This
Honeycomb Mask, or Honeycomb ACF Pollution Mask, is made with a disposable activated carbon
filter that is sealed inside a comfortable lightweight frame. The
carbon fabric works with inner layers of filtration material to trap
these indoor and outdoor pollutants: fragrances, particles, cigarette
soot, smog, dust, diesel fumes, formaldehyde. It also filters from
50% to 95% of household chemicals depending on the substance. Mask can be worn without the filters to avoid gnats and other bugs.
The Honeycomb Mask was designed to effectively seal in the carbon filter. This filter does not replace industrial strength
respirators and is not meant for extreme occupational exposure, but for most every day tasks, this mask is more than sufficient to filter
common indoor and outdoor air pollution. Through testing, the honeycomb carbon face mask was shown to be comparable to a standard N95 mask
in the filtration of particles 1.0 microns in size and larger. This face mask trapped 99-100% of particles in that size range.
During travel, the disposable activated carbon filter cleans the recycled air on airplanes,
trains, and buses. The filtration helps to reduce irritation of nasal passages and of the middle ear. This helps minimized the build up of
pressure and inner ear pain.
How long the activated carbon filter lasts depends on your sensitivities, your usage, and environmental factors. You should change filters
when breathing becomes difficult. You can purchase replacement carbon filters for this mask. The ear loops adjust for a comfortable fit, even
with eye glasses, goggles, a hat, or helmet. This mask is washable, but the mask should not require frequent washings.

Helps control smells
Reviewed by: Scent Sufferer from California
I needed something that I could wear in public and not be affected by perfume, soap, and chemical smells. It does a very good job. It has given me the freedom to go shopping and attend my children's events without having an attack. I gave it four stars because if there was a really overwhelming smell, it still got through. But I am now free to leave my house safely! Thanks for a great product!
Allergy prone relief
Reviewed by: allergy relief from Arizona
I am a major allergy sufferer. In fact, I am allergic to everything that I was tested for in Arizona. I need to move, but I ride a motorcycle and love to hike and explore! Recently I looked for face masks and found this. It doesn't make me look like I am preparing for a war. It works great and allows me to continue my activities with little to no allergy symptoms!!!! I love my bike and will not stop living as long as I am still in AZ! Thank you!
Super lightweight, breathable and it works!
Reviewed by: From Karen, an asthma sufferer from York, Nebraska
I needed a mask because of neighboring smoke pits and wood stoves in our neighborhood which made sleeping with my asthma difficult. This mask is perfect even for sleeping because it filters out small smoke microbes as well as pollen, dust, etc. But you can breathe through it easily and it's even washable. It has carbon for extra filtration but you can't taste or smell it. I spent money on high tech masks at Home Depot but couldn't breathe well in them and I looked like an alien. This is shaped well to the face, is very comfortable and is my go-to mask for everything now.
Customer Q & A
Q1: I'm looking for a mask to use when I have to travel on an airplane because sometimes there are odours inside the plane that make me sick. I've heard the air inside the cabin is mixed with the air from the motors and might contain toxic particles. What would be the best mask for that? And if with activated carbon filters, how frequently do we have to replace them?
A: They honeycomb carbon mask will probably be your best option here. It's small, folds up easily and does have activated carbon to help adsorb and/or trap chemical pollutants and odors.
Filter replacement will depend on use, but generally, you'll find best results with replacing the filters every 3-4 months.
Q2: I'm most interested in a comfortable mask for airborne allergens. Is this as effective as a N95 in filtering pollen, mold and dust?
A: Approximately the same. The Honeycomb carbon mask hasn't been NIOSH tested but in other tests, it has been found to perform about as well as a standard N95 mask.
Q3: Honeycomb Mask with Carbon Filter does it have Latex?

Honeycomb Mask with Carbon Filter
In 2008, the Honeycomb Carbon Mask from I Can Breathe! was a fixture with some world class athletes and professional support staff
during travel and preparation for the Beijing Olympic games.
This mask is a respected product that works well for many different applications. The carbon insert
in the mask filters out smog, smoke, and other pollutants. I wore it while I was cleaning my
bathtub with a very weak bleach mixture. The mask muted the extremely strong smell.
Although I could still slightly smell the bleach, it was so much
better with the mask on. We are also painting a room in our house
and the Honeycomb Carbon Mask helped me withstand the smell of the
paint. Lastly I have used this mask while working with gasoline and notice a big difference in odor than with a simple
N95 rated mask.
Not only is the mask effective, it is also comfortable. The
mask itself is soft, adjustable and washable. You simply insert the
carbon sleeve into the mask. Then if needed you pull on either sides
of the mask to make it a tighter fit. The mask comfortably fits over
you nose and mouth. In order to get the
maximum protection, you should change the carbon as soon as you can
smell the difference.
What I like about the Honeycomb Mask
It keeps me from getting those headaches after working in polluted environments
Very comfortable and easy to adjust
The carbon insert has Velcro so it sticks to the mask easily
Carbon replacement filters are inexpensive
The filtration is comparable to N95 masks with the added benefit of filtering odors
What I did not like about the Honeycomb Mask
I wish it was a little more breathable, but that is to be expected since the carbon is thick.
I give the Honeycomb Carbon Mask 5 out of 5 stars. It is
a terrific mask for those of us who are sensitive to certain particles
or chemicals! I would recommend having a few on hand just in
case because each job is different and some jobs the carbon might
absorb more than others. For traveling or odd jobs around the house this face mask is a perfect fit!
