You know that disposable mask you have hanging from your rearview mirror? It may have lost its effectiveness long ago. Many face masks depend on an ionic charge that stops filtering out unwanted particles if the material gets wet from sweat, humidity or even your breath. When choosing a face covering, people want a mask that is comfortable, is easy to breathe through, holds up wear after wear and eliminates microbes.

Breathe easier with a face mask that is powerful enough to work yet comfortable enough to wear. Acteev Protect™ reusable general purpose nonwoven masks offer powerful built-in antimicrobial technology to protect the mask from odor-causing bacteria and mold fungi. The active zinc ions deactivate viruses by attacking the polar end groups and blocking the glycoprotein channels, breaking apart the protective virus wall and rendering viruses ineffective. Bacteria, on the other hand, are living creatures — and they need minerals such as manganese to survive. When bacteria make contact with Acteev, the active zinc ions block cellular pathways used to process that essential nutrient. Without it, the bacteria “starve” and do not grow.

Our scientists and engineers invented a process for creating a revolutionary new fabric that checks all the boxes:

Protection that lasts wear after wear!

Unlike disposable nonwoven masks, Acteev Protect masks don’t just trap microbes on the surface layers of the mask – they deactivate them, allowing the mask to be worn multiple times. Our mask is reusable and washable. Set the mask aside for an hour or so and the built-in microbe-fighting active ingredient will kill off the germs that cause bad smells, leaving your mask fresh for the next use. Although your Acteev Protect mask deactivates odor-causing bacteria, it may still require cleaning to keep it looking its best. After extended use, your mask can be hand washed up to ten times. 

1. Soak the mask in cold soapy water for five (5) minutes.
2. Squeeze dry, taking care not to damage the nose bridge.
3. Rinse with fresh water until the water runs clear.
4. Air dry.
