The Step Ahead Adult\'s Face mask in black has 3 layers and is water repellent as well as being washable up to 30 times. Made with nanomesh technology for added antibacterial effects and breathable layers, this face mask provides the most effective covering available. The Step Ahead Face Masks are designed to provide a breathable yet durable covering. The fluid repellent outer layer provides added protection whilst the 3 layers filter the particles inhaled as per the World Health Organisation mask guidelines. The inner layer is made with patented Nanomesh technology for antibacterial effects providing extra safety. All Step Ahead face masks can be washed both by hand and machine, with testing to endure 30 washes. This helps to both reduce waste and protect the environment.
