For air pollution application, we recommend changing the filters after a maximum duration of two weeks, or when the filter discolours from white to mid-grey (refer to the picture on the packaging).
For application against the viruses, maximum duration of one week for normal use in low-risk areas such as shopping mall, office and public transport. However, the filters should be changed immediately after using it in high-risk areas such as crowded hospital or clinic.
Totobobo mask
Adaptable
Totobobo is the most adaptable face mask in the market. You can Re-shape it to fit your unique face, or trim it smaller for children. A published peer reviewed study shows that the Totobobo mask fits more users than typical N95 masks.
Coronavirus
The mask body is embedded with BioCote®, a silver-based antimicrobial agent. BioCote® technology is known to work against bacteria, mould, fungi and the influenza A H1N1 virus. Recently, it has been tested independently and proved effective against a virus from the coronavirus family: the feline coronavirus, strain Munich.
Excellent filters
Our filters were professionally tested by Nelson Labs in the USA and demonstrated excellent filtration properties with low air resistance. We publish all the test reports here
All our filters achieved over 99% for VFE (Viral Filtration Efficiency), BFE (Bacterial Filtration Efficiency ) and PFE (Particlate Filtration Efficiency).

Not all masks are created equal and some are more restrictive than others. I’ve found the @totobobomask to be my favourite for training so far – very comfortable, doesn’t restrict breathing or performance in anyway. I make a point of wearing mine to train in even if the gym is empty – can’t ask clients to do something that I wouldn’t do myself. Worth picking one up if a mask makes you feel more reassured about returning to a gym. Origianl post here

Some people said this mask is weird, but I think it’s super stylish😎
A different approach to a face mask.
New perspective leads to new idea, attention to details and caring.
Focus on Eco freindly and turn out very effective to protect us as well.
I received the Totobobo mask as a surprise gift during a friend's party. It's so practical, really love it🥰.
Sharing this only after trying it myself.

I had Whooping cough as a child and this had affected my lungs.
Whooping cough can destroy the “cilia” or tiny hairs along the bronchus/brochioles and this can make it
difficult to clear mucus. This means people like me are more prone to infections or flu or other respiratory tract infections.
I have been using Totobobo mask since 2010 and find it useful in flu prevention, hayfever and now for prevention from COVID-19.
Letter from Dr. Anil Simhadri, London
Shape it, ReShape it until it fits!
What the media says..
"Most important thing is "the fit." Make sure masks fit against your face, preventing air gaps."
"The Totobobo mask captured a lot of dirt after just a 10 KM run."
"The astonishing amount of dirt shows on the filters really hits home how dirty the air we breathe in is."
Awesome Seal-Check
Frequestly asked questions:
The Totobobo mask has some differences to a typical (NIOSH) N95 mask. There are pros and cons.
A published peer reviewed study by the Prince of Wales Hospital shows Totobobo mask is able to fit more (70%) people than N95 mask (40%) which is important for providing effective protection. However, when the mask is well fitted, N95 mask provides a higher level of protection than Totobobo (scoring 193 vs 133, where 100 is the passing mark).
Totobobo mask comes in two sizes, Large and Medium/small.
Large size is suitable for most man.
Medium/small is the same mask and is suitable for most women directrly. For children, the same mask can be trimmed to a smaller size.
You can use the Size chart for a quick check: If you need more accurate size estimation, please download and print this template to make a simple paper dummy mask. That allows you to check and compare the two sizes physically.
Totobobo mask does not interfere with spectacles (glasses), because it is very thin and lightweight and it can follow the nose profile closely.
Many users have been using their Totobobo mask for 2 years or longer on a regular basis. This easily translates to 600 times of uses. If the mask is well maintained, some users reported using the same mask for 5 years+.
TOTOBOBO mask contains Silver ion, an anti-virus agent. This active agent limits the growth and slowly kills the bacteria or viruses chance on its surface. For non-contagious situations, it is safe to reuse the mask after 24 hours of leaving it in a clean environment. However in a situation that the mask may be contaminated with contagious viruses or bacteria, or when using it in critical areas such as a clinic, it is necessary to disinfect the mask before it can be reused. In any case, sweat and grease from our face will degrade the plastic mask over time, therefore it is better to wipe clean the mask after each use.
The mask can be disinfected by washing it with soap and rinse with water, (like washing your hands). It can also be disinfected with alcohol wipes.
Furthermore, if replacement filter is difficult to get, the filters can be disinfected with UV-C light to extend its useful life.
