Why choose a mask from Puraka?
More Filtration, Less Discomfort | Puraka Masks are designed for enhanced, every-day protection suitable for active or casual use. A Puraka Mask with our laboratory-tested electrostatic filters can reduce 90% of airborne particulates in the critical fine-aerosol range, much more than a typical cloth mask, but with significantly less inhalation resistance and corresponding heart strain than a medical respirator (learn more).
We Know Masks | Puraka is an American company based in Seattle, Washington, founded in 2018 after the West Coast wildfires. We serve on the ASTM committee that developed the national standard for protective face coverings, and test to ensure our masks exceed the recommended filtration levels. In short, we have the experience to know how to make a great mask, and what to look for in a filter.
Our In-Stock Guarantee | A mask is not something you should have to wait for. Every product in our store is ready to ship from one of our U.S. fulfillment centers, usually within one business day or less from when you place your order.
