Over the past 3 weeks we have donated thousands of masks to individuals and organizations throughout our community. Unfortunately, we were one of the small businesses that was left out of the PPP funding and we are now faced with finding ways to continue to make our payroll. We have decided to continue to make masks but now we must charge a small fee to cover our cost. We have all been bombarded with face masks ads on social media with just simple cloth masks selling for anywhere from $10-$25 from all over the country. We hope that you will buy locally from us and help us continue to exist in the Knoxville community.

Our masks are made of 3 ply fabric. The outer layer is tightly woven cotton, the filter insert is removable and made of a technology for enhanced microbial barrier protection. Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) is from 98.9 to 99.9. It is non-flammable and low linting. The pocket that this filter slides into is made of 100% muslin, making it much more comfortable for the user to wear. This mask is washable and reusable and can normally withstand high water temperatures.

Our goal is to provide a high quality, cost effective masks that meet or exceeds CDC compliance while doing our part to “slow the spread” of COVID-19. These masks are not meant to take the place of an N-95 masks, and we make no claim as to the effectiveness of prevention during COVID-19 exposure. We do feel confident that in normal, everyday environments that our masks are a good investment.

We hope that you will buy local.
