ION Capture Technology
Next Generation Alternatives to Poor Fitting Conventional Face Masks
Electrophysics/Ion Capture
ION Clairety technology is based upon the principles of electrophysics involving ionic binding/capture. The strength of the ionic attraction forces operate over significant distances. This allows for the use of relatively sheer open-weave fabrics that provide highly efficient filtration while allowing for greater breathability and comfort than non-woven, melt blown fibers as are used in used in conventional face masks.
Simple laundering regenerates our reusable ion fabrics by removing microbes, industrial and environmental dust, pollen and mold.

Fit is Critical to Filtration
ION Wrap/ION Gaiter
Snug, breathable, comfortable, 360° fit > 95% filtration
Conventional Masks
Gaps around nose & face = 40% filteration
