Face Fit Testing – Ensure Proper Respiratory Protection

Protect Your Workforce with Certified Face Fit Testing

Face Fit Testing is an essential procedure designed to ensure that respiratory protective equipment (RPE) provides an effective seal to the wearer’s face, minimizing exposure to hazardous airborne substances. This test is crucial for compliance with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regulations, ensuring that employees working in hazardous environments receive proper protection from dust, fumes, vapors, and other harmful particles.

Who Needs Face Fit Testing?

Face Fit Testing is mandatory for individuals who are required to wear tight-fitting respiratory protective equipment (RPE), including:

• Construction workers exposed to dust and silica

• Healthcare professionals using respirators to protect against airborne infections

• Manufacturing and industrial workers handling hazardous chemicals or fine particles

• Asbestos removal teams and demolition workers

• Spray painters and decorators exposed to toxic fumes

• Warehouse and logistics personnel working in environments with airborne contaminants

Key Benefits of Face Fit Testing
