When the Australian Standard is a P2 Dust Mask, why are we seeing people wearing a KN95 face mask and N95 masks for sale Australia?
It can be confusing as on international news they speak about N95, Niosh , OSHA or a FDA mask. This refers to the USA standard certifying this type of face mask. A KN95 is the Chinese Standard for particulate respirators- and many manufacturers are in China.
The reason why you are seeing recommendations for KN95, FFP2 and N95 masks Australia wide is because there is an issue with supply of P2 Respirators / P2 face masks. Here are some reasons why:
Many Australian certified P2 masks for sale were used up in the bushfires in Victoria and NSW in January.
People with family in China bought and sent PPE to their loved ones after the bushfire to help them in times of shortage.
Most suppliers in China largely focus their manufacturing on their own local standards (KN95)
Factories in China know that if they get their PPE certified to UK or USA standards, there is a large pool of people to sell these respirators to.
