Description

Features:

Usage: They are crucial in high-risk environments, such as healthcare settings during aerosol-generating procedures (AGPs), or industrial work involving heavy metals, hardwood dust, and radioactive substances.

Face Fit Testing: A proper, tight seal is vital for the mask to be effective. The UK’s Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and NHS guidance require all tight-fitting face pieces to be face fit tested to ensure a secure fit for the wearer.

Types: They are available as disposable or reusable half-masks with replaceable P3 filters, and can be valved (easier breathing, but only protects the wearer) or unvalved (protects both the wearer and others).

Specification: UK Certification: All FFP3 masks sold in the UK must be CE marked and comply with the EN 149:2001+A1:2009 standard. Total inward leakage: Maximum of 2%.
