Equipped with a passive air filter, and a groundbreaking patent-pending Sterile-Vortex active purification, it filters the air in real-time, providing all-day, 8-hour protection.

99.99% Lab-Tested Efficency

A report dated August 13th, 2020 by the ISO 17025 accredited SGS Labs carried out tests against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus (10-20x larger than typical viruses and thus much harder to inactivate) with 99.99% efficiency rate.

Using simple analogies, bacteria like E.coli and Staph are an Elephant and the typical viruses are a Mouse. UVMask kills the Elephant many times over with 99.99% efficiency.

UV-C Sterile Vortex

We use two state-of-the-art 265nm pure UV-C LEDs in the Sterile-Vortex, which are ozone free, ultra-safe, and durable. 

As you breathe, the air is sent through the vortex and sterilized under two 25,000μW/cm² UV-C LEDs that are connected by a quartz chamber wall, making the total UV-C intensity 50,000μW/cm² throughout.

The UV-C light is sealed within the patent-pending Sterile-Vortex, which means no UV-C leakage is made possible during the filtration process. 

Dual Filtration System

Enjoy two high-efficiency layers of protection. Beyond purifying, our cool mask filters the air from dust, pollen, tobacco, bushfire smoke, and air pollutants. 
 

UVMask at a Glance  

UVMask uses a first-of-its-kind consumer-grade UV-C light. This form of LED tech has never seen practical implementation in face mask purification.

The light intensities and time required have been too impractical to purify effectively at the speed we breathe. 

Until now. 
 

UVMask is the first-ever face mask to effectively integrate UV-C tech with the true power to purify the air in real-time. 

Unlike conventional face N95 or medical masks, UVMask is the first with an ultra-high intensity UV-C LED active air purification technology to sterilize pathogens as small as 0.1 microns. 

Independently Tested by SGS-Lab    

UVMask has been independently tested and certified by the ISO 17025 accredited SGS Lab, the Swiss-based conglomerate with 89,000+ employees worldwide. 

The CE-FFP2 (EU Standards N95 equivalent) passive air filter has been tested according to the EN 149-2001+A1-2009 standards.

UVMask has been tested by SGS to be completely safe according to UL1598 CRD (dated 2020-6-29), meaning the fully light sealed design guarantees UV light will not leak out from the Sterile-Vortex.

UVMask Daily Use Cases

UVMask is designed to provide exceptional protection to those who are most at risk from air pollution, whether due to increased environmental exposure or preexisting conditions.
 

Sizes (Type S and Type X)

UVMask silicone padding comes in two different sizes — Type X and Type S. The front shell of the mask will be the same for all sizes.

With its ultra-soft skin-like silicone face profile, it adapts to different types of nose and face shape. It is ergonomically designed for comfort and an airtight fit.

You’ll be able to select the sizes in a survey on BackerKit before the shipping of your perk starts, together with your delivery address and preferred add-ons!

UVMask is suitable for ages 6 and up. 
 

The Problem

9 out of 10 people now breathe air containing high levels of pollution. Updated estimates reveal an alarming death toll of 7 million people every year due to outdoor and house air pollution.

Air pollution, dusty neighborhood, contaminated environment… you need to wear a  mask. But do all anti-air pollution air filter masks or face masks ensure the same level of protection?

In order for a face mask to be effective, it needs to be well sealed, and dense enough to filter out tiny particles as small as 0.1μm. 

While large amounts of pollution are visible to the naked eye (eg. smoke), they are still present in harmful quantities when not visible. 
 

How Does UVMask work?

With both a filter pad (same filtration efficiency as an N95 mask against 0.1-0.3 microns particulates) and UV-C Sterile-Vortex, UVMask offers the highest levels of total filtration efficiency. 

Our UV-C LED intensity is 100x times higher than similar products on the market. And the distance of UV-C in the vortex is also 10x shorter. 
 

At UM Systems, we spent years researching the ideal engineering and mechanism of UV-C purification technology that’s compact enough to fit into a breathing mask yet powerful enough to purify the air you breathe in real-time. 
 

The key to UVMask’s highly effective protection is the two layers of filtration and purification:
 

1/ Replaceable High-Efficiency N95 FIiltration

All air you breathe is filtered through the first layer of protection. 

The advanced filtration system uses CE-FFP2 air filters to purify 0.1-0.3 microns particles, including air pollution, dust, and other particles up to 100x smaller than a grain of flour! 

N99/FFP3 filters optionally available at checkout. 

How often you change filters depends on how you use your UVMask. See the recommendations below: 

Each box comes with 10x N95 filters included, you can add additional 10x filters for $12 or 10x N99 filters for $16.
 

2/ Light-Sealed UV-C Sterile-Vortex with Active Real-Time Purification

UV-C light is the safest UV light for humans since it has the least penetrative capabilities through human skin, making it ideal for purification. 

The patent-pending Sterile-Vortex technology concentrates the UV-C light’s full power on the air you breathe to provide extra protection.

As glass components reduce UV-C light transmission, your air filter mask’s Sterile-Vortex uses the highest quality quartz optics and high precision chip manufacturing to power each UV-C LED.
 

•  Core UV-C components Manufactured in Japan 
•  Double 25,000μW/cm² (Lab Tested Actual Intensity) UV-C LEDs 
•  1,000x+ More Powerful than the Competition 
•  Extra Safe Light-Sealed Design
•  Low Heat Emission
• 10,000 Hours Life-Time

UVMask’s patent-pending Sterile-Vortex system uses two 265nm 25,000μW/cm² Ultra-High Intensity UV-C lights, making it powerful enough to purify the air in seconds.

Since most materials block UV-C, UM uses a patent-pending material and precision–engineered vortex design to allow the maximum time and surface exposure to UV-C while air flows in and out of the UVMask.   

Ozone-Free, Pure 265nm UV-C

Although some types of UV light are capable of generating ozone (O3), a gas that naturally exists in the upper atmosphere, only UV wavelengths of 185 nm or shorter can be used to generate ozone: Source

UVMask uses 265nm wavelength UV-C LEDs, which reliably generate a very pure and narrow range of UV-C that does not go shorter than 255nm 

UVMask UV-C LED optical properties:

UV-C at this narrow pure range has been empirically tested to be incapable of generating ozone. Each UVMask is factory-tested for its UV-C wavelength purity to ensure its high safety standard.

All-Day, 8-Hour Battery 

Two high safety standard Li-Polymer (103450) 1,800 mAh Li-Po batteries allow for up to 8 hours of continuous use on a single charge.

And with its fast-charging enabled USB-C port, you’ll be ready to go again in under 90 minutes.
 

Even if you run out of charge, your UVMask’s passive air filter will still protect you from pollution, dust, pollen, and other particles larger than 0.3 microns.
 

Battery Indicators

Two LED indicators will pulse as you breathe. The blue color indicates the Sterlie Vortex is filtrating the air in real-time. 

When the battery has ~30 minutes charge left, the indicators will turn red to suggest the battery needs charging. 

The FFP2/N95 filtration (or the optional FFP3/N99) will still be active even if the battery is depleted. 
 

Breathe Naturally  

UVMask’s skin-soft food–grade ergonomic silicone, FDA-compliant and biocompatible, is 100% airtight and literally “hugs your face“.   
 

UVMask’s uniquely designed internal parts with double air intakes and optimized sound engineering allow for effortless breathability and clear sound while speaking, unlike traditional face masks.
 

Real-Time Inhale Protection

The UVMask’s proprietary lights are one of the most technologically advanced LEDs on the market, purifying the air in real time, 10x faster than you can breathe.

UV effectiveness is estimated by calculating the UV dose which will be delivered. The UV dose is calculated as follows:

UV dose μWs/cm² = UV intensity μW/cm² × exposure time (seconds)

UVMask’s 2x UV-C LEDs provide a total of 50,000µW (50mW). This ensures that the air you breathe is purified over 10 times faster than you breathe!
