Guarantee your peace of mind with our FaceShield at your next health practitioner visit!
A 2017 study of Australian hospitals found that the rate of Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) is about 165,000 per year, primarily due to lack of hygiene practice - that is, bacterial transfer onto shared surfaces and hands of healthcare workers. (1)

The face hole can be a hub for the transmission of spit, saliva, skin cells and airborne germs which remain on the surface between clients.
Purifas' revolutionary FaceShield was specifically designed with this in mind, with its patented skirt providing greater protection from germs that may have been passed from patient to bed.
Our clinical research shows that the bacterial filtration properties of our FaceShield reduces your exposure to other people’s potentially harmful bacteria, so you can be reassured that the bed you lie on is safer and healthier.
