The Cactus Washable Face Mask
We are constantly iterating on our products at Cactus. Following customer feedback, we have designed a new Cactus Face Mask that's washable, with replaceable filters (while doing our best to keep all of the goodness from our previous mask).
This Face Mask in a nutshell:
- The woven wool-filter is designed to be more than twice as easy to breathe through than standard masks.
- The filter media used in the mask filters 99% of particles down to 0.3 microns in size - for reference, to meet N95 standard, a filter must block 95% of these particles.
- We've designed it to seal snugly around the face for superior protection with an adjustable nose-wire to form a protective seal.
- Made in NZ - 100% cotton outer and a NZ wool-filter.
IMPORTANT:
- As mentioned above, the filter is tested in-house to P2/N95 levels.
- This face mask is washable but the filter must be removed (check care tab for further information).
- This face mask comes with one filter inside it, and replaceable filter packs are available for purchase.
- Check the care tab above for when to replace your filter.
- Wearing the mask cannot fully remove the risk of infection or contracting a disease.
- Due to face masks being a sanitary product, we cannot accept them for return, refund or exchange for any reason. We recognise this is quite different from the regular Cactus stance on returns/refunds/exchanges but unfortunately the nature of this product gives us no other option.
- Stop using the mask immediately if breathing becomes difficult.
- This Face Mask is a consumer product. It is not a respirator. It is not a medical device. It is not PPE.
Background:
Cactus have teamed up with Lanaco to create a highly efficient, portable Face Mask. We’ve placed Lanaco’s HELIX® woven Filter Media - an innovative natural wool filter - into a soft cotton outer. And voila, filtration that blocks harmful particles, pollution, bacteria and virus. The HELIX®Filter Media, scientifically tested within an inch of its life, proves kiwi sheep have got the goods to protect their two legged friends. In fact it’s so good, NASA are currently testing it to protect their space team.
Care Removing the Mask:
As with any mask used to filter out germs and viruses, care needs to be taken when removing the mask. Make sure you wash your hands thoroughly after touching the mask.
Taking Care of your Mask:
- Store below 30 degrees in a dry place. Keep separately in a sealed bag.
Washing your Mask:
- Remove and dispose of your filter before washing mask. (Washing the filter makes it less effective.)
- Warm gentle machine wash, not above 30 degrees celcius.
- Do not tumble dry. Do not iron. Do not bleach.
Lifetime of your Filter:
This filter works by trapping particles and micro-organisms in the fine filter threads. As such, over time it will need replacing. We would recommend filters being replaced (and the mask itself being washed) every month for normal use and more regularly for heavy use)
Replacing your Filter
If you are removing the filter from your mask, we recommend disposing of it and replacing it.
The mask comes with one filter, and we have filter packs of 5 available to purchase.
The wool, fluffy side of the filter is to face away from you (face down when you insert it into the mask.
This video shows you how to replace the Filter:
Packaging:
For hygiene purposes, we’ve had to package these Face Masks in a plastic bag. We’re not fond of this solution and will be looking for other methods, but in the meantime, let’s find as many ways as we can to ensure this bag is not single use.
NOTE: Our masks are a standard one-size-fits-most. However, due to everybody's face shape being different, we cannot assume it will fit absolutely everyone. Feedback suggests our masks don't work as well on people with beards or large chins.
- Insert the filter
- Place the face mask to your face
- Pull the elastic to a point that it is comfortable but snug (the better the seal on your face, the more effective the mask is)
- Tie a knot in the elastic

Meet the Do-Gooder - don’t let it’s simplicity distract you from it’s complete awesomeness!
Here at the Cactus HQ we get our choice of all the packs and bags we sell, and the one the you’ll see us with more than anything else is the Do-Gooder. It started out as reusable shopping bag that would really go the distance, but once we made a few we quickly realised it had far more potential than that.
You’ll see us bring our lunch and office essentials to work in a Do-Gooder, stuffing the roadtrip “get at them while you’re driving” bit and pieces in one, carrying muddy cycling shoes and helmets around, and loading them with beers and sausages when it’s BBQ time. At the farmers market the Do-Gooder makes the other pseudo-eco plastic bag alternatives look disposable.
We wanted Cactus tough, so 12oz C-Canvas was the obvious choice - it’s so tough we carried Jan in it round the office. Your guess as to how much she weighs, but more than Rob (who back when he was a climber referred to his forearms as “Da Boyz”) could carry in one hand! Cactus durability means it’ll last a really long time, and of course it comes with a lifetime warranty even though we doubt you’ll need it. It’s also easily repairable. Yes, long lasting and repairable - that’s all good stuff for the environment we reckon.
- Super durable and washable proofed European 12oz C-Canvas
- Deep enough for good carrying capacity
- Pre-bent straps that stay on your shoulder
- Internal pocket to make sure your phone/wallet/keys aren't always at the bottom
- Construction backed by a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship
- Weight: 275 grams
- Fabric: 12oz Ultra C-Canvas
- Measurements: 41cm deep (or high whichever way you see it) x 15cm wide x 34cm long (along the zip)
- Our C-Canvas has a water resistant coating applied to it. To make this last as long as possible we recommend that you don’t wash it in a machine
- Brush dirt or crusty stuff from the bag once it is dry
- Hand wash in cold or warm water using mild detergent or pure soap - preferably one that's nice to the earth
- Drip dry without creases
- If your veggies do manage to make an escape bid through the bottom of your bag, drop it in to use and we’ll repair it for a small fee

It's been the go-to style of summer (or winter) hat for generations and will continue to be - especially now that Cactus has made one.

We're not reinventing the wheel here. A sock is a sock. But like all things Cactus, we've made sure that these ones will go the distance. We did the ultimate test and made Rob wear a pair. Cactus socks will keep your toes toasty warm, make your shoes more comfortable, last for ages and being merino - shouldn't stink.*
For all you old school people out there who think they'll be too warm for summer, Merino is not only super warm in the winter, it's also super breathable in the summer.

Any dog can have a regular collar, but a Cactus dog deserves a Cactus collar.
Made in New Zealand from premium quality American steer leather, this collar is built to suit both a serious working dog or a furry companion. With natural finish top grain leather, a heavy-duty buckle and a welded square keeper – this beauty could take on more than just a dog.
Please do not use the collar in salt water as it will rust the metal parts.
The supplier: We want nothing but the best quality products for Cactus customers, which is why we left the leather crafting to the pros over at Taurus. Taurus have been making super tough leather products for building, farming and the outdoors right here in New Zealand since 1988. Everything is carefully constructed from top quality leather and built to last the distance. Just like Cactus, their gear wears in, not out, as the leather moulds to your body with every use.

In the old days, before log carriers, we used to load up an armload of wood, wince at the elbow tendonitis, then drop one bit, bend over awkwardly to pick it up, watch another piece roll off, swear loudly, get stuck by a splinter, get covered in wood chips and dust, get told off for brushing off the jersey onto the carpet indoors … then repeat that whole process three or four times every evening.
Enter the Cactus Log Carrier – a simple, clever, no-fuss solution to the daily task of shifting firewood.
Bring in three armloads at a time (2-4 depending on your arm-span). Dump it in the basket, or lay out on the carrier itself. Save your elbows, save time, save fuss.
Use it to carry all sorts of items – tools, children, hedge-trimmings, a couple of slabs … the list is pretty much endless.

Introducing our waste not, want-not cap made from Cactus canvas scraps. The Recap Original is a 5-panel flat-peak cap. Scraps to treasure, this cap is a feel-good (and look-better) option.
We also put it to you (our customers) to name this beaut, and Thomas came up with 'Recap.' Thanks Tom.
