performance of the YAMASHIN Filter Mask™

We’ve performed comparative testing of our mask and other products, including N95 masks.

VIDEOThe results show dust (particles of 1 µm in diameter) pass easily through general non-woven disposable masks and cloth masks. In contrast, few particles pass through the YAMASHIN Filter Mask™ or N95 mask.

VIDEOSimply attaching YAMASHIN Filter Sheets™ to inside general non-woven disposable and cloth masks blocked the passage of most dust.

Results of mask performance comparison tests

YAMASHIN Filter Sheets™ significantly improved the filtration performance of general non-woven disposable masks and cloth masks.

It is our hope that the high performance filter masks and filter sheets developed and manufactured by YAMASHIN, a filtration specialist, will be widely used by medical personnel and others to help to minimize health risks. As a world leader in filtration products, we plan to make extensive efforts to continue providing these filter masks and sheets.
