Face Masks remain the best defense against this and future pandemics including flus and natural disasters, however not all masks are created equal, and we must look ahead to safe and innovative technologies that will solve the concerns of long-term mask wearing.
Unicorn Breathing Mask's wafer-thin replaceable filter contains 15+ miles of non-toxic proprietary sonic electrospun nanofiber matrix thousands of times thinner than a human hair, capturing particles as small as PM0.1 with 99% efficiency. Standard reusable mask filters only protect down to PM2.5. Unicorn Masks have a superior lab tested high performance breathability rating of 5mm. The highest (meaning least breathable) score permitted for F3502 is 15mm. NIOSH-certified respirators have two different breathability limits: one for inhalation and one for exhalation. For inhalation, the air flow resistance (breathability rating) for N95s is 35mm, more than double the breathability resistance allowed under the new ASTM F3502 standard.
As the world’s first Reusable Organic ASTM F3502 mask, our use of safe and inert sonic electrospun nanotechnology invented and developed in New Zealand is proving to have many benefits as endorsed by leading bioscientists, with its nanometer fiber diameter resulting in higher fiber surface area, reusability while maintaining electrostatic attraction, higher breathability with great thermal comfort (dramatically reducing any moisture build up), sustainable production efficiency at a lower temperature, ease of fabricating from a wide selection of materials as opposed to limited thermoplastic polymers, and a higher pressure drop. In addition our contour fit (sizes ranging from age 3 kids all the way up to XL 190+lbs) with soft cloth adjustable ear loops, flexible non-rust metal extra wide nose bridge, and stretchable extra wide soft chin wrap designed by our veteran Milano Italian designer, eliminates the common gaps/leakage found in the majority of existing face mask designs.

We are a women-owned and run company based in Studio City, CA, and all masks are lovingly hand-sewn by master craftswomen in Bali. Recently the American Federation of Teachers has entrusted us to outfit their employees. Kids heading back to school love the masks as they are comfortable, breathable and fit snugly, so they are not tempted to pull them down. Kids are also more sensitive to chemicals, making the high thread count undyed, unbleached, raw certified organic cotton interior highly favorable to their sensitive skin. We are a 100% transparent company and proudly display all of our wholesale pricing and lab testing on our website, so you don't have to track us down and ask! We also have a dedicated US based Live Chat Customer Service team standing by 6 days/week M-S, 17hrs/day to answer any questions.
Simply put, WE CARE. A lot.
