  Bacterial Filtration Type IIR

  The Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) result for the Type IIR mask according to EN 14683:2019+AC:2019 indicates the mask's ability to block bacterial particles from passing through the material. For a Type IIR mask, this test evaluates whether the mask can maintain a BFE of ≥98%. The practical implication of this result for procurement professionals is that when they choose Type IIR masks complying with EN 14683:2019+AC:2019, they are selecting masks that offer a high level of bacterial filtration, suitable for environments where exposure to bacteria is a concern, such as medical facilities.
