Protect your Health With a Quality Safety Mask
Try the innovative safety mask at these stockists
A safety mask protects your health and reduces your risk of contracting metal fume fever, a condition that commonly afflicts individuals working with certain metals, such as welders. Vaporous metal and its compounds are toxic and enter the lungs and bloodstream of unprotected individuals. Metal fume fever ranges in severity from mild flu-like symptoms to rapid loss of consciousness. A quality, certified safety mask filters out these harmful particles and promotes workplace safety for welders like you.

What Are the Symptoms of Metal Fume Fever?
The severity and duration of metal fume fever depends largely on the type of metal vapour inhaled. Notoriously dangerous metals include lead, mercury and cadmium - these are potentially carcinogenic and have been associated with organ damage and adverse effects on the central nervous system.
A quality safety mask is certified and meets stringent industry standards. The Australian Standard AS/NZS1716 dictates that safety face masks must filter at least 99% of particles 0.3?m and above.
How does the Safety Mask Keep Hazardous Fumes At Bay?
What kind of safety mask do you usually wear when welding metal? Depending on the mechanism involved, safety dust masks work differently to protect your health. They are broadly classified into negative and positive pressure masks - a safety mask that utilises the former works when users inhale, creating negative pressure in the mask. This is known as a passive safety mask because it relies on the user's breathing to draw air through the filter. As such, a negative pressure safety mask has to fit snugly on the user's face in order to keep contaminants out. This is often uncomfortable when worn for a long period of time.
A positive pressure safety mask, on the other hand is motor-powered. Positive air pressure in the mask ensures air flows outwards, which means that carbon dioxide from exhalation is flushed out. This gives you fresh and cool air. Apart from the comfort factor, the positive pressure mechanism also means a higher level of filtration, helping you keep contaminants such as hazardous metal fumes at bay.
