FFP2 face masks

An FFP face mask is a medical face mask, similar to IIR masks, where FFP stands for 'Filtering Facepiece Particles'. It provides protection for the nose and mouth. This type of mask is certified by the European Union as a respiratory protection mask that protects against various airborne viruses. The EN 149 standard divides these types of masks into 3 classes of filtration efficiency: FFP1, FFP2, and FFP3. This classification considers the filtering properties (percentage of aerosol filtration) and the extent of leakage around the edges (percentage of inward leakage).

FFP2 Mask

An FFP2 mask effectively stops powdered chemicals and offers protection against flu viruses or coronaviruses. These masks are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, but also in construction and the glass industry, for instance. Manufacturers use white or blue elastic bands to denote this type. The filtration and leakage properties are as follows:

• aerosol filtration: min. 94%
• inward leakage: max. 8%

FFP2 or KN95 Face Mask

Certain standards for face masks from outside the EU are equivalent to the European standard EN-149:2001+A1:2009 and NEN-EN 14683:2019 for face masks. This also applies to KN95 face masks. KN95 and KP95 are the Chinese variants of the FFP2 masks known in the Netherlands.
