AMD P2 Mask Overview

Australian Made AMD P2 Masks for Comfortable Respiratory Protection

AMD P2 masks are Australian made respirator masks designed to help protect against airborne particles when fitted and worn correctly. They are a popular choice for healthcare workers, aged care teams, workplaces and everyday users looking for a comfortable, breathable P2 face mask.

AMD masks use advanced nano-fibre filtration technology, helping deliver high filtration performance while maintaining a lightweight feel for extended wear.

Best suited for:

Healthcare and aged care settings
Workplaces and professional use
Travel and public spaces
Bushfire smoke, dust and poor air quality days
Everyday respiratory protection

Why Choose AMD P2 Masks?

AMD P2 respirators are designed to combine protection, comfort and breathability. Made using advanced nanofibre filtration technology, AMD masks are engineered to help capture fine airborne particles while maintaining a lightweight, breathable feel.

Many standard P2 masks use a meltblown filter layer, which can rely on a denser filter structure to trap particles. AMD’s nanofibre technology uses extremely fine fibres to create an effective filtration barrier, helping support high filtration performance while allowing easier airflow.

This makes AMD P2 masks a popular choice for people who need respiratory protection that still feels comfortable for longer wear.

Key benefits include:

Australian made quality (Certified to Australia & NZ Standards (AS/NZS 1715))
Advanced nanofibre filtration technology
High reported filtration performance
Lightweight and breathable design
Comfortable soft inner layer
Secure fit with mouldable nose bridge
Helps reduce gaps around the nose, cheeks and chin when fitted correctly
Earloop and headband options available
Suitable for personal, workplace and professional use

Helpful note:
For best protection, any P2 respirator must be fitted and worn correctly. The right size and style can help improve comfort, seal and overall performance.

Filtration, Certification & Standards

AMD P2 respirator masks are designed to meet Australian P2 respirator requirements. In Australia, P2 respirators must filter at least 94% of airborne particles when tested to the required standard.

AMD P2 masks exceed this requirement, with reported filtration results of:

≥99.66% Particle Filtration Efficiency, also known as PFE
≥99.92% Bacterial Filtration Efficiency, also known as BFE

P2 respirators are often compared with N95 respirators. Both are designed for high-level respiratory protection, but they are tested under different standards. P2 respirators are tested under Australian and New Zealand standards, while N95 respirators are tested under United States standards.

Standard: AS/NZS 1716:2012
Certification/Class: P2
Suitable for: Airborne particle protection when correctly fitted and worn

See full list of certifications and reports.

How to Wear AMD P2 Masks

For best protection, your AMD P2 respirator should sit securely over your nose and mouth with minimal gaps around the edges.

Wash or sanitise your hands before handling the mask.
Open the mask and position it over your nose, mouth and chin.
Place the ear loops or headbands into position, depending on the mask style.
Mould the nose bridge firmly around your nose.
Press along the edges of the mask to improve the seal.
Avoid touching the front of the mask while wearing it.
Replace the mask if it becomes wet, damaged, dirty or difficult to breathe through.
Remove using the ear loops or straps and dispose of safely after use.

Tip: Facial hair, incorrect sizing or gaps around the nose and cheeks may reduce the respirator’s effectiveness.

Quick Answers About AMD P2 Face Masks

Are AMD P2 masks the same as N95 masks?

P2 and N95 respirators are certified under different standards.

P2 is the Australian standard, which requires a minimum of 94% filtration of airborne particles, while N95 is the US standard, requiring at least 95% filtration. Although the certification systems are different, both standards are designed to provide a high level of respiratory protection.

AMD P2 respirator masks exceed the minimum requirements of both standards, achieving:

≥99.66% Particle Filtration Efficiency (PFE)
≥99.92% Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE)

Because AMD masks filter well above the 95% level required for N95 masks, they are widely recognised as providing equivalent protection while meeting Australian P2 certification requirements.

What’s the difference between EP24 and EP26 earloop mask sizes?

The difference between EP24 and EP26 is primarily size and fit, designed to suit different face shapes and ages.

EP26 (Medium–Large):

This is the standard adult size, designed to comfortably fit most adult faces. EP26 masks are suitable for everyday adult use and are available in black and white colours.

EP24 (Small–Medium):

This size is designed for smaller adult faces, as well as teens and children aged 6 years and above. EP24 masks provide the same level of protection in a more compact fit and are available in white only.

Which AMD earloop mask size is suitable for smaller faces or children?

The EP24 earloop mask is the best option for smaller faces, including adults with smaller facial features, teenagers, and children aged 6 years and over.

Very comfortable to wear.5/5 Anonymous
Best face masks to wear. Provide the recommended protection and very comfortable to wear for hours. 5/5 Monika
I find these masks very good …this is not the 1st time l have purchased them …they are lightweight on your face and enable you to breathe properly…5/5 Sally
Being one of the people with ‘underlying conditions’ I’ve been very grateful to find AMD nano-tech masks. They are the only masks that form a constant seal, that don’t make my glasses fog up (which indicates a lack of seal) and that I can easily breathe through. Please don’t stop making the small version though because they fit so much better for the younger people in my family. 5/5 Sarah
Great Australian made product, comfortable and easy to wear5/5 Rebecca

Frequently Asked Questions about AMD P2 Masks

Are AMD P2 masks made in Australia?

Yes. AMD P2 masks are made in Australia and are designed to meet Australian P2 respirator standards.

What are AMD P2 masks used for?

AMD P2 masks are used to help reduce exposure to fine airborne particles such as viruses, mould spores, dust, smoke, and haze when properly fitted. They may be used in healthcare, aged care, workplaces, travel, public spaces and poor air quality conditions.

What does the P2 rating mean on a respirator mask?

P2 is the Australian and New Zealand classification for particulate respirator masks and indicates a high level of filtration when the mask is fitted and worn correctly. P2 masks are designed to filter at least 94% of airborne particles under the standard. AMD P2 respirator masks exceed this requirement, with a tested particle filtration efficiency (PFE) of 99.66%, which is comparable to the filtration performance of N95 respirators.

Are AMD P2 respirator masks compliant for use in Australia?

AMD P2 masks are compliant for use in Australia and intended for particulate filtration when worn as directed. They are ARTG-listed (335981) and meet AS/NZS 1716:2012 respiratory protection standards.

Why is a P2 face mask with a nanofibre filter better than a P2 face mask with a meltblown filter?

While both nanofibre and meltblown filters are effective in P2 face masks, nanofibre technology offers distinct advantages that can make it a superior choice for long-term wear and protection. Here’s a quick comparison:

Benefits of Nanofibre Filters:

Enhanced breathability: Nanofibre masks are designed with ultra-thin fibers, allowing for easier airflow and reducing breathing resistance.
Greater filtration efficiency: The three-dimensional fishnet-like structure of nanofibres captures more particles effectively, improving overall filtration performance.
Increased durability: Nanofibre filters maintain their filtration capacity longer, even in humid conditions, which can degrade meltblown filters over time.
Comfortable for extended wear: With better airflow and less moisture build-up, nanofibre masks are more comfortable for extended use.

Cons of Meltblown Filters:

Reduced breathability: Meltblown filters can have higher breathing resistance, making them harder to breathe through, especially during extended wear.
Less durable in humidity: Meltblown filters may lose their filtration efficiency faster in humid conditions, reducing their lifespan.

What types of particles do AMD P2 face masks help filter?

AMD P2 face masks are designed to filter fine airborne particles, including viruses, mould spores, smoke, dust, and other particulates. They are not intended for protection against gases or chemical vapours.

Which AMD P2 mask size should I choose?

EP26 is the standard adult size, while EP24 is a smaller fit option for smaller adult faces, teens and children aged 8 years and above.

Is KF94 the same as P2?

KF94 and P2 masks are similar in purpose but differ in certification standards and slight variations in filtration efficiency. KF94 masks meet the South Korean standard and offer 94% filtration efficiency for particles as small as 0.4 microns, whereas P2 masks meet the Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1716:2012 and filter around 94-95% of particles at 0.3 microns.

While both offer high levels of protection, the slight differences in particle size standards and certification bodies distinguish them. Both KF94 and P2 masks are effective for general respiratory protection, but if you need a mask that meets Australian/New Zealand compliance, P2 is the better choice.

Can a P2 mask filter out particles as small as viruses, including COVID-19?

Yes, the AMD P2 Nano-Tech Particulate Respirator with a nanofibre filter is designed to filter out extremely fine particles, including those as small as viruses. The nanofibre filter has a pore size between 0.05 - 0.1 microns, which effectively blocks particles in the virus range.

Comparison of Filter Sizes:

AMD P2 with Nanofibre Filter: 0.05 - 0.1 microns
Viruses, Including COVID-19: 0.1 - 10 microns
Standard P2 with Meltblown Filter: 0.3 - 0.6 microns

Are AMD P2 respirator masks suitable for bushfire smoke and poor air quality?

Bushfire smoke is made up of extremely fine particles that can irritate the lungs and airways. So, yes, AMD P2 masks are designed to filter very small airborne particles (around 0.05–0.1 microns), making them a suitable option during bushfire smoke and poor air quality days when fitted correctly.

Can I wear the P2 masks more than once?

P2 respirators are considered a medical device and have an ARTG listing. For the safest way to use them and prevent contamination, it is recommended they are only used once, and then disposed of. If you touch, adjust or remove your mask, you must wash or sanitise your hands. Please refer to directions for use.

Can I wash the P2 face mask?

No, P2 face masks should not be washed. Washing can compromise the integrity and effectiveness of the mask's filtration capabilities. Instead, dispose of the mask properly after each use and replace it with a new, clean P2 face mask when needed.

How do I make sure a face mask fits properly?

Ensure the nose bridge strip is at the top. Unfold the mask while holding onto the edges and position it over your nose and mouth. Place one ear loop over each ear and pull it under your chin. Mould the nose bridge to your nose and you’re set.

Our AS/NZ 1715:2009-compliant fit testing can be conducted on-site or at your location, ensuring your team has a secure and effective fit. To book an appointment, contact us today.

What if the face mask feels too loose?

The masks are a standard size so those with smaller faces may need to tie a little loop in each ear loop to make sure the mask forms a good seal around the face, or you can use a mask extender.

Do the AMD P2 EP24 masks come in different colours?

No, the EP24 masks are exclusive to Aussie Pharma Direct and are only available in white.

The EP24 and EP26 masks have the same width, but there are subtle differences, such as the length of the nose wire and chin flap. The EP24 was specifically designed to provide a better fit for children over 12 or individuals with smaller faces, while the EP26 was designed to cater to most adults.

If you're looking for colour options like pink or black, we recommend trying the EP26 masks. If you need a tighter fit, you can:

✔ Tie a small knot in the ear loops for a snugger fit.
✔ Use a mask extender to adjust the fit comfortably.

For more details, you can check out the EP26 mask range in various colours.

Can businesses buy AMD P2 masks in bulk?

Yes. AMD P2 masks are available for bulk orders and are suitable for healthcare, aged care, disability support, workplaces and community organisations. Contact us for more info.

Respiratory Protection for Bushfire Smoke and Poor Air Quality Days
Bushfire smoke is made up of extremely fine airborne particles, often around 0.1 microns or smaller, which can travel deep into the lungs and irritate the airways. AMD P2 masks are designed to filter fine particulate matter in the range of approximately 0.05–0.1 microns, helping to reduce exposure during bushfire smoke events and poor air quality days. For effective protection, achieving a secure and well-fitted seal is essential.
Reducing Exposure to Airborne Irritants for Sensitive Airways
Smoke, dust, and air pollution can trigger respiratory symptoms for people with asthma or sensitive airways. AMD P2 respirator masks may help reduce exposure to airborne irritants, offering an extra layer of protection during high-risk conditions.
Note: These masks are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Always follow advice from your healthcare professional.
