Masks, Face Shields & Respirators
Masks and face shields are essential for maintaining safety standards on site. In high-risk environments, protective masks and respirators are crucial for safeguarding workers from dust, fumes, and hazardous particles. Choosing the right PPE can significantly reduce health risks and improve job efficiency.
What Jobs Are These Best At?
- Protect against airborne particles during sanding, grinding, and cutting tasks.
- Ensure safety when handling chemicals with vapour and gas respirators.
- Provide respiratory protection in construction and workshop environments.
- Minimise exposure to metal fumes and silica dust in industrial settings.
Choosing the Right One
Consider the environment and specific job hazards.
1. Key factor
If you're working with fine dust, choose an FFP3 mask for maximum filtration.
Dust on Site, The Invisible Enemy
Dust is one of the biggest hidden dangers on site, and it is often underestimated until health issues appear.
Our guide explains the real risks of airborne dust, including silica exposure, why correct respiratory protection matters, and how to reduce dust hazards before they become a serious problem.
Read the dust on site safety guide to understand why the right masks and respirators are essential for long-term health.
FAQs
How often should I replace my mask filters?
Replace filters regularly, based on exposure levels and manufacturer guidelines, to ensure optimal protection.
Who Uses These?
