Mi has launched a special protective mask dubbed the Mi KN95 in the Indian market. The four-layer masks are going to provide 95 per cent efficiency while filtering out bacteria and other particles. While a non-woven material used to filter particles makes up the outermost layer, the innermost layer enables optimum breathing. The other two inner layers have been made of melt-blown fabric for bacterial and small particle filtration. Despite providing the utmost protection, the material used to make the mask is soft on the skin and hence ideal for long wear, claimed the company. These have gone through the GB 2626-2019 certification and a pack of two of the Mi KN95 masks will be available in India for Rs 250 while a pack of five has been priced at Rs 600.
