1 = 250 Know the real cost of your mask. A typical surgical mask can be worn for, at most, 8 hours before it should be (properly) disposed of. With no antimicrobial technology or the ability to wash and dry, surgical masks are an economic and environmental calamity. Surgical masks are typically made by inserting a layer of polypropylene (plastic) between two layers of fibers. Polypropylene can have a lifespan of 450 years before it is broken down. For just less than a year of protection, you could be responsible for more than 4 lifetimes worth of pollution.

Not only are they not sustainable, but new data is showing that KN95 masks out of China are not as protective as they claim. Buyers beware.

A sneak peak inside our new Ecofibre Limited HQ in Georgetown, Kentucky. Our 50,000 square foot campus is home to a majority of operations for Hemp Black, and our sister companies Ananda Hemp and Ananda Professional. This building houses our state-of-the-art extraction laboratory where our full spectrum hemp extracts are created as well as the machinery where our hemp is carbonized to create HEMP BLACK eco.... The Ecofibre gallery wall is the focal point of our entire Kentucky campus. Displaying products for all Ecofibre brands - Hemp Black, Ananda Hemp, Ananda Professional, and Ananda Food, this intricate display also has an in-depth history of hemp and QR codes to explore each brand further. Hemp Black technologies are used in everything throughout this state-of-the-art facility from the carpet to the wallpaper to the furniture. The break room in our HQ is one of the first things you see when entering the building. The spacious dining area features wallpaper printed with HEMP BLACK / ink, luxury booth seating made with HEMP BLACK / hide, and #hemp beer on tap brewed locally by @rockhousebrewing using hemp seeds from Ananda Food. Our outdoor seating area showcases the diversity of HEMP BLACK / element. Both the turf and suspension fabric used on the chairs are made with our odor neutralizing hemp extract engineered into the DNA of the fibers. Also shown here is our warehouse, where all products are carefully packaged and shipped by our skilled distribution team. We couldn't be happier to call this facility home.

There are many different viewpoints when it comes to wearing a mask right now. Whether you are for it or against it, the fact is that COVID does not seem to be going away anytime soon. Here in the U.S., some states have made wearing a mask mandatory in public places. Most businesses require them to enter. Our fusion / FACE MASK and fusion / FLEX GAITER both feature copper-infused antimicrobial technology as well as an odor-neutralizing interior made with our own hemp technology. If we are all required to wear one, we wanted to make a sustainable option that offers more comfort and protection than a regular mask.

There are several reasons why we decided to shift our resources from our activewear collection towards the production of face masks. These include helping to alleviate demand for critical medical supplies, reducing waste with a reusable design, providing our community with first of its kind antimicrobial and odor neutralizing technology, and this video that was sent to our CEO, Eric Wang, back in March. People deserve better and that is why we are doing better.

Alex Capano, Chief Science Officer at Ecofibre with a PH.D in Cannabinoid Science, provides insight on myths we hear on a daily about personal protection. Read the full blog here!
