EI170RF As Swine Flu cases increase in the UK, it is important to look at ways to protect yourself and your family / business from the virus and prevent the infection from spreading. The World Health Organisation (WHO) have recommended breathing apparatus to the European standard FFP2 (94% filter performance) in known Swine Flu areas. There are three levels of Filtering Face Pieces (FFP) ratings:

  • FFP1: for activities during which there is contact with suspected cases
  • FFP2: for activities in which there can be exposure to coughing outbursts
  • FFP3: for “pronounced exposure” in the medical environment
Safelincs now stock the superior FFP3 rated Draeger X-plore 1730 FFP3 Valved Swine Flu Mask, which offers 8 hours protection against Swine Flu and other harmful air-bound bacteria viruses. Draeger is the leading specialist for breathing apparatus and respiratory infection protection.

The German made mask is made from Draegers CoolSAFE™ filter material, which combines low breathing resistance and high filter performance. The mask is also fitted with a exhalation valve to aid controlled exhalation and allow easy normal breathing. The mask is fitted with a safe sealing nose pad and top clip to ensure a comfortable tight seal is made around the nose area.

Manufactured in Germany, the Draeger mask offers excellent quality and performance at a reasonable price. For more information on this product, visit our Swine Flu mask section.
