RespoKare launches anti-pollution mask in India

Indicator in mask changes colour from natural off-white to dark brown depending on varying levels of exposure to toxic gases

Clean Air Store, an e-commerce portal providing products and solutions to tackle both indoor and outdoor air pollution, recently launched RespoKare, a reusable and highly effective anti-pollution mask.This is reportedly the only mask in the market that protects the wearer from both PM 2.5 particles and toxic gases like NO2. The RespoKare mask also features a proprietary “pollution indicator” that indicates level of NO2 gas that the wearer has been exposed to.

The RespoKare Anti-Pollution Mask is the first personal protection product with the capability to neutralise hazardous oxidising gases in the air. Designed with built-in N98 and activated carbon filter, the mask comes with a five-stage filtration mechanism which allows wearer to breathe cleaner air, while the two Filtration layers filter ≥98 per cent PM2.5 particulates, its Active Respo Layer neutralises > 90 per cent toxic gases such as nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and sulphur dioxide (SO2). The unique design of “NO2 Indicator System” allows easy identification of the level of NO2 in air pollution, and also a means to indicate the longevity of the mask when in contact with air pollutants. The proprietary pollution indicator changes colour gradually from natural off-white to dark brown depending on varying levels of exposure to toxic gases like NO2 and SO2. This allows the wearer to replace their mask based on the colour change.

The masks also come with an adjustable and comfortable nose band for the perfect fit, to ensure no leakage of air. This mask can block particulate pollutants such as dust, pollen, PM 10, PM 2.5, microbes, toxic gases and smoke from entering our body, thus proving to be an effective tool for long-term health and well-being. Priced at Rs 399, it is available on the company’s retail site – cleanairstore.in, all leading pharmacies and convenience stores in Delhi NCR.
