The why behind what we do.
No one wants to wear a mask if they don’t have to, including us. But unfortunately there are numerous threats to our health that come from the air we breathe and the best known defense to reduce exposure is the use of an effective filtering face mask. O2TODAY is committed to working with our community to improve upon existing products and provide protective face wear for a variety of needs so the public can breathe safer and in style.
