Respiratory Protection
Shop Popular Categories
When it comes to respiratory protection, full-face and half-face respirators are most commonly used to provide quality nose and mouth coverage while working in environments that contain contaminants and/or pollutants in the air. Both half-face and full-face respirators will create a facial seal and provide mouth and nose protection. However, a full face mask will also cover your eyes and they have built in ventilation to allow for easy breathing while keeping particles and irritants out.
Choosing the right respiratory protection can seem like a difficult task when there are so many options available. That's why we recommend that our customers start with determining which elements they need protection against first. Then, it will become much easier to chose the correct product that will be best for you.
Reasons to consider full-face protection
- If splash, spray, and eye protection is needed.
- If working with hazards that can irritate the eyes
- If working with fine particles like dust or spray paint
- If other PPE is not required (prescription glasses or face shields can effect seal)
