What is the best dust mask for construction work?
For construction, especially when dealing with fine dust or silica, an FFP2 or FFP3 dust mask offers the best protection. These masks filter out harmful airborne particles and are often required on UK job sites for compliance with health and safety regulations.
What’s the difference between a dust mask and a respirator?
A dust mask is typically a lightweight, disposable face covering for filtering non-toxic dust. A respirator, like an FFP2 or full-face mask, provides a tighter seal and protects against finer particles, hazardous dust, and some fumes. Respirators often include filters for more advanced protection.
Are FFP2 dust masks reusable?
Most FFP2 masks are designed for single use, but reusable FFP2 respirators are available and can be fitted with replaceable filters. Always check the manufacturer’s guidance to determine whether a dust mask is disposable or reusable.
Do I need a special mask for silica dust?
Yes. Silica dust is highly dangerous - we suggest a FFP3 mask for disposable masks, or a P3 filter used with a reusable respirator.
