The new products complement the company’s P3 dust filters on the JSP Halfmask Press to Check system.

The latest filters protect against  organic vapours from naturally-occurring chemicals such as those from resins, woods, fibres, white spirit, weed killer and solvents such as xylene.

The multi-gas filter eliminates vapours from chlorine, brick acid, MDF machine-tooling and contaminated earth.

The easy-to-use system enables the wearer to determine whether a correct face-fit has been achieved every single time they put on their Force 8 half-mask without disturbing the fit to the face.

Matthew Judson, JSP’s Director of Respiratory Protection, said: “These new combination filters are an excellent addition to our Press to Check system.

“We have taken the award-winning concept of a half-mask with a ready-to-use on-board check facility and added to it gas vapour filtering, so covering a multitude of possible hazards.”
