If you are searching for a fully featured face mask, the UVMask may be worth more investigation. Launched via Kickstarter this month, the project has already raised over $1 million thanks to over 7,000 backers with still 30 days remaining.
“Meet UVMask, the next-generation reusable antiviral & antipollution breathing face mask with the most powerful UV-C purification technology on the market. Equipped with a passive air filter, and a groundbreaking patent-pending Sterile-Vortex active protection, it filters and purifies 99.99% of air 10x faster than you can breathe.”
Early bird pledges are available from $99 offering a 60% saving the recommended retail price. Each kit comes with 10 replaceable filters and the new SBC charging cable.
Advanced UV-C Purification Technology
The UVMask stands out due to its advanced UV-C purification technology. The UV-C light is sealed within the patent-pending Sterile-Vortex. As you breathe, the air is sent through the vortex and purified under two 25,000μW/cm2 UV-C LEDs. This ensures that the air you inhale is not only filtered but also purified, providing an extra layer of protection against pathogens and pollutants. UV-C light is known for its ability to inactivate microorganisms by disrupting their DNA, making this mask particularly effective in environments where air quality is a concern.

Enjoy two high-efficiency layers of protection. Beyond purifying, this cool mask also filters air through a high-efficiency filter that blocks all air pollutants, dust, pollen, tobacco & bushfire smoke.”
Comprehensive Protection and Convenience
The UVMask offers comprehensive protection by combining UV-C purification with a high-efficiency filter. This dual-layer protection ensures that the air you breathe is free from harmful pathogens, pollutants, dust, pollen, and even smoke from tobacco and bushfires. The high-efficiency filter is designed to block particles as small as 0.3 microns, making it effective against a wide range of airborne contaminants.
Moreover, the UVMask is designed for convenience. Each kit comes with 10 replaceable filters, ensuring that you can maintain optimal performance over time. The inclusion of the new SBC charging cable makes it easy to keep the mask powered and ready for use. The mask’s design also emphasizes comfort, with adjustable straps and a form-fitting shape that ensures a secure fit without compromising breathability.
In addition to its technical features, the UVMask has garnered significant support on Kickstarter, reflecting a growing demand for advanced protective gear in today’s health-conscious world.
