We are all faced with a great deal of uncertainty. With the global pandemic and the alarming rise of positive COVID-19 cases in the Philippines, face masks, face shields, and gloves have become the go-to protective outfit for those venturing out of their homes. With safety as our utmost concern, the usual basic gear may not be as effective as the latest in health and hygiene technology.

In a recent announcement, Fine Guard, created and manufactured by Fine Hygienic Holding (FHH), one of the world’s leading wellness groups and manufacturers of hygiene products in the MENA (Middle East North Africa) region, has officially arrived in the Philippines. For years, FHH has been continuously developing innovative products and hygiene solutions, while producing patents for new processes and technologies. Launched earlier this year, Fine Guard masks now enter the Philippines with RPG Distribution Services Inc., as the exclusive distributor.

Fine Guard Comfort and Fine Guard N95 Masks take personal protection to a higher level.

Using breakthrough virus control methods by Swiss hygiene technology company Livinguard Technology, Fine Guard’s new face masks come with self-disinfecting properties.
