Today, World Health Organization (WHO) and other nations are developing a cure against the Novel Coronavirus (COVID19). According to recent studies, the virus is airborne, meaning it can drift through air over an extended period of time and cause infection if breathed in.
Due to its airborne nature, high demand of facemasks results to insufficient supply. With that, Australians decided to help fight the virus by developing the first unique mask with botanicals.
Moreover, its main purpose is to reduce the pollutant/particulate matter intakes of the person wearing it. Likewise, air pollution had caused high numbers of deaths in different parts of the world. Also, it is one of the reason why it is being invented.

AusAir Introduction
Elias and Isaac Honor with their lifelong friend Jack Graham invented and developed “AusAir”. Moreover, they were from the beautiful country of Sutherland Shire in Sydney Australia. Also, they often go for a walk during their childhood at the Royal National Park.
As they grew up, they had been travelling away from home and going into a different country experiencing unhealthy air pollution. Furthermore, these experiences are unlikely to the pristine air where they came from.
To solve these problems that they have encountered, they got an idea of creating a mask which will be beneficial for everyone. Further research give rise to the thought of using natural remedies for the mask itself. In addition, they have included Australian native trees which has essential oil. Similarly, this oil gives benefits to the person who uses the mask as they breathe in.
