Compare disposable dust masks, reusable half masks, full-face respirators and replacement filters. The range includes different FFP classes and filter types, so choose by the assessed contaminant and required protection.

A respirator must also suit the wearer and task. Check fitting, compatibility and use instructions before ordering; a particle filter does not automatically protect against gases or vapours.

Portwest P100 FFP1 Respirators are disposable cup-shaped masks supplied in a pack of 20. The shaped body provides space around the mouth, while an adjustable nose clip and padded nose area help the wearer position the mask. Welded head straps hold the respirator in place during use. Choose this FFP1 model only where the workplace assessment identifies it as suitable for the particles and exposure involved. Check the supplied label, fit-test the selected model to the wearer and follow the fitting instructions each time it is worn. Keep unused masks clean and dry, inspect before use and replace a mask when damaged, contaminated or no longer serviceable.

Portwest P201 FFP2 Valved Respirators combine a moulded cup shape with an exhalation valve and adjustable nose bar. The valve helps release heat and moisture from inside the facepiece, while padding around the nose adds comfort at the upper edge. Welded head straps hold the respirator in position. This listing supplies ten disposable P201 masks. Select the model using the workplace respiratory-protection assessment and arrange face-fit testing for the wearer. Check the fit with any required eyewear or other PPE, and follow the fitting instructions each time. Store unused masks clean and dry and replace a respirator when it is damaged, contaminated or breathing becomes difficult.

Portwest P203 FFP2 Valved Dolomite Respirators are disposable cup-shaped masks supplied in a pack of ten. The exhalation valve helps release warm, moist air, and an adjustable nose clip allows the upper edge to be positioned for the wearer. Welded elastic straps help keep the mask in place. The P203 carries the additional D marking for the optional dolomite clogging test. Select it only where its FFP2 classification matches the assessed exposure and the model passes face-fit testing for the wearer. Follow the fitting and seal-check instructions each time, check compatibility with other PPE and replace masks when their condition or breathing resistance requires it.

Portwest P220 FFP2 Carbon Valved Respirators combine a disposable cup-shaped facepiece with an activated-carbon layer for nuisance odours. The exhalation valve helps release heat and moisture, while an adjustable nose bar and foam padding support positioning at the upper edge. Welded straps hold the mask in place. Each pack contains ten P220 respirators. The carbon layer should not be treated as a substitute for a correctly selected gas or vapour filter system. Confirm the actual exposure and required protection before use, and arrange face-fit testing for the wearer. Follow the fitting, storage and replacement instructions, checking the seal and condition of the mask each time it is worn.

Portwest P223 FFP2 Carbon Valved Dolomite Respirators combine a cup-shaped facepiece with an activated carbon layer for nuisance odours. Each pack contains ten disposable masks, with nose padding, an adjustable nose clip and welded elastic head straps. An exhalation valve helps release warm air from inside the facepiece. The FFP2 NR D marking identifies the particle protection class, non-reusable designation and optional dolomite clogging test. Choose this model only when it meets the workplace exposure assessment and fits the individual wearer. The carbon layer does not replace a suitable gas or vapour filter. Arrange face-fit testing and follow the supplied fitting, seal-check and replacement instructions.

Portwest P250 FFP2 Fold Flat Respirators offer a compact format for storing and issuing disposable masks. The pack contains twenty individually wrapped respirators, helping keep unused masks clean until they are needed. Each facepiece opens from a vertical fold and includes nose padding, an adjustable nose clip and welded head straps. This non-valved model is classified FFP2 NR under EN 149. Its protection level must match the assessed airborne-particle hazard, and a face-fit test is needed for each wearer using this model. Check the seal at every fitting, keep the mask compatible with other PPE and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for replacement, storage and disposal.

Portwest P301 FFP3 Valved Respirators are disposable cup-shaped masks supplied in packs of ten. An internal foam gasket runs around the facepiece, while the adjustable nose clip and wide adjustable head straps allow the wearer to position the mask. The exhalation valve helps release warm air during use. The P301 is classified FFP3 NR under EN 149. Select it through a workplace exposure assessment and confirm the model is suitable for the individual with face-fit testing. A higher filter class alone does not guarantee adequate protection. Follow the fitting instructions, check the seal each time and replace the respirator in line with its condition and the manufacturer’s limits.

Portwest P351 FFP3 Valved Dolomite Fold Flat Respirators combine a compact vertical fold with an exhalation valve. Twenty individually wrapped masks are supplied per pack, making unused respirators straightforward to store and issue. The nose clip and padded nose bridge help position the facepiece, while welded head straps hold it in place. The FFP3 NR D classification includes the optional dolomite clogging-test designation. Select this model only after assessing the task and confirming face fit for the wearer. Check the product batch before use, including the historical notice for lot XI1122APL described below. Follow the supplied instructions for fitting, seal checks, replacement and disposal.

The Portwest P410 Auckland Half Mask is a reusable respirator with a soft TPE facepiece and two threaded filter connections. Its low-profile shape leaves space around the eyes, while an adjustable quick-release harness helps position the mask. An exhalation valve releases warm air from inside the facepiece during use. Filters are sold separately and must be selected for both this connection system and the assessed workplace hazard. The P410 uses compatible Portwest screw-in filters; bayonet cartridges are a different fitting. Arrange face-fit testing for the wearer, check the seal every time the mask is fitted and maintain the facepiece according to the supplied cleaning and inspection instructions.

The Portwest P430 Geneva Half Mask is a reusable silicone facepiece for compatible Portwest bayonet filters. Its support harness attaches to the rigid mask body, helping distribute the fastening load around the facepiece. The half-mask design covers the nose and mouth, leaving the eye area available for suitable separate protection. Filters are sold separately, so select the complete assembly for the contaminants and exposure levels identified by the workplace assessment. P941 particle filters and P971 combination filters have different purposes even though both fit this system. Confirm the correct model and fit with face-fit testing, check the seal on every fitting and follow the supplied cleaning and maintenance instructions.

The Portwest P500 Vienna Full Face Mask combines a thermoplastic rubber facepiece with a panoramic polycarbonate visor. Its six-point adjustable harness uses quick-release buckles, and the visor has anti-fog and anti-scratch treatments. Two bayonet connections accept compatible Portwest filters, which are supplied separately from the mask. The facepiece is classified to EN 136 Class 2, but the protection available depends on the filters selected and the quality of the face seal. Assess the contaminants and exposure levels before choosing the complete assembly. Arrange face-fit testing for the wearer, check the seal before every use and follow Portwest’s instructions for cleaning, inspection and filter replacement.

Portwest P941 P3 R Particle Filters use the Portwest bayonet connection for compatible reusable half and full-face masks. This pack contains six filters, providing three matched pairs for twin-filter facepieces. The particle-filter design is intended for assessed airborne-particle hazards and must be used with a suitable, correctly fitted mask. Compatible models include the P500 full-face mask and P420, P430, P421 and P431 half masks. These cartridges do not use the threaded connection fitted to the P410. Confirm the hazard assessment, mask model and filter marking before issue. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for fitting, inspection, storage and replacement, and replace filters as a pair when required.

Portwest P971 ABEK1P3 Combination Filters bring gas and particle filtration together in one bayonet cartridge. This pack contains four individual filters, making two matched pairs for compatible Portwest twin-filter masks. The marking combines Class 1 ABEK gas filtration with P3 R particle filtration for use in an assessed respiratory-protection system. Supported facepieces include the P500 full-face mask and P420, P430, P421 and P431 half masks. Compatibility alone does not establish suitability for a chemical or process: confirm the contaminants, concentrations and filter change schedule before use. These filters do not fit the threaded P410 system. Follow the supplied fitting, inspection, storage and replacement instructions for both mask and cartridges.

Choose the Respirator Type

Disposable filtering facepieces and reusable masks have different maintenance and replacement arrangements. Compare the exact product marking, shape, straps and valve design. Do not select a mask from its appearance alone.

Check Filters and Fit

Use only approved filters for the specified mask connection. Select the filter type for the contaminant, and follow the required replacement schedule. Tight-fitting respirators require face-fit testing for the individual wearer and a seal check when fitted. Facial hair in the sealing area can prevent an effective seal.

FAQs

Are FFP1, FFP2 and FFP3 interchangeable?

No. They are different classifications; the risk assessment determines the required protection.

Does a valved dust mask protect against solvent vapour?

A valve is not a gas filter. Use equipment specifically selected for the contaminant.

Can these supply oxygen?

Filtering respirators do not supply oxygen and are unsuitable for oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
