R-Shield Protective Face Covering Snood

The R-Shield Eco Snood is a face covering featuring an incorporated nanofibre filter in the front 180⁰ (ear to ear protection) that is certified to capture 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, dust, pollen and diesel particles from the air. The R-Shield can be washed 50 times which means it offers a long-term protective solution.

The snood is specifically designed for tight fitting around the face (and jaw) to help ensure an intake of breath goes through the filter and not via errant air flows. To aid this, the design includes an adjustable cord and padded nose clip ensuring a good seal can easily be achieved for any face shape. Everything from the bridge of the nose downwards is covered by the protective mesh filter with a pore size of 0.01µm (0.01 microns).

The R-Shield is an eco-friendly product made in the EU from recyclable materials. For every snood sold, a donation is made to green causes.

R-Shield Light – For Sports, Warm Weather & Indoors

The R-Shield Light is identical in appearance and construction as the standard R-Shield but rather than high quality cotton, the outer snood is made from a sports material that has better moisture and heat releasing properties. This provides a good choice where the R-Shield may be used as protection during hot weather, intensive sport or indoors as well as outside.
