Masks are one of the most effective means of protecting the skin of the face, respiratory tract, mucous membranes and eyes from the following factors: Protective masks are commonly used in a wide variety of manufacturing and construction industries. They are made of heavy-duty materials that are resistant to high temperatures, each mask must have fasteners for fixing. Some models provide an additional elongated visor that covers the forehead when working with sharp and flammable tools - this allows you to increase the level of protection, as well as to greatly reduce the risk of injury to the user. Some types of masks are made together with a metallized mesh, which includes a large number of tiny cells. This structural element helps to increase human security and avoid any micro-damage. A group of masks, which are called "respirators", stands apart. They are designed to protect the human respiratory system from all kinds of chemical and physical impurities in the inhaled air - this can be construction dust, aerosol sprays, carbon monoxide, smoke, toxic substances and many other harmful factors that a worker may encounter while performing his job duties. All types of protective masks are divided into those intended for domestic use and used for industrial purposes. In general, it should be noted that in the industrial world there are a lot of personal protective equipment. All of them are lightweight, ergonomic and adjustable in safety.
When choosing a mask for the street, it is important to pay attention to the fabric from which it is sewn. To protect the leather from frost, the best manufacturers use high quality synthetics.Depending on which production method is involved, there are different degrees of protection.
As a rule, the composition includes the following components: Depending on which production method is involved, there are different degrees of protection. As a rule, the composition includes the following components: Among the popular models are masks made of fleece with microfiber. Snood or buff can be made of natural wool. Modern models are made of modern synthetics with a six-channel weave. Air circulation is not disturbed, but the mask effectively protects against moisture. Some manufacturers additionally treat products to prevent unpleasant odor and sweat in order to extend the life of the product. For the best protection, it is recommended to choose mask models that are tight to the skin. Products with a membrane firmly protect from moisture and withstand low temperatures down to -40 degrees. For people who are actively involved in sports (skiing, snowboarding), this is the best option for protection. Being in the cold for a long time, the body starts the production of cytokines. These are molecules that send signals to the cells of the epidermis, which leads to the cessation of evaporation, and the cell walls begin to thicken. However, if there is a malfunction of the cells, cytokines instead of signals begin to transmit false information. As a result: water imbalance (dryness), red rashes and irritation. In frosty weather, the sebum produced cannot fully protect the skin from wind and cold temperatures. Therefore, drying is observed. People with oily skin will hardly notice the difference. For normal or dry epidermis, the lack of protection can make things worse. With a decrease in temperature, the protective barrier of the epidermis begins to weaken, which leads to its vulnerability to frost. Microcracks appear on the skin, which heal slowly. The cessation of the production of hyaluronic acid and collagen is also recorded, due to which the regeneration of the epidermis slows down, elasticity is lost, redness and unbearable itching occur. Today, one of the leaders in the market of protective masks is CJSC "MONA", this manufacturer offers models of protective masks in three main series: half masks of the 6000 and 7500 series, as well as face masks 6000. Each series contains several models of different sizes, all of them have standard connectors for fixing filter units. The most common products are shown below.

Before you buy a protective mask for workers, manufacturing and construction specialties, you need to pay special attention to certain features of their operation.
If you intend to use isolation masks for respiratory protection from chemicals, it is better to give preference to respirators with built-in filters.
Pay your attention to the fact that in such products a special mechanism for removing steam must be provided for - it will allow the employee to perform his duties for a long time.If there is no such element in the structure, the glass will quickly fog up, and a person simply will not be able to do business. Do not forget that the light filter, according to safety regulations, should be triggered in the event of electric flashes in a split second. If the system takes longer to run, it causes quite serious damage to the retina. For information on how to choose a respirator, see the next video. The choice of masks is wide - they can be disposable and reusable, face and respiratory. Often they have holes, a protective screen, and a shield, some masks use a forced air supply system. Depending on the materials to be made, they can be fabric or plastic. There are many reasons for the classification - let's dwell on the most common ones. Depending on the design features, there are: All models on sale are divided into collapsible and non-collapsible. The second ones have a more democratic cost, but at the same time they do not provide for the possibility of replacing failed parts. The price of collapsible ones is an order of magnitude higher - however, their removable structural parts can be easily changed in case of wear. Masks designed to protect the respiratory tract from toxic gases and harmful suspended particles in the air must have filters, most often they are fabric with the addition of a layer of sorbents. To work with a grinder, models of masks with visors are usually used. As a rule, such elements are additionally equipped with special fasteners, thanks to which the flap does not fall during work. Visors are most often made of a transparent solid-cast material, usually polycarbonate, less often there are models on a metal basis - the latter solution is a flat surface with a large number of stainless steel cells. All face shields are available in standard standard sizes or extended. Such models are optimal for protecting not only the skin of the face, but also the neck and chest - this is especially important when in contact with flammable instruments. Protective masks can have different types of attachment. Masks are made from a wide variety of materials.
Polycarbonate. One of the most popular types of masks, it helps protect users from severe injuries that they can receive as a result of mechanical shock. This polymer reliably protects the user's skin and eyes from solid particles. In addition, polycarbonate is often used when working with hazardous chemicals, as well as metal scales.

This product is made of wool and polycolon, so it perfectly retains heat and does not allow cold air to pass through. It can be used in frost from -1 to -40 degrees. In appearance, this mask resembles a gas mask or respirator. The designs of these masks have special holders for the head and ears and air resistance valves. The peculiarity of these funds is that in addition to protecting the face from frost, they serve as a kind of trainer for the respiratory system and lungs.

CONTACTS: “Construction or hygiene masks are often sold on the Internet under the guise of medical masks. Construction is designed to protect against dust, dirt. Hygienic is a textile product. Their protective properties have not been established or proven by anyone, ”explains Elena Saratseva. Meanwhile, taking advantage of the excitement, unscrupulous sellers claim the antibacterial and antiviral properties of non-medical products: personal protective equipment (abbreviated as PPE) and household protective masks. Personal protective equipment is construction and other respirators and masks used in hazardous, but not biologically dirty production. If the marking (or on the mask itself) says "TR TS 019/2011" - this is PPE. They, depending on the degree of protection, protect the respiratory system from dust, shavings, cement, coal, pollen, sawdust, asbestos, solvents, welding and other harmful gases, mold spores. The degree of protection can be marked on the FFP scale. Only products with the FFP3 label, as well as products with the American N99 label, claim to be protected from bacteria and viruses.
