The Story Behind Our Masks
At Mercado Global, we invest in people - our indigenous artisans, our communities, our supporters like you – and now, the doctors and nurses who are saving lives, while risking their own. For each high-quality mask purchased, we’ll make sure another gets in the hands of those working on the frontlines of the pandemic, completely free of charge.

In the early stages of the pandemic, we worked closely with our artisans to quickly shift from producing fashion accessories to protective masks that are FDA compliant, sustainably made, and a step below the N95. Each mask has been handmade by one of our trained artisans – indigenous women living in rural Guatemala – who will continue receiving a living wage and critical support.

Although factories in Guatemala have been closed due to the government lockdown to prevent the spread of the virus – for which the country is completely unprepared to handle – our innovative home-based, high volume production model has ensured our artisans can stay safe and home isolate.

The Masks

Our masks are one-of-a-kind – they are highly effective, eco-friendly, and provide critical income to our indigenous artisans in rural Guatemala. They were designed in collaboration with the Cleveland Clinic and Stanford Medical School to ensure FDA compliancy.

Your Mercado Global mask can be reused daily for months or even years, and are easily sanitized. Comfort was one of our top priorities, since many masks aren’t as effective when they’re difficult to wear or worn incorrectly.

BONUS: our masks are made sustainably with biodegradable materials (except for the elastic backing). Each one is made with recycled scrap fabric from our production line – working to minimize waste and use these leftover pieces for good.

Wear Instructions

Wash your hands prior to putting on your mask and after removing it. Pull the bottom band over your head, then glide the mask up over your face and secure the second band behind your head. Make sure the mask fits snug on your face, minimizing any gaps. If the mask is too loose, knot the elastic bands at the ends for a tighter fit. Avoid touching your face or adjusting your mask unnecessarily once it’s on.

Care Instructions
Each mask has been washed prior to packaging, however washing before use is recommended. Machine wash in hot water with detergent. Dry on high heat.
