Conserve.  Reuse. Reduce Waste.

Calumeo Clean is the first point-of-care device that effectively processes N95 masks for reuse, without the use of chemicals, in just over one hour.

The Current N95 Crisis

N95 respirators are specialized, single-use face masks that form a complete seal around the nose and mouth, effictively filtering out airborne viruses. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a critical shortage of N95 masks and the U.S. Department of Health and Human services estimates that 3.5 billion N95 masks will be needed in this year alone.

​

While, 3M, the largest domestic manufacturer of N95s, aims to produce only 400 million this year, in aggregate, only 1% of the needed N95 supply is currently available for use in the U.S. This inspired CAlumeo to develop a device to process N95s for reuse.

Challenge with Current Solutions

Most existing solutions use vaporous hydrogen peroxide for disinfection.

Drawbacks of this technology include:

• Long process times (>8 hrs)

• Offsite processing (requiring significant infrastructure to collect and re-distribute masks)

• Mask not returned to original user

• Persistent noxious odor

• Skin irritation
