Wearing a face mask is a compulsory requirement for today's lifestyle due to Covid-19 pandemic. The non-woven based disposable protective face is available at a low cost; however, they have comfort issues while wearing (fibre formation) and disposal problems. The fabric-based mask available in the market does not guarantee protection. Roughly face masks are categorised into three categories as fabric mask, surgical mask and respirators. Fabric mask provides less protection on the other hand surgical mask and respirators gives goodprotection but are not recommended for common people. Hence, we at BTRA have designed and developed unique cotton-based 5layers highly protective face masks with improved comfort, breathability, and above 95% bacterial filtration efficiency. BTRA developed mask gives very good protection, is comfortable to use and is recommended to use by common people. The mask is tested as per the requirements of Surgical Face Mask IS 16289 class 3 and passed all test requirements. Further, the wash durability to normal home laundering is also studied.
