Be safe and trendy with Durio: Durio launching 4-ply solid colour surgical face masks

The outbreak of COVID-19 has been more than a year, masks have become a necessity in our daily lives, and choosing high-quality masks has become the first key to epidemic prevention.

Durio PPE Sdn Bhd is the largest manufacturer of face masks and melt-blown fabrics (middle filtration layer of a mask) in Malaysia. Intending to provide high-quality and affordable face masks for Malaysian during this epidemic, Durio team took protection, comfort, breathability, skin-friendly and aesthetic design of masks as the primary consideration, and created masks with the highest protection and trendy design.

Durio is launching a new series of 545 Trendish Solid Colour 4-ply Surgical Face Masks with a theme of “Colour Your Life”, making masks that are indispensable in daily life more stylish. The four new solid colours are black, denim blue, maroon red and dark purple. There will be more unique colours coming soon. These new solid colour masks are officially launched in March and available at Durio official stores of Shoppe pricing at RM33.90.

Make better quality masks
As a brand that insists on adhering to quality and precision as its core, Durio has invested in equipment to ensure the use of the most advanced technology by striking a balance between science, material and fashion, Durio masks are carefully crafted with the strictest technical standards, using high-quality, skin-friendly and skin-safe raw materials, while also incorporating a sense of fashion.

Durio is committed to quality by specializing in high filtration efficiency and airflow comfort of masks. Durio's surgical face masks are certified with 99% BFE bacterial filtration rate and 98% PFE particle filtration rate with lowest airflow resistance. The highest filtration rate and the lowest airflow resistance rate have made Durio standing out from many competitors in the market.

There are masks on the market that do not meet the basic requirements of production and safety. However, protection should not be overlooked. Each layer of the mask plays an important part to ensure comprehensive protection and maintain the comfort of the wearer.

From the outer waterproof non-woven fabric, the middle electrostatic melt-blown fabric and the inner layer of absorbent non-woven fabric, including the ear loops and the nose strip, they all have their particularities. The outer layer effectively resists fluid and droplets, the middle layer melt-blown fabric electrostatically capture virus, bacteria and particulate, and the inner layer can effectively absorb saliva moisture and reduce the friction with the skin, improves the comfort of the wearer and reduce irritation and cause "mask pimples."

Durio’s elastic ear loop pulls inwards from welding outer layer to reduce the gap at the side between the face and mask for maximum fit protection. And flat design elastic ear loops reduce tension and discomfort. Extra longer nose strip ensures that the mask is easy to adjust and fit any face shape, let the wearers feel comfortable and breathable all day long.
