Question 7

How did the concept of this "mid-level" mask start?

Answer

In early days of COVID-19, officials in Singapore approached an innovative Engineering and Design Company to create a mask to address problems associated with Base-Level Masks. The market needed a top quality product (move away from disposable models). There needed to be certifications but with a focus on the filter. The Facilities to manufacture also should have experience with health care equipment. The award-winning mDesign Organization produced the mask and is now in full production and support of the product around the world. For further details about the manufacturer, please visit their websites at: www.mas-gill.com or for details on the Design Company please visit https://www.mdesign.com.sg

Question 8

What mask problems did this mask design address?

Answer

An advanced design mask was needed and had to address problems related to the traditional disposable "dust-mask styles". Example key problems include: - COVID-19 is airborne, a mask needs to be designed to address this risk most masks follow the traditional surgical mask design (dust-mask style) which allows viruses to enter at cheeks/chin areas (especially during heavy breathing) - need a good seal around the nose (instead of using a metal band) - masks are commonly disposable so the life-cycle and long term costs are too expensive - millions of disposable masks create health, garbage and environmental problems - masks cannot be adjusted to filter out various levels of contaminants (e.g. N95 is a good grade, but for COVID-19 people could switch filters and use N99 or N100)

Why Buy a Gill Mask?

1) It works

(proper fit, air tight seal design)

​

2) Cost Savings

(mask pays for itself < 2 months,

see business case below)

​

3) Save Environment

(only 10 vs 60 disposable masks get thrown away over 2 mth period)

Three parts

1) Reusable Mask

(plastic/silicone shell)

​

​

2) Reusable Filter Cartridge

(can load with various filters

eg. ASTM 1,2,3 or N95)

​

3) Disposable Filter

(cut your own or buy pre-cut,

then insert into cartridge)

​

- HOW do you manage

air-borne viruses

​

- USE PROPER DESIGN (reusable mask with replacable cartridges and tight/flexible silicone seal)

Gill Respirator Style Face Mask

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Proper Safe Fit & Comfort

COVID-19 is airborne, help combat airborne particles with an air-tight fit & seal (silicone adapts to face contours and is also hypoallergenic), disposable & cloth masks generally act as barriers to protect others and are not designed for air-tight fit

Multi-functional Use

a Gill filter cartridge allows for various filter types to be inserted so you control your level of protection based on the filter you insert (e.g. surgical, N95/KN95, ASTM Level 1/2/3,

dust, etc.)

Save Money

in less than 60 days the mask pays for itself (payback period) then every day after that the savings accumulate, savings are from filters since disposable masks will go 4-6 times farther (cut disposable masks into 4-6 filters) or also can buy pre-cut disposable filters (at lower $)

Economic &

Environment

Save Environment

when using a traditional disposable mask over a 60 day period, 60 disposable masks are discarded (bio-hazardous waste), however with a Gill Mask you throw away only 10 mask equivalent (Gill filter is 1/6 size of a disposable mask), the Gill mask is reusable for years

What are other masks-types

& how do they compare?

Are Gill masks & filters certified?

How does it differ from a surgical mask?
