Washable

Like any other piece of your PPE, hoods should be washed every time they are worn. On top of their improved comfort, fit, and protection, today’s hoods are designed to be washed regularly. This means they can take regularly being cleaned in a washing machine. Just remember to wash your face coverings with your other PPE, not your clothes, to avoid cross-contamination.
