A rapid Canadian innovation in response to a global shortage
With supplies exhausted, we worked in consultation with health professionals to develop an evidence-based, reusable face mask. Our research found that fabric masks enhanced with additional filtration can improve respiratory protection with an effectiveness of up to 74% against 1-micron particles and up to 70% against 0.02-micron particles.
TakeCare Supply is manufactured in Toronto, Canada. In this time of crisis, TakeCare Supply is helping to keep factory workers employed. They in turn are producing masks and helping to alleviate the critical supply shortage.

How TakeCare Masks Work
1. Inserting the Filter
Before you put your mask on, place the recommended filter material (e.g. dried baby wipe) between the two pieces of fabric.
2. Putting on the Mask
Put the elastic loops over your head and stretch the mask to fit comfortably over your nose and mouth. Gently remove and pull away from face after use.
3. Washing the Mask
Wash the mask after every use, remove the filter before washing with a regular detergent in warm water. Our mask is also dryer safe.
