2023-8-1 (Mask)

University of Northern Iowa WinCraft brand face mask, meant for use as personal protective equipment (PPE) during the COVID-19 pandemic. The mask is made from a single piece of fabric that is purple on one side and white on the other; it is designed to have a main mask portion, 2 side flaps with 2 holes each for putting the mask over the wearer's ears, and an extra piece of fabric at the top which is meant to fold over inside of the mask and create an extra layer of coverage over the wearer's mouth and nose. The portion of the fabric making up the front main mask and ear hole flaps are printed with a pattern alternating between the University of Northern Iowa logo on its own and the University of Northern Iowa logo with the panther. The extra piece of fabric is printed with information, including: the proper use of the mask including a simple diagram of how to fold the top portion of the mask over and which ear holes to use in order to fit small, medium, or large faces; information on FDA and CDC guidelines for proper mask wearing and social distancing, including that the mask has not been cleared by the FDA for medical grade protection; and information regarding the production of the mask including the company, materials used, proper care, and that a portion of the proceeds will be donated to COVID-19 relief funds.
