Which mask is best for my precious child?
In today's environment where air pollution such as COVID-19, flu, and fine dust has become more severe, masks are the last means of defense against breathing through the nose and mouth.
In today's environment where air pollution such as COVID-19, flu, and fine dust has become more severe, masks are the last means of defense against breathing through the nose and mouth.
In particular, children breathe a lot and have weaker immunity compared to adults. Wearing a mask is even more important.
There are some things you must check when choosing a mask for children. First of all, for colored products, you must use products that contain food coloring.
Pigments are used to create the color of the mask fabric, but food coloring does not have many colors and is more expensive than industrial pigments, so many low-priced products use industrial pigments.
Industrial pigments contain substances harmful to the human body, but the ingredients of the pigment are not indicated, so confirmation is required.
The study's lead author, Dr. Alessia Zanni of Maggiore Hospital in Italy, said:
“People at high risk of ventricular arrhythmia should check air pollution levels every day,” he emphasized.
If children's favorite color products are sold at low prices, this is something to be suspicious of.
The second is the mask's ear straps.
There are more than 20 acupuncture points in the ear, and for growing children, the mask ear straps are fragile. Pain may occur due to pressure on the ear for a long time, and in severe cases, headaches may occur.
If you choose elastic non-woven ear straps, which are less painful than regular ear straps, even children can wear them comfortably.
The third is an additive used in masks.
Currently, all KF certified masks use MB filters. MB filter collects harmful substances using electrostatic method. UV additives are used to maintain electrostatic performance.
UV additives contain carcinogens. SYnotex Premium Mask uses only food coloring in all color products.
In addition, it uses elastic non-woven ear straps, which are six times more expensive than regular ear straps, so they do not cause pain even when worn for long periods of time, making them suitable for children.
In particular, the premium product line is the only one in Korea that does not use any UV additives at all. We use ePTFE material (Gore-Tex) made through an additive-free stretching process as a filter.
Additionally, breathing is comfortable with an inspiratory resistance of less than 20PA, which is lower than the average inspiratory resistance of dental masks of 25PA.
Please choose “Synotex” so that your precious child can grow healthy with a safe and comfortable Synotex mask.
