During the global shortage of PPE products, we collaborated with healthcare providers to make sure they were being provided with medical grade face mask. After stabilizing their supply chain, our next mission was to provide our high-quality mask to the general public.

The general market unfortunately, was flooded with subpar performing face mask. These mask would either have incorrect labeling or misleading features. Whether the label information states “non-medical” or vague protections terms, many of the masks on the market were not up to standards and do not meet the ASTM testing requirements.

As a result, Defender Safety worked with Intertek, an ISO accredited testing facility, to test our 510(k) approved masks and review our packaging to ensure sure they meet all the regulatory standards. We have also added a quality-controlled seal to all of our boxes to help aid in the fight against fraudulent products.

We are proud to announce the launching of our ASTM 1, 2 & 3 procedure, and surgical masks. As of today, we are listing all ASTM masks on our website for sale to the public to ensure everyone can have access to a quality product they can trust.
