Choosing the Right Face Mask for Travel

Choosing the Right Face Mask for Travel
With airports and airlines easing mask mandates, it's easy to assume that the era of COVID-19 precautions is behind us. However, the reality is that airborne viruses and other bugs still pose a health risk. For those opting to continue wearing masks while traveling, it's crucial to invest in a mask that balances comfort and protection throughout your journey.

Key Features to Consider in a Travel Face Mask

1. Fit and Comfort
Long-term mask wear, especially during travel, demands a comfortable fit. Disposable masks like surgical masks may seem comfortable but often lack a tight seal for adequate protection. Reusable cloth masks may feel snug but typically lack filters, compromising their protective ability.

2. Adjustable and Sealed Design
AusAir masks are meticulously designed to fit all face shapes, featuring adjustable functions for a personalized fit. The inclusion of 3D memory foam on the nose and a contouring nose wire ensures a secure seal, minimizing air leakage. Additionally, the optional head strap relieves pressure from the ears, ideal for extended travel.

3. Certification and Testing
Certification is a hallmark of effective masks, indicating compliance with stringent standards. AusAir's AirWeave and AirFlex Filters are independently certified by FDA registered Nelson Labs, boasting >99% filtration efficiency for bacteria, viruses, and air pollution down to PM0.1, crucial for crowded airport environments.

4. Sustainability and Hygiene
Disposable masks contribute to the issue of mask litter and are less sustainable in the long run. AusAir's AirWeave Copper Filters offer an eco-friendly solution, embedded with antibacterial copper technology and lasting up to 20 days each. The included Copper Carry Bag ensures hygiene on-the-go and during non-use periods.

Conclusion
While the mask mandate may have eased, prioritizing safety and comfort during travel remains paramount. AusAir's range of certified masks, equipped with innovative features and sustainable solutions, ensures both protection and peace of mind throughout your journey. Choose wisely, stay
