The company has moved quickly to develop a product that will prove useful during the coronavirus pandemic
Directa Plus PLC (LON:DCTA) has said its G+ graphene-enhanced facemasks, Co-mask, are now available for retail sale at a new, dedicated website.
The Co-mask range of G+ masks has been designed to be suitable for use by commuters, in the workplace, and during sport and exercise.
The company pointed out that G+-enhanced fabric is naturally bacteriostatic, which means that it stops bacteria reproducing on the mask while the fabric itself is dermatologically tested and hypoallergenic.
“Directa’s focus is always on taking existing products and adding the graphene enhancements that make the user experience better and safer; and doing so in a environmentally sustainable way. We hope that these graphene-enhanced masks will prove themselves as a useful addition to the fight against coronavirus,” Giulio Cesareo, the founder and chief executive officer of Directa Plus said in a statement.
“Our next target as a company is to provide products for air pollution. We hope that this will be the first step towards entry into the air purification vertical,” Cesareo added.
