COVID-19 has been ravaging the world since 2019. Different governments all over the world have been trying to keep their citizens safe. The WHO has time and again rolled out guidelines to help people maintain their safety. One such critical safety measure everyone is expected to follow is wearing face masks when stepping out of the home.

Face mask cases

Usually, when they’re not in use, most of us put our masks in our bags. What many of us don’t realize is that our bags aren’t disinfected against the virus. Face masks aren’t safe inside bags, and that is why a new gadget has been designed to keep them sanitized even inside bags.

Known as face mask cases, these gadgets protect face masks from contamination or exposure to viruses and bacteria. They also protect masks from dirt or sharp objects that may impact their quality.

Here’s a look at a few face mask cases you can try out to up your safety levels:

Mask Case mask box

This is a plastic protective case for your face mask against dirt and moisture, a magnet for microorganisms like fungi. It can protect your mask from contamination with other objects as well. It’s designed in a way that your mask will fit in it without folding. By the way, it is handy and fits in your pocket!
