Currently available face masks are often uncomfortable to wear. And, most are also disposable, which generates waste.
Ennmotive has launched an international challenge to find new, more-efficient and reusable face masks that comply with the specifications of the N95, FFP2, or FFP3 models. They need to be efficient against the COVID-19 and helpful for effort-intensive jobs. The challenge is open worldwide to any professional, student or Academia from different industries and technical backgrounds that want to propose a solution for this challenge. Submissions are being accepted until June 9. A cash prize is being offered for the winner. Details can be found on the company’s website.
