NEW FACE MASKS

3M Malaysia has introduced two new face masks — the 3M Nexcare Daily Hijab Mask and the 3M Nexcare Carbon Mask. The Daily Hijab mask has a special overhead loop strap that is suitable for everyone, particularly for women who wear the hijab. As their ears are covered, it is hard for them to wear conventional earloop masks which can only be put around both ears.

Meanwhile, the Carbon mask has an activated carbon layer that helps protect users from large particles and dust in polluted environments. The activated carbon layer also helps filter odours from the exhaust emissions of motor vehicles. Both masks are available at pharmacies and other stores.
