To solve the problem of incompatible
safety eyewear and disposable masks,
JSP has developed FilterSpec, which
combines a mask and disposable filter
with safety spectacles or goggles in
one unit in a way that allows 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. Combining eye and respiratory protection into one unit avoids this, and overcomes the problem of leaky masks and fogged lenses that often occur when one item of PPE compromises another. FilterSpec and a goggle version called FilterSpec Pro, allow both eye and respiratory protection to work as an integrated unit, so that a perfect fit is achieved for both items of PPE. The lens is anti-mist and anti-scratch coated as standard.
