Honeycomb Mask with Carbon Filter |
 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 of our every day uses, 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.

 I CAN BREATHE!
Reviewed by: Ms. Can't Breathe from Illinois
I am so glad that I purchased the Honeycomb Mask w/ carbon filter. I was so congested from delivery truck drivers bringing products in at work. When I saw this mask I thought "why not?". It's the best thing ever! Wish I would have known about it sooner.

Great for travel
Reviewed by: Person with chemical sensitivities from Columbus, Ohio
I have mild chemical sensitivities and this mask worked very well for me while traveling and having to deal with public restroom deodorizers. It also helped when driving through very polluted cities. Usually I get a sore throat, congestion and have difficulty breathing, but this did not happen when wearing this mask. It is still possible to smell perfumes and deodorizers a little when wearing this mask so I would only recommend it for this with mild-moderate chemical sensitivities.

 Less-scary mask
Reviewed by: Chris G. from Santa Fe, NM
The mask is lightweight and easily slips over the ears. It cannot, however, be hung around the neck unless one attaches a "leash", so it is not easy to take on and off without misplacing it. Since people in public places respond negatively to the mask, often with fear, I decorated mine. My local fabric store has open-stock of trimmings, making them already out-gassed. I selected a pretty pink trim with shiny beads and sewed it along the top edge. People, especially children, respond to it much better.

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!
