Why do we choose FFP3 masks?

FFP3 masks are the most effective protection against bacteria, viruses (and thus against the new Coronavirus), fungal spores and toxic fine particles, as FFP3 masks must capture at least 99% of the particles in the air.

What should we know before we buy an FFP3 mask?

Respiratory masks are manufactured in three filter classes: FFP1 masks, FFP2 masks and FFP3 masks, the acronym FFP itself derived from the term "Filtering Face Piece".

Before buying, you need to know what the mask is for (i.e. what it is intended to protect us from) and then adjust your choice accordingly. If you want to protect yourself from COVID-19, choose a mask of classes COVID-19, FFP3 or FFP2 (you should remember that only some masks of this class can filter particles in Coronavirus size). If you want to work in a dusty environment and protect your airways, a mask with FFP1 rating provides sufficient protection.

What is the reason for choosing FFP3 masks?

1. FFP3 masks can protect against harmful air pollutants in medical environments, are approved by the European Medicines Products Directive (93/42/EEC) and EN14683:2005 Type IIR, can be used as surgical masks and are securely attached.

2. FFP3 masks can protect against harmful air pollutants in medical environments and are approved by European Medical to ensure good, comfortable sealing

3. The panel design allows for greater facial movement and a broad fit

4. The low resistance filter technology in the FFP3 mask helps you to breathe easily

5. The top plate of the FFP3 mask adapts to the contours of nose and face and the soft foam can effectively seal

6. The embossed upper plate of the FFP3 mask helps to reduce the fitting of the glasses

7. The chin pocket of the FFP3 mask is designed for easy positioning and adjustment

How do I use the FFP3 mask properly?

Before entering potentially contaminated areas, you must properly apply the FFP3 mask. You need:

Hold the FFP3 mask in one hand and turn the nose chip upwards.

Place the bottom of the FFP3 mask against your chin while pulling the two bands over your head with the other hand. The lower belt should run directly under your ears above your neck. The upper belt should be above your ears on your head.

Carefully adjust the FFP3 mask to your face without leaving gaps between the mask and your face.

Adjust the nose chip with both hands and make sure the nose chip is firmly attached. It is not recommended to pinch it with just one hand as this may affect the density of the FFP3 mask.

Finally, place your hands on the FFP3 mask so that it does not affect their position, and exhale quickly to check that you have carried out all the steps correctly. Follow the steps above to adjust the nose chip or the entire FFP3 mask accordingly, depending on where you fill the air. If there are no gaps for the air passage, you have the FFP3 mask correctly positioned.
