One of the prominent directions in the N95 respirators and other surgical masks market in developed nations is the move towards single-use devices. Such masks remove the requirement for sterilization, thereby lessening the chance of cross-contamination with products that can be reused. They also offer an economical solution, minimizing the likelihood of infection and reducing the length of hospital stays, unlike reusable non-woven masks which need to be decontaminated, cleaned, and sterilized after every use. Reusable surgical face masks, though can be sterilized and reused, provide less protection and require more time for manufacturing and sterilizing for reuse. The FDA asserts that surgical masks are expected to be used only once, indicating an increased potential for the utilization of single-use respiratory masks. Generally, people tend to view disposable surgical face masks as being more protective compared to reusable ones because they need to be immediately thrown away as biohazardous substances.
