N95 protection that folds flat and fits right.

N95 is a NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) classification. The "N" means it is not resistant to oil-based particles, and "95" means it filters at least 95% of airborne non-oil particles when properly fitted. The 3M 9205+ carries NIOSH approval number TC-84A-8590.

The 9205+ is a NIOSH-approved particulate respirator designed for occupational, industrial, and emergency use. It filters non-oil-based particles such as dust, pollen, and certain airborne pathogens. While not FDA-cleared as a surgical N95, it is widely used in healthcare and general-purpose settings.

Unlike rigid cup-style respirators, the Aura 9205+ folds flat when not in use — fitting in a pocket, toolbox, or bag. When unfolded, its three-panel structure expands to create more breathing room and a better facial seal than flat surgical-style masks. The embossed top panel holds its shape so the filter doesn't contact your lips during breathing.

Yes. The 9205+ uses stapled polyisoprene head straps, which are synthetic and latex-free. This makes them suitable for users with latex sensitivities. The straps go over the head (not behind the ears), which provides a more secure seal for N95-level protection.

Yes. Each 9205+ comes individually sealed in its own packaging, keeping it clean and ready to use until needed. This is especially useful for grab-and-go situations, emergency kits, or distributing single units to workers.

Position the respirator using the chin tab, pull both straps over your head, then mold the adjustable noseclip firmly around your nose bridge. Perform a seal check by exhaling sharply — if you feel air leaking around the edges, readjust the straps and noseclip. Facial hair can compromise the seal.
