Rosenbauer has developed a face cover with which people who often come into close contact with others, even in times of the Coronavirus, can better protect themselves: employees in supermarkets, delivery personnel, as well as emergency services personnel, healthcare workers, etc. Tried-and-tested components of the HEROS-titan firefighting helmet are used for the new face cover, the helmet harness system, in particular, has been adapted to current needs. It can be quickly adjusted in multiple directions without the need for tools, and precisely adapted to the individual's head shape.

As a result, the Rosenbauer face cover can be optimally positioned in every direction, and will not slip. As with the original helmet, the head harness is adjusted using a rotary knob, and this adjustment can also be easily carried out while wearing gloves. The large visor covers the entire face from the forehead to the chin, and is shaped so that glasses wearers can use Rosenbauer's face cover without any difficulties.

The complete unit can be easily cleaned and disinfected; the visor is clipped on to the head harness and can be removed at any time. Another advantage is the excellent ventilation afforded by the head harness, which enables long, fatigue-free periods of wear. In order to prevent the inside of the visor from fogging up, it is recommended that one applies a commercially available anti-fogging agent before use.

The adaptation of existing Rosenbauer helmet components has been facilitated by special supplier parts from Burg Design and Schöfer, both companies of the Kurz Group. Rosenbauer's face cover is not personal protective equipment, is not a certified item of eye or face protection, is also not a medical device, and does not meet any standard requirements. Its use remains the sole responsibility of the wearer for the respective intended use.
