Magid Gaiters Efficiently Prevent Germ Spread

Magid Gaiters Efficiently Prevent Germ Spread

Cooling neck gaiters worn as a face covering help to prevent germ spread and can make workers more comfortable while keeping them safe.

joint study from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) revealed that neck gaiters are as effective or in some cases even more effective than cloth or surgical masks in preventing transmission of aerosol particles that may spread COVID-19.  

This is great news for industries that require workers to wear masks on the job to keep employees safe and production running. According to Sarah Anderson, director of product management at Magid, “Many employers struggle with mask compliance due to comfort issues and fogging safety glasses, especially in hot environments. Cooling neck gaiters worn as a face covering give you the best of both worlds as they help to prevent germ spread and can actually make workers more comfortable while keeping them safe.” 

While informal experiments early in the pandemic caused some confusion as to the efficacy of neck gaiters to stop the spread of germs, this peer-reviewed study demonstrates that single-ply gaiters are effective, and that simply doubling the fabric on a neck gaiter pushed it ahead of medical procedure masks and 3-ply cloth masks in effectiveness

Recent advances in cooling fabric technology have produced gaiters, towels and other garments that cool down as low as 30 degrees below body temperature in less than a minute when activated with water. Magid Cool Powered by Mission neck gaiters keep workers comfortable and cool and can be worn as a single, double, or even triple layer over the nose and mouth.
