Introducing the FFP2 Disposable Respirator. This cup-shaped disposable respirator has been designed with multi-layered filtration and a staple-free construction that offers superior respiratory protection against fine, toxic dust, fumes and water-based mist. It features a contoured nose seal and adjustable nose clip for greater comfort, making it easier to wear and use for longer periods of time and ideal for everyday use. Respiratory masks are a key piece of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) when working in environments with fine dust particles and toxic mists that could cause respiratory damage.

These respirators generally will last about 8 hours or when it becomes too difficult to breathe and are disposable when they no longer offer full protection

As part of the EN149:2001 standard it has designated into three ratings. FFP3 offers the highest protection compared to FFP2 and FFP1.

• FFP1

This protects against low levels of dust, as well as solid and liquid aerosols. They filter at least 80% of the particles, with a maximum leakage amount of 25%. Used within the construction or food processing industry.

• FFP2

This protects against moderate levels of dust, as well as solid and liquid aerosols. They provide higher protection than the FFP1. They filter at least 94% of the particles, with a maximum leakage amount of 11%. Used within the metal, medical and mining also the construction industry for plastering and sanding tasks.

• FFP3

This protects against high levels of dust, as well as solid and liquid aerosols. They provide higher protection than the FFP1. They filter at least 99% of the particles, with a maximum leakage amount of 5%. Used within the medical and chemistry industry.
