The pandemic won't last forever, so why give a product that only has a single use? The Encompass is perfect for multiple uses: face mask, headband, scarf, bandana, wristband, gaiter and more! For practical safety purposes when social distancing is difficult, use as a face mask with one (pull straight up), two (folded in half first), or four (double folded) layers of protection. With moisture wicking properties and the ability to machine wash, it's the reusable purchase that covers all angles. These masks should not be used in any surgical setting or where significant exposure to liquid, bodily or other hazardous fluids, may be expected; In a clinical setting where infection risk level through inhalation is high; or In the presence of a high intensity heat source or flammable gas. No warranties are made, express or implied, that the mask prevents infection or the transmission of virus or disease.
