Respirator recall
In cooperation with the German Council for Accident Prevention, Prowork Tools Handels & Vertriebs GmbH is recalling a respirator mask labeled "KN95/CE FFP2 Face Mask" due to insufficient protection. There is a health hazard.
What is the danger posed by the products concerned? Due to an insufficient and falsely declared protective effect, users run the risk of being insufficiently protected against irreversible damage to health, as the Swiss Council for Accident Prevention writes.
Which products are affected?
The product recall affects the respirators with the designation "KN95/CE FFP2 Face Mask" of the manufacturer "ANHUI QINGQING LABOR MASK CO., LTD". The affected masks can be identified by the label on the packaging (see photo, label).

Other respirators with designation "KN95" are not affected by this recall.
