Where is the demand for civilian masks, the difference between civilian masks and medical masks

At present, the standard implemented by some masks on the market is GB T32610, GB T32610 is the national standard for protective masks in China, which is suitable for filtering the air entering the mouth and nose to block harmful gases, odors, and droplets from entering and exiting the wearer's mouth and nose.

It is mainly divided into cotton masks, non-woven masks, polymer material masks, activated carbon powder filter masks, and activated carbon fiber felt cushion masks, which have certain protective effects, but cannot be used to stop respiratory pathogens.

Disposable civilian masks for GB T32610 test process:

1. Customers provide products and application forms;

2. The energy standard laboratory shall be carried out according to the information provided**;

3. After the customer confirms, sign the application form and service agreement and pay the full project fee, and prepare the test sample;

4. The customer arranges to mail the sample to the laboratory for testing;

5. The test is passed, the report is completed, the project is completed, and the report is issued.

Mask detection range: anti-smog masks, N95 masks, labor protection masks, masks, children's masks, surgical masks, non-woven masks, 3M masks, disposable masks, gauze masks, mask filters, dust masks, medical masks, etc.

Mask testing items: filtration efficiency testing, quality testing, tightness, air tightness, activated carbon composition testing, microbial testing, ethylene oxide residue, dust blocking efficiency, mask filter testing, etc.

Of course, the demand will be greater when the epidemic is severe.

Medical respirators are respirators designed to protect healthcare workers in specific medical settings and have been approved by the **, both medical respirators and ordinary N95 respirators have respiratory protection against particulate matter suspended in the air, however, there are additional requirements for respirators used in medical settings.

First, the role and classification are different

A civilian mask is a device used to filter the air entering the mouth and nose to block harmful gases, odors, and droplets from entering and exiting the wearer's mouth and nose. It is mainly divided into cotton masks, non-woven masks, polymer material masks, activated carbon powder filter masks, and activated carbon fiber felt cushion masks.

Medical masks can block most pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, and the WHO recommends that medical staff use protective masks against particles to prevent viral infections in the air in hospitals. It is mainly divided into medical protective masks, medical surgical masks, and ordinary medical masks.

Second, the user group is different:

Medical masks are used differently according to different classifications:

1. Medical protective masks are suitable for wearing when they come into contact with patients with respiratory tract infections transmitted by airborne or droplet transmission at close range during diagnosis and treatment activities.

2. Medical surgical masks are mainly worn in a clean environment within 100,000 levels of cleanliness, working in the operating room, nursing immunocompromised patients and performing operations such as body cavity puncture.

3. Ordinary medical masks can be used for people working in ordinary medical environments, with the lowest protection level.

Most people are suitable for wearing civilian masks, but people with heart or respiratory difficulties, pregnancy, dizziness after wearing, difficulty breathing and **sensitive people should choose carefully.

Mask factories need the following conditions: apply for health permits, quality certificates and other documents in accordance with the law; There are professional and technical personnel; There are operational standards and processes that comply with the regulations; There are corresponding equipment, places, and funds.

1. The Ministry of Commerce's new regulations on mask exports.

The Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, and the State Drug Administration jointly emphasized that relevant medical supplies export enterprises should ensure product quality and safety, meet the requirements of relevant standards, and actively support the international community to jointly fight the epidemic.

Customs requirements for sending mask materials: there are regular manufacturers producing (including certificates of conformity and test reports).

The small cardboard box of the mask cannot be removed.

The mask bag should contain a certificate of conformity, and the cost of returning or deducting the mask if it is a three-no product shall be borne by the sender!

Mask products need to be indicated in Chinese in the accompanying invoice: brand. Factory.

Date of manufacture. Model number (e.g. brand:

BYD, manufacturer: BYD, production date: March 2020, model:

Disposable earloop mask or: N95 KN95, etc.).

At present, in the actual shipping process, the outer box of the packaging should be neutral packaging, and the words "mask" and "epidemic prevention materials" should not appear on the outer box. The words "face mask" should be removed, or a woven bag should be put on the outer box.

2. Is it illegal to sell masks in the circle of friends?

Selling masks in the circle of friends is only legal if you have the corresponding qualification certificates. Because medical masks, as a medical supply, belong to the second class of medical devices, the sale of medical masks not only requires a "business license", but also a "second class of medical business record certificate", and must also be able to provide the purchase bill of the first mask, the qualification certificate of the supplier (individual) and the qualification certificate of the product. Therefore, the sale of masks in the circle of friends must be operated legally.

Article 2 of the Measures for the Administration of Health Administrative Licensing.

Health administrative license is the health and family planning administrative department according to the application of citizens, legal persons or other organizations, in accordance with health laws, regulations, rules and health standards, norms for review, permission to engage in specific activities related to health management.

Article 14 of the Product Quality Law of the People's Republic of China.

According to the international quality management standards, the state implements the enterprise quality system certification system. According to the principle of voluntariness, enterprises can apply for enterprise quality system certification to the certification body recognized by the market supervision and administration department or authorized by the market supervision and administration department. If it is certified and qualified, the certification body will issue the enterprise quality system certification certificate.

The state refers to the international advanced product standards and technical requirements, and implements the product quality certification system.

The conditions required for handling a mask factory include obtaining a health license, production license, business license, product qualification certificate, etc. Where citizens, legal persons, or other organizations engage in specific activities and need to obtain an administrative license in accordance with law, they shall submit an application to the administrative organs.

Article 29 of the Administrative Licensing Law of the People's Republic of China.

Where citizens, legal persons, or other organizations engage in specific activities and need to obtain an administrative license in accordance with law, they shall submit an application to the administrative organs. If the application needs to be in a format text, the administrative organ shall provide the applicant with a format copy of the application for administrative licensing. The format text of the application shall not contain content that is not directly related to the application for administrative licensing.

Applications for administrative licenses may be submitted by letter, telegram, telex, fax, electronic data interchange and e-mail.

There are mainly the following differences between medical masks and civilian masks: 1. The technical index requirements are different, medical masks need to meet the corresponding national technical index requirements, and civilian masks do not have strict technical index requirements. 2. The scope of application is different, medical masks are suitable for medical staff and staff in medical institutions to prevent respiratory infectious diseases, and civilian masks are mainly used by the public for dust, haze, droplets, odor, warmth, etc.

Knowledge expansion: 1. Ordinary medical masks (medical nursing masks).

There are many names of ordinary medical masks, and the medical masks without the words "protection" and "surgery" on the name are ordinary medical masks, which do not require a barrier effect on blood and have no tightness requirements, so they are only used for wearing in ordinary medical environments. Most of the common medical masks are ear-hook masks, which are similar in appearance to ear-hook surgical masks.

However, it cannot achieve the filtration efficiency of particles and bacteria, cannot effectively block the invasion of pathogens through the respiratory tract, and cannot play a protective role in particles and bacteria and viruses.

2. Medical surgical masks.

"Medical surgical mask" is a commonly used medical mask in the operating room and other environments with the risk of body fluids and blood splashing, which can block blood and body fluids from passing through the mask to pollute the wearer, and at the same time has a filtration efficiency of more than 70% for bacteria, but the filtration efficiency of particles is limited, and it is mostly rectangular design, and the fit with the face is not as tight as that of the medical protective mask. Common surgical masks include strap-on, ear-hook, etc. It can effectively block pathogens more effectively than ordinary medical masks, but it is slightly worse than medical protective masks.

Medical Protective Mask (N95).

The medical protective mask "has a good fit with the wearer's face, can filter particles in the air, block pollutants such as droplets, blood, body fluids, secretions, etc., and the filtration efficiency of non-oily particles can reach more than 95% (this sentence means that it can reach the N95 level), and is a commonly used personal protective equipment to deal with airborne diseases. Common medical protective masks are arched, butterfly-shaped, etc. It is suitable for public places, crowded places, or closed spaces such as hospitals and offices, and has a protective effect on airborne respiratory infectious diseases.
