This pack contains:
These masks are produced according to the American N95 standard. This is slightly stricter than the European FFP2 standard, protection class 2. Namely 95% of the particles are stopped, compared to 94% with an FFP2 mask. In other words, 5% of the particles are allowed to pass, compared to 6% with an FFP2 mask. This means that 20% less particles are let through with this N95 mask! That one percent means a big difference!

Based on this comparison, it is reasonable to consider China KN95, AS/NZ P2, Korea 1st Class, and Japan DS FFRs as “equivalent” to US NIOSH N95 and European FFP2 respirators, for filtering non-oil-based particles such as those resulting from wildfires, PM 2.5 air pollution, volcanic eruptions, or bioaerosols (eg viruses).
