Respiratory protection

Respiratory protection can be an excellent protective measure if hazardous substances are used in your workplace or if dust particles are flying around. If these substances enter your airways, this can have unpleasant consequences. At best, you may experience some discomfort when breathing in dust particles, but at worst, you may experience serious health problems. It may also happen that the air in your workplace contains too little oxygen. Or too much. So it is important that you protect your lungs. Fortunately, you don't have to look further than the Unishore Workwear webshop. In our range you will find 3M respiratory protection, but also dust masks, gas masks, welding fume masks, face masks and associated accessories from very good brands such as Moldex, 3M and OXXA. This way you can get to work without having to worry about your breathing.

Types of respiratory protection

In a sense, all respiratory protective equipment do the same: they ensure that you can continue to breathe and that the air you take in is completely free of hazardous substances. Yet there are many different protective equipment for your breathing on the market. After all, every workplace has its own circumstances. For example, if your working environment only involves flying dust particles, a dust mask already offers sufficient protection. This covers the nose and mouth so that substances cannot enter there. There is often a filter on these masks. This is a simple, cost-effective way to protect the breathing of you and your employees. Especially because dust masks in our webshop are available in value packs, so that you can purchase a large number of dust masks for a good price.

Dust masks are a form of dependent respiratory protection. This type of protective equipment uses the air in the environment. Many face masks also belong to this category. As long as there is at least 19 percent oxygen in the air, you can use these masks with confidence. However, it may happen that this oxygen percentage is not achieved. In that case you need self-contained respiratory protection. Such a system consists of a mask and an air line or air canister. This form of respiratory protection may only be used by employees who have been trained for this. Because the working environment in which this method of respiratory protection is required is often quite specialized, it is quite normal for employees to be extensively trained in this. If toxic particulate matter is present in your working environment, P3 respiratory protection is mandatory.

Respiratory protective equipment and accessories

Our range of respiratory protective equipment is very extensive. You can choose from different models of dust masks that are not only designed to protect your airways, but also to be as comfortable as possible. That makes work a lot more pleasant, especially if you are expected to wear the dust mask all day. You will also find some full face masks in our range. These multifunctional protective equipment are often slightly more expensive, but do combine the protective properties of two types of personal protective equipment. To protect your respiratory tract, attach dust, vapor or gas filters to the mask, which also serves as eye protection. This way, your entire face is protected against potentially dangerous substances at once. So you do not need to purchase additional eye protection.

You can of course also purchase filters from us. You can attach dust filters as well as gas and vapor filters to many of the half-face masks and full-face masks. Therefore, these products are compatible for different tasks. It is not the case that every filter fits on every mask, but we will mention for each product which filters are suitable for use with that specific mask. This way you can always be sure that you order the correct filters for your masks. It is of course also possible the other way around: you are guaranteed to order the correct mask with the filters you still have. After all, you must be able to assume that the items you order will provide the protection you will need in the workplace.
