Bolt Creation "Mask Filter 'Polymer Blocking Membrane' Obtains LOHAS Certification" View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bo-kyung] Volt Creation announced on the 24th that the polymer barrier membrane used as a filter in the eco-friendly mask 'Face Bio Guard' has become the first in the industry to receive LOHAS certification from the Korea Standards Association (KSA).


LOHAS (Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability) refers to the lifestyle patterns of people who place high value on physical and mental health as well as the environment, social justice, and sustainable consumption. Since 2006, the Korea Standards Association has granted LOHAS certification only to products and services of companies that have demonstrated eco-friendly and socially contributive efforts and achievements for sustainable development of society.


The polymer barrier membrane that received certification this time was created last February using Korea's first micrometer (㎛) etching technology. It is lightweight, highly breathable, and physically blocks contaminants.


The polymer barrier membrane also passed droplet blocking test standards through a test research institute designated by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. Unlike cotton filters, it can be washed with water or disinfectants and reused when contaminated.



The Face Bio Guard, which applies this product, is a reusable mask that has attracted attention both domestically and internationally for its environmental considerations. Recently, it began full-scale marketing by entering major domestic bookstores such as Kyobo Hottracks and Books Libro, as well as starting radio and TV advertisements.
