About us

We are an Adeliade based small business, born from the harsh working conditions of the Australian outback.

Designer and former NASA engineer Nick Avery, started Outback Mask in 2018 while building solar farms across Australia. Working long shifts in 43C (109F) degree temperatures, extreme UV indexes (11-16), dust storms and relentless bush flies led him to create a better solution.

Nick was surpised to ​have found many workers not using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) because of discomfort and incompatibility associated with the available products.

Soon after, tradies from all disciplines and DIY-ers were all asking about Outback Mask.
