Crosstex extends secure seal with Secure Fit
A recent study found that a tight-fitting face mask may provide more than 100 times greater protection against infection than a loose-fitting mask (Diaz K., Smaldone G. Quantifying exposure risk: Surgical masks and respirators. The American Journal of Infection Control 2010;38:501-8). The patent-pending design of Secure Fit masks creates a custom fit that reduces potential exposure to infectious particles. Each Secure Fit mask creates a custom seal with aluminum nose and chin pieces that significantly reduce gapping at the bottom and sides of the mask.
