The ‘D’ in ‘D95’ stands for ‘Detmold’ and refers to our type of P2 Respirator Face Mask, which  has a better than 95% particulate filtration performance. The ‘N’ in ‘N95’ refers to the NIOSH Standard (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health), to which the N95 Surgical Respirator Mask complies. ‘N’ rated masks are not resistant to oil.

Face masks should be stored in the original packaging, away from contaminated areas, dust, sunlight, extreme temperatures, excessive moisture, and damaging chemicals

Like food items, our single-use disposable face masks have an expiration date (5 years from manufacture date) printed on the outer packaging. Don’t worry, you have plenty of time to use your face masks before they expire. However, we recommend using your face masks before their expiration date for the best protection.

No. Detmold Medical Face Masks are single-use disposable masks and should not be used more than once.

Our Respiratory PPE Selection Guide highlights the differences, providing you guidance to select the best face mask or respirator for you to wear in your environment.

All our face masks are proudly made in Australia by Detmold Medical, part of the Australian family-owned Detmold Group.

We founded Detmold Medical and began manufacturing face masks in early 2020 to safeguard Australia’s frontline healthcare professionals and the community with a reliable supply of locally manufactured PPE. Read our incredible story.

Each of our face mask types is available in one colour. For example, the D95 P2 Respirator Masks are white, the Level 3 Surgical Masks are blue, and the Level 2 Medical Procedure Masks are purple. This helps our healthcare customers (who use more than one mask type) quickly find the correct mask. We are looking into different colour options for the future.

Masks and Respirators are essential PPE tools used to protect you from inhaling harmful particles and preventing respiratory droplets from being released into the environment. Respirators are designed to provide a higher level of filtration and protection and are often used in more hazardous environments. Read more
