ctc connexions FFP2 particle filter mask poses health risk

Country	European Union
Category	Consumer goods
Published	2024-11-29
Model identifiers	CTPL-0029
Category	Protective equipment
Hazard	Health risk / other
Hazard description	The total filtration capacity of the mask is insufficient (measured values as low as 90.7%). Consequently, the product does not fulfil the health and safety requirements. Thus, even if combined with other recommended measures, it may not properly protect. Moreover, the physical resistance of the filtering material is too high (measured values up to 3.2 mbar) and prevents a user to breathe properly, creating a risk for the user to suffocate.
Non-compliance	Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation; European standard EN 149
Remedy	Withdrawal of the product from the market.
Recall number	A12/03312/24
