The RespoKare mask also features a proprietary Pollution Indicator that indicates the level of NO2 gas that the wearer has been exposed to.

Designed with built-in N98 and activated carbon filter, the mask comes with a 5-stage filtration mechanism which allows the wearer to breathe cleaner air, while the two Filtration layers filter 98% PM2.5 particulates, its Active Respo Layer neutralizes > 90% toxic gases such as Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and Sulphur Dioxide (SO2).
