Hello OzBargain community.

Two days ago someone made a strange decision to post about our company on this website. It caused quite a shocking surprise to us this morning when we saw the amount of orders received! We are now working around the clock to fulfil those orders.

As a follow-up, we thought the OzBargain community would be interested to check out our newly arrived stock. This face mask is also TGA certified and Made In Vietnam, as we believe it is important to provide quality-assured PPE for our customers. Please be aware that the market is prevalent with counterfeit and uncertified masks made with subpar material, especially on Ebay.

The efficiency of KN95 is equivalent to N95 (USA standard) which contains 5 layers of filtration material (most others only have 4 layers). We have set our product at a very good price point considering its quality.

We hope we continue to be a favourite vendor amongst this community. Our prayers also go out to those in Victoria. Stay safe.

Thanks,

Tyler

      Hi. These masks are design to be more effective than regular surgical masks, with a tighter seal and increased filtration. So it is more for those looking to be extra safe.

        • Rathnor on 03/08/2020 - 18:14

          These are filtration masks, not everyday masks. If you judge their price and use case against surgical masks you’re just creating a straw man argument.

          For the price, for their use case, from a reputable seller and genuine product, these are a good deal.

I see a description of why they think their product is better than others, followed by sending their best wishes to Victorians. I'm curious to see what your though process was to arrive at that (erroneous, IMHO) conclusion.

          Even if that's the case, there are doctors looking for decent prices KN95 / N95 masks for their use in their work.

          • Sleepycat3 on 05/08/2020 - 16:43

            @ozbking: Doctors should be using surgical respirators, not these non-fluid resistant KN95 or N95 masks. So these are good for regular people. Doctors and nurses need respirators that not only filter well, but also seal well around the face.

            • flashi007 on 05/08/2020 - 20:09

              @Sleepycat3: It’s fine if you use a face shield with it

            • ozbking on 06/08/2020 - 09:15

              @Sleepycat3: Nope, specific DHHS guidelines saying not for respirators, but for N95 masks in high risk areas.

              • Sleepycat3 on 07/08/2020 - 09:58

                @ozbking: N95 is a respirator, it covers the filter material and the sealing around the face, just like P2 in Australia. KN95 is not necessarily a respirator as they use it to refer to the filter material alone.

                Example is that you will not find a true N95/P2 respirator/mask that uses ear loops as it fails the sealing test. Compare that to KN95 which uses earloops.

      Better than $10 for a cloth mask with no certifications whatsoever. And I'm someone who is pretty suss about the KN95 standards actually being met by the ones manufacture by it.

      If it is up to scratch they will last far longer than people assume … and actually offer some protections in the meantime.

    I have to say, even though the price is much higher than the ex-works price in China (KN95 is Chinese standard), the price is better than Bunnings and most retailing shops. Bunnings priced 5 pack for $19.

    • Fantalia on 03/08/2020 - 22:05
      +4

      The Bunnings KN95 is also a scam imo. I almost fell for it but took the time to read the box, couldn't find any cert for filtration (the box even says "Not for medical use"). You're just buying a pimped up version of a 3 ply mask with no added protection. You're better off just paying $1 a 3ply mask (which Bunnings also sells) than wasting your money on KN95.

      • danaus2000 on 04/08/2020 - 00:11
        +8

        They priced it too high. Just trying to grab more money from our pocket though. But you misundertood the discription. KN95 is a standard. On non-oil particulate filtration efficiency, it's just 95% minimum, same as N95 and a little bit better than P2 94% and Korean KF94 which is also 94%. If you see a name KN95, it supposed to be 95% minimum.

        And of course, the protection grade of N95/KN95/P2 is much better than 3 ply. You may find usually a 3 ply may mention BFE 95% or 99%. That refers to becteria filtration efficiency, not particulate. The particulate filtration capability of 3 ply is very poor, something like 30% I think. When you wear them, the difference of breathing resistance between 3 ply and a N95/KN95/P2 is big.

        KN95, and even N95, are not medical. There are different standards for medical masks to apply.

      • danaus2000 on 04/08/2020 - 15:26
        +3

        I believe you and respect that, but this would mean Bunnings got ripped off. The ex-works price from a large and reputable Chinese KN95 factory is at 0.6-0.8AUD (might be cheaper if from a qualified but non famous factory). Even if it's shipped by air, the average freight is less than 15cents/piece. If by container, the freight is almost nothing.

    Zebra is Australia's top supplier of industrial workwear and equipment. - Do you have any stats of figures to substantiate this claim? Must be doing so well to already be Australia's top supplier in only 3 months.

    From another Thread -

    I didn’t write anywhere either for, or against the business. Users can make informed decisions themselves and either buy (when available before), or pass.

    The actual address on store website is within a residential street as per google street view, part of a strip of shops.

    Yellow pages has company listed as an “employment and recruitment agency“: https://www.yellowpages.com.au/nsw/randwick/zebra-industries…

    Finally, address listed on store website is currently available for rent as per Realestate.com.au https://www.realestate.com.au/property/unit-2-119-belmore-rd…

    A mobile phone number is listed on Yellow pages website and also lists a different website URL that has been disabled.

    Above are the “facts“, hope we all (me included) don’t get burned…

    As mentioned I got burned by a store selling masks a while back that I never received. I hope everyone receives the ones they paid for in this case.

        Hi ZebraIndustries Rep. I posted the information that SnakeDoc shared above based on the information on your website. It’s not something I found elsewhere; it’s all from the info listed at the “Contact Us” page.

        The address on your website matches a real estate listing for an apartment for rent and not any shopfront. Yellow pages also lists the same address and your business as something else; not an experienced seller with years of experience in PPE sales.

        I suggest you post here whenever the many orders from the previous 4ply Face mask deal have shipped to allow those skeptics (me included) to “eat” our masks and “shut me up”.

        Until then I have to respectfully highlight that there are too many discrepancies to what you claim to offer and the facts of your website registration, company registration and location / phone number not being possible to be verified independently.

        Another user further below seems to have attempted to contact you via phone call without success. I suggest you investigate why that is the case.

        I will happily eat one of your masks when I receive them and remove my neg vote. I am positive few extra days will not break your business model with current demand increasing. I hope you can prove me/us skeptics wrong before posting additional “deals”.

        Roborock anyone?

        Interestingly, the google map screen capture of your address as available on your "contact us" page, is in exactly the same location as "119-123 Belmore Rd, Randwick 2031" as shown in a cadastral map search available on NSW Land Registry Services (folio 1/103290).
        Unless the map on your contact page is incorrect, what Snakedoc has posted above appears to be correct?

        Note: there is a business operating from 119 Belmore Rd, Randwick (123home), which can be confirmed by a google street view search.
        There is also an adjoining business (but appears to be in the same building) facing Short St (World Nails & Beauty).

    Wouldn't a reusable mask with filters work just as well?

    • spaceflight on 03/08/2020 - 19:46

      Yes it would work just as well as long as the mask and filters are rated at or above KN95 standard.

      It would be better and cheaper, just make sure you handle it correctly and wear it correctly.

      Yes. They did work in Metro 2033, so they must work in an equally dangerous place like Melbourne for example.

    are you able to supply the TGA cert and when was it accredited?

    • Halc on 04/08/2020 - 11:28

      i guess that's a no as the OP has not replied to this comment despite being active in other threads. it's worthwhile noting the TGA process is much more stringent now P2/N95 masks needs to be quality/fit tested and as such a lot of the previously certified products will lose their certification shortly and hence there is a lot of poor quality masks that will become worthless shortly

    It takes 20-30 minutes to add Paypal to your shopify website - why exactly don't you do it for our peace of mind?

      Even without PayPal you can always do a chargeback on both Credit AND Debit cards.

      However it’s a pain and takes time.

        You can only do a charge back on a debit card if the transaction is processed as a credit transaction.
