Quality-Tested Face Masks At A Fair Price From ARCTIC

As an international company with close ties to and business relationships in China, we at ARCTIC have decided that we want to do our part to help in the current situation by using the opportunities we have.
 

Health and safety are top priorities
In order to master the challenges of everyday life during the COVID-19 pandemic, we all - whether private households, companies or public institutions – must rely on masks. The demand continues to be enormous. Unscrupulous sellers make offers that come with high prices or inferior quality; meanwhile the effectiveness of homemade masks remains uncertain. 
Everyone deserves access to a well-constructed mask
As an employer, we ourselves need masks in the future, but we are also thinking beyond internal company needs. Accordingly, in cooperation with our textile partner, we are producing high-quality face masks and offering them at a fair price. The Hohenstein Institute in Germany has tested the masks. So we want to make this essential protection more readily available for everyone - in a quality level that can be trusted – while also giving other companies the chance to best equip their employees.
Our philosophy is quality at a fair price
For ARCTIC founder Magnus Huber, taking this step in the current situation is a matter close to the heart: “Everyone should have access to a reasonable mask. If I can make a difference here, I would be happy to do it.” Offering consumers the highest possible quality at a fair price has always been ARCTIC‘s philosophy – naturally, we take the same approach with our masks. “For this moment, however long it may be, we want to meet the need and do it fairly.“

99 % Filter Capacity

With a filter performance (BFE) of 99%, we exceed the strict requirements of EN 14683 for type II medical masks. This means that our mask only lets through half as many germs in a stress test as is allowed for this standard.

30 % Less Breathing Resistance

In addition to a stellar filter performance of 99%, the highly efficient filter material also enables a 30% lower breathing resistance. This significantly increases long-term comfort.

High Quality 3-Layer-Design
ARCTIC Face Mask 3-Layer-Design
The mask consists of two outer layers of fleece, which are liquid-repellent and particularly kind to the skin. ARCTIC uses a fine meltblown fabric as the middle layer, which is particularly suitable as a filter fabric due to its fine structure. This 3-layer design also makes it comfortable to wear, with a demonstrably high breathability.

Quality-Tested

Not all masks are the same; the effectiveness of homemade fabric  
masks, for example, is uncertain. The ideal combination of comfort and security can only be offered by a quality-tested product. That’s why we have had our face masks tested and certified by  the German Hohenstein Institute for effectiveness and hygiene.
