At a time when PPE is in short supply, brands across all industries are applying their product expertise to manufacturing non-medical masks, as seen in the machine-washable and reusable Purple Face Mask. The protective face mask features the same material that's used in Purple's bestselling Purple Pillows, the moisture-wicking Breeze Mesh for extra comfort.
The face masks boast triple-layered protection and are available in a range of sizes to suit adults and kids alike. The comfort-focused face masks also boast temperature-neutral gel bands that are made with the Hyper-Elastic Polymer used in Purple's award-winning Purple Grid. With these gel bands, there's room for plenty of stretching without having the material lose its shape over time, especially as it's washed and reused.
