Keep the fit

JSP is reminding anyone selecting
breathing protection to ensure that
protection is compatible with other
PPE such as eye protection.

JSP’ solution to this problem is the
FilterSpec, a unit which combines a
mask and disposable filter with safety
spectacles or goggles into one unit
allowing both protective devices to
work independently, but in
harmony.

Fit testing of tight fitting
respiratory protection is mandatory
and should be conducted with
workers wearing their usual PPE;
when different eye and respiratory
PPE are later used the fit test results
become irrelevant. The FilterSpec
overcomes the problem of leaky
masks and fogged lenses that often
occur when one item of PPE
compromises another.
