A new concept in combined eye and
respiratory protection by JSP is
proving an effective and inexpensive
solution to the issue of silica dust,
released by natural stone
and many common
building products
such as concrete
and brick.
Called FilterSpec, the unit combines a mask and disposable filter with safety spectacles or goggles in a way that allows respiratory and eye protection to work together effectively.
FilterSpec, and a goggle version called FilterSpec Pro combine eye and respiratory protection in one integrated PPE unit. They satisfy HSE concerns over fit testing the combinations of PPE normally worn, and eliminate the problem of leaky masks, lens fogging and wearer discomfort.
