What you really need to know: The 4-point check for ascertaining inferior mouth-nose masks without any protective effect

The corona pandemic has been accompanied by a worldwide rise in fraud and criminal activities associated with the trade in respiratory protection masks. The media have been reporting on a daily basis about the sale of confiscated protective masks – sometimes with fake certificates, in inferior quality and frequently manufactured under horrendously unhygienic conditions.

The fake masks have consequently found their way into normal commerce – even via official channels.

Coronavirus: Corona-Virus: A self-sewn makeshift mouth-and-nose protector – very beautiful, very colourful and very, very impractical

At first glance it looks ingeniously simple: just sew those missing everyday masks yourself, choose your own colour, choose your design – and off you go! At second glance, reality clouds an all too rosy view: Wash, wash, wash again and do it at 90°C. Or boil it in water on the stove for 5 minutes. Before the first use. And before each new use.

Trotec practical knowledge: dry office air makes for dry eyes – professional air humidification helps

Office folk are often all too familiar with the problem of endlessly irritated eyes. When your eyes have too little tear fluid, they become excessively dry, they itch, they burn and they become red. We’re well aware of the reasons for this: on the one hand, long periods of working at a computer screen suppress the closing of the eyelids, akin to a reflex, thus inhibiting the supply of moisture. Conscious blinking, on the one hand, does help. On the other hand, office air that is often excessively dry causes the tear film to evaporate more quickly. A professional humidifier – from Trotec – helps to combat this!
