      Wuhan Topmed Trading Co

      From the image. It says made in Brazil.

        Ahh Nice, wonder if the president touched them or not.

      • King Tightarse on 05/08/2020 - 12:38

        Very strange to have 'made in Brazil' AND Wuhan Topmed Trading Co Hongshan District
        Wuhan, Hubei, 430070, China

          Not strange at all

          I can confirm that the Softmed 10 pack of masks from CW say Made In Brazil on the packaging. There is no mention of anything associated with China.

          Thx to Google Lens:

          MADE IN BRAZIL

          Manufactured by "JSM INDUSTRIA E COMERCIO DE PRODUTOS MANUFATURADOS LTDA"

          • Turd on 07/08/2020 - 14:02

            @nismo: What's to say that they arent repacked in Brazil but the masks itself are Made in China?

            Look at this one - "Made in Australia" - https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/102313/softmed-surgi…

            • nismo on 07/08/2020 - 15:43

              @Turd: I don't disagree with you.

              Re: the Aus Made ones, those do seem suspicious. I don't know how they could set up manufacture of a mask so quickly, especially based on your info below.

              (leased space in July 2020)

              • Turd on 07/08/2020 - 15:44

                @nismo: There is only one logical conclusion. :)

    Based on the TGA ARTG number and the description of the product as well as the image, it appears to be made by SoftMed. These masks have been on these previous deals before:

      The Chemist Warehouse one is still available for $39.99 Delivered or 2 for $70.

      • Devil on 05/08/2020 - 16:22

        The ones at Chemist Warehouse that are 2 for $70 aren't surgical ones like the ones above.

        Surgical ones are $39.99 (no combo discount).

        • RichardL on 05/08/2020 - 16:23

          Yep, I linked those below.

      Thanks! I'm associated, but I didnt saw these previous deals. Looks like it's not the cheapest ever, but still quite a good price if you only buy 1 box

  • aussman on 05/08/2020 - 12:37

    been cheaper at
    coles
    chemist warehouse

    • Phil22 on 05/08/2020 - 13:29

      Yes, for $1-2. You get these delivered to your door. I think this is a better, or at least comparable deal. Certainly not worthy of a neg.

      • henrus on 05/08/2020 - 14:25

        Got a box of 50 from Amazon for $28 with other things in the order it bumps it up over the mythical $39 free shipping fee.

        its not oz4thbestprice.com.au
        3 cheaper places listed above

          And shipping is offered by Coles? For those who don’t have the capacity or don’t want to go out, this is the best option for an additional $1-2. I believe Coles and CW are now more expensive than this deal

  • RichardL on 05/08/2020 - 12:41

    Chemist Warehouse also selling Softmed Surgical Face Masks 50 Pack (Australian Made) - $39.99

  • wordpickle on 05/08/2020 - 13:13

    Do you have dentist gargle and some plastic gloves I can stick in my mouth to replicate the fun of a dentist but at home?

      We have different hobby 😐 but sure, we have blue,pink, or if you prefer
      XL in black

        Not sure which size to get. Once I go for the black XL one, can I go back?

  • Bettyboo on 05/08/2020 - 13:37

    Chemist warehouse review is not very good. has anyone used it?

    • Banana on 05/08/2020 - 13:45

      Can confirm it's not the greatest quality. Mine saw one of the rubber band snapped mid-shopping. I had to hold the mask up with one of my hands for the rest of the shopping trip, left feeling like I'd peed my pants.

  • CyberMurning on 05/08/2020 - 14:29

    i think i saw on TV there is a face mask factory in Australia, the first one built and running already with like thousands thousands output per day.
    why still expensive? before covid normal price is like $18-20 a box of 50 pcs, yeah?

  • aussman on 05/08/2020 - 14:42

    link goes to masks that are level 2 not 3 so inferior and more expensive to coles chemist warehouse and others

    • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 05/08/2020 - 17:00

      Hey, I'm curious about the differences. I'll check my local CW to see which one they actually stock

      Somewhat related, ADA has provided a guide for dental professionals exposed to fluid contamination on a daily basis. Level 2 is acceptable.

  • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 07/08/2020 - 13:08

    So I have spoken with a person involved in sourcing this. Apparently Softmed has at least 2 sources of manufacturer, China and Brazil. The one made in China is inferior, and although it says level 3 protection, the "level 3" is not the same as Australian standard. Inspect closely the inner packaging if you buy elsewhere, not just the box.

    We initially received both products in our warehouse and has returned all the made in China ones. If you buy from us, they are all made in Brazil.

    • Turd on 07/08/2020 - 13:49

      Do the ones made in Brazil are actually made in Brazil? And not just repackaged in Brazil?

      For example this softmed one says made in Australia. But clearly arent. - https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/102313/softmed-surgi…

      FYI Brazil is number 2 in the world for corona virus infections - https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

      • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 07/08/2020 - 13:54

        No idea unfortunately. Just to be clear, I'm not taking issue of where these are made as long as the quality is up to standard. Just a fact that we received several complaints for the Made in China ones, and none so far for the Made in Brazil

        • Turd on 07/08/2020 - 14:00

          Would be good if someone did a clinical tests and to comparing the two.

          If softmed can say they have "Made in Australia" masks - https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/102313/softmed-surgi… But infact are just repacked Made in China masks…

          And at the same time say they have Made in Brazil masks, what's to say the company in Brazil hasnt done the same thing, and just repacked Made in China masks.

          You cant trust this. Especially when it's profits over medicine/human life.

          • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 07/08/2020 - 14:08

            @Turd: We did compared the 2 and they are different physically. At the time of comparison the chinese mask is blue and the brazil mask is white.

            • Turd on 07/08/2020 - 14:10

              @djprima: Cool still I personally wouldnt trust this brand.
              Regardless of where it is "made" from.

              Someone needs to do scientific tests and regulation into masks.

            • aussman on 07/08/2020 - 14:24

              @djprima: china ones can be white as well Coles has pallets of these

              • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 07/08/2020 - 14:48

                @aussman: Then there's no easy way to tell now. I guess generally look at the build quality, Softmed could likely switch manufacturer. If it's good, why not

        • eug on 07/08/2020 - 14:02

          ust a fact that we received several complaints for the Made in China ones, and none so far for the Made in Brazil

          What were the complaints about?

          • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 07/08/2020 - 14:13

            @eug: Quality issue with the earloops, and general build quality

  • Employeedjprima @ Healthcare Xpress on 08/08/2020 - 07:15

    Some audits have begun. Hope this will limit circulation of fake masks out there.
