Unfortunately, the haze is back. Air quality has hit unhealthy levels and looks to persist as there are more hot spots detected in Sumatra. Especially vulnerable are our children and the elderly. Besides staying indoors as much as possible, we can protect ourselves by wearing good quality protective masks.

| #3 wearing size ‘M’ |
I can still remember the haze situation 2 years back where the masks available came in one standard size and were not of a good fit for my kids. They did not like to wear it as it was uncomfortable. The peak was during the June school holidays so we tried to minimise going out, but there were still activities we needed to do and life had to go on.
I’m so glad that Innosparks, a ST Engineering subsidiary has invented the World’s First Smart Mask, with a micro ventilator for fresher air. Furthermore, being innovated in Singapore, the masks are designed for Asian faces, and in sizes to fit both children and adults. Yes, I can hear you breathe a sigh of relief.
The engineers focused their R&D efforts on a design that will provide better seal protection for all ages, as well as frontline workers, who have to wear masks for prolonged periods in exposed areas. Hence, they applied their engineering and technical skill sets and invented the next generation of respirators.
The AIR+ Smart Mask consists of 2 components. One is the disposable mask and the other is a ventilator, like a mini fan.

Sane tip: This is such a timely innovation, especially for children and the elderly, as the other N95 masks may not be suitable because there is an accumulation of heat, humidity and high CO2 levels, resulting in breathing difficulties or dizziness.
Rest assured, the AIR+ Smart Mask is certified to meet both the EN 149:2001+A1:2009 (European) and the N95 NIOSH-approved (American) standards.
