Well this settles the point:

Health Canada has requested data from manufacturers to assess potential health risks, it said.

That includes local company ZEN Graphene Solutions, which has supplied graphene-based coating for masks and filters made by Collingwood-based Trebor Rx. A surgical mask using the graphene coating has not yet gone to market, but could potentially have begun distribution this month.

Reached Sunday, ZEN CEO Greg Fenton said the masks had undergone rigorous safety testing, including on lab animals, and passed Health Canada testing requirements as a Class II medical device.

Health Canada issued its advisory after becoming aware that masks containing graphene had been sold “with COVID-19 claims” and used by adults and children in schools and daycares, it said. They may also have been distributed in health care settings.

Any face masks containing graphene will remain off the market until Health Canada has completed a more thorough assessment, it said.
