FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Cutting edge research firm introduces first consumer adhesion facemask to help guard against bird flu and other airborne inhalation hazards.

Los Angeles, CA – The world’s first anti-viral, hypoallergenic adhesion facemask to offer substantial inhalation filtration against airborne bird flu sized particles has just been introduced to the consumer market and will be featured at the annual symposium of the IRSP/2006 International Society of Respiratory Protection.

ViraMask with Viraseal developed by Wein Products Inc., a long time innovator of emerging environment technologies, is the first ever advanced polymer filtration facemask that employs groundbreaking medical adhesion technology that molds instantly to any and all facial contours.

ViraMask produces a substantial viral seal every time on all faces without conventional constrictive and claustrophobic latex headband systems that are prone to viral leakage due to band shifting.

ViraMask is applied instantly and intuitively like a large band aid and covers the nose and mouth. It is comfortable to wear and allows for ease of breathing and talking.

While other facemasks require extensive and time consuming (45 minutes or more) mask training and facial fitting, the ViraMask offers unprecedented filtration against dangerous airborne viral hazards like bird flu viral sized particles.

ViraMask is pre-certified and follows National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) protocols directly. The mask is suitable for consumer use to offer substantial inhalation protection against bird flu sized particles as well as a host of other airborne hazardous particles such as virus, bacteria, allergens, molds, pollens, fumes, and smoke.

ViraMask has been certified and tested by leading laboratories and respiratory protection scientists on NIOSH approved filter testing instruments. It has a bacterial and filtration efficiency of greater than 99.9% and a penetration of less than .05% at 30 LPM.
