Glad to have found a mask created and trusted by doctors. This mask actually kills germs- it’s effective and fits well! Worth buying and wearing.
Great sized box of functional masks to keep in the drawer at home. Can have spares to throw in your bag, pocket etc before going out, or to a place you know is higher risk like the airport, train etc.These are standard blue masks, they do not have filters, they have a normal fit around the face and standard elastic ear straps. They are disposable so should not be reused but they are suitable for wearing for a few hours or a day of errands etc.
I’m sincerely impressed with these Oxafence face masks. They are NOT your “standard, disposable blue masks”—they were developed by surgeons in the U.S. and are FDA-cleared ASTM Level 3 masks designed to inactivate 99.9% of tested viruses on the outer surface, which gives me extra peace of mind during travel and in crowded places. Additionally, they feel light on my skin, fit beautifully and have a soft cellulose inner lining that feels incredibly gentle on the skin.If you are an employer who requires your staff wear masks as part of your PPE protocol, can you imagine the possibility of increased compliance because the mask is so much more comfortable and breathable, on top of actually killing certain viruses. I wore one for a full shift and was amazed by how breathable and comfortable it was—no ear irritation or that tight, claustrophobic and sweaty feeling I often get with the cheaper blue masks. These also seem much more durable.At about $0.76 per mask, they cost more than a “standard blue mask” but those will not offer the extra protection and are not near as comfortable. The quality, protection and comfort absolutely justifies it. I am blessed that I got to try these through the Amazon Vine program at no charge to me. But, I have marked these as an “Amazon favorite“, now. With cold and flu season here and more travel ahead, these will become my go-to choice for reliable, comfortable protection.
This mask is a game changer in that it actively kills germs, it doesn’t just “block” them, providing me a higher confidence when I’m out and about in high risk environments.The mask is comfortable, breathable and tucks nicely into the side of my purse.I’m glad I discovered this mask before winter and the flu season starts.
This mask is not just a barrier between you and the outside environment. It is unique in that it is impregnated with a protective surface that kills common viruses on contact. I have a greater feeling of being protected when wearing this mask. Also, I’m impressed with how comfortable it is, too.
As a nurse working in the hospital, these give me the assurance I need to do my job confidently. I’ll put on during the day and fold it up and keep it in my pocket. However, I use a lot of the disposable ones hospital provides because I’m in and out of patient rooms. I hope one day they can simply provide these masks!!One of my favorite ways to use these masks are when I’m traveling. I feel safe knowing that walking through airports and being on the plane that I have the extra comfort of this mask. So many people, coughing and sneezing, while other people that I travel with usually get sick… I am always healthy because I’m protecting myself by wearing this mask ell crafted mask.
Excellent quality and protection similar to N-95 masks. So glad I found these!! B
I ordered this Oxafence Face Mask – Inactivates 99.9% of Tested Viruses*, FDA-Cleared, ASTM Level 3 – 50 Masks per Box since we're heading into flu season.The good: The bands on this mask are soft. They're comfortable over my ears. The mask surprisingly barely made my glasses fog when I had it on. The metal on the nose formed nicely on mine and prevented most exhales from fogging them up. They fit well; their size feels like that of a standard surgical mask. I appreciate that the box they come in has a built-in dispenser; you just pop off the top where it's perforated for easy access.The bad: They do feel a little bit thicker than a standard surgical mask, though this isn't necessarily bad, depending on your preference. It's worth noting though. I think these are a bit hardier because of this--obviously a positive.I cannot speak to this mask's claims of inactivating viruses, and will be very happy if it is accurate, but it functions quite well regardless. I do notice a faint scent somewhat reminiscent of a cleaning product when wearing the mask. It was not too off-putting though. In the end, I'll be using these single-use masks this coming winter and I'm glad to have them.

If masks can trap viruses, shouldn’t they also help inactivate them? That’s why we developed the Oxafence ProGear mask.
Why Limiting Virus Buildup On Your Mask Matters
Engineered With The Features That Matter The Most
Trusted By Professionals. Designed For Everyday Use. Protection That Performs When It Matters.
Oxafence Technology Background: Science-Driven Innovation for Surface Protection
What Sets Oxafence ProGear Masks Apart?
Important Information and Indications for Use
A lot changed in 2020 – but most masks didn't. The masks worn since then were originally designed for healthcare settings, where the focus was blocking fluids – not on addressing surface-level viral presence. We designed the Oxafence ProGear mask for today's world – one where protection matters both inside and outside clinical settings. It's built to meet the needs of everyday use, while maintaining the standards trusted by professionals. With FDA clearance and lab-tested surface-level viral inactivation*, we hope this mask helps you breathe a little easier.
FDA-Cleared for Safety and Performance This mask is FDA 510(k)-cleared in a category that requires more review than standard ASTM masks. As part of the clearance process, FDA scientists reviewed independent in vitro data showing how the treated outer layer inactivated specific H1N1 Influenza, OC43 Human Coronavirus, and F-9 Feline Calicivirus (a Norovirus surrogate) strains after 5 minutes of contact under defined test conditions.* These findings were reviewed by FDA as part of the clearance process to support the mask’s performance and safety before clearance was granted.
For those who protect others.
Extra reassurance when it matters most.
Wear your own protection.
Planes, trains, and safe visits.
The patented Oxafence active protection layer in our ProGear surgical masks is grounded in a series of peer-reviewed studies investigating the use of light-activated methylene blue to inactivate viruses on mask surfaces.
This innovation began with a landmark study published in Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology (2021, Lendvay et al.), co-led by Singletto co-founders Dr. Thomas Lendvay and Dr. James Chen. Conducted in collaboration with members of the WHO Coronavirus Task Force and CDC researchers, the study demonstrated that methylene blue combined with light effectively inactivated SARS-CoV-2 on medical masks while preserving their fit and function.
Subsequent research, including studies published in the American Journal of Infection Control (2022, Scholte et al.) by our scientific advisor Dr. Christopher Mores and CDC collaborators, expanded this approach to target additional high-consequence pathogens. These findings further informed the potential applications of light-activated surface protection in personal protective equipment (PPE).
In 2022, Singletto partnered with Prestige Ameritech to integrate its patented Oxafence technology into a surgical mask designed to optimize viral protection. This collaboration led to the FDA's clearance of the ProGear Surgical Mask with Oxafence, Model AV82030 (510(k) Number K231741), on September 5, 2024, under FDA product code OUK. Surgical masks classified under OUK, which include antimicrobial or antiviral agents, undergo a more stringent FDA review process compared to non-antimicrobial masks. This includes additional evaluations to ensure the safety and efficacy of the antimicrobial components, thereby providing enhanced confidence of the mask's protective capabilities.
Building upon our successful collaboration with Prestige Ameritech, Singletto is exploring opportunities to integrate its patented Oxafence Active Protection technology into a broader range of protective products with Prestige Ameritech and other strategic partners.
