Fit Testing

The performance of tight-fitting face pieces depends on achieving a good contact between the wearers’ skin and the face seal of the face piece. It is unlikely that one particular type, or size of Respiratory Protection Equipment (RPE) face piece, will fit everyone.

 Inadequate fit will significantly reduce the protection provided to the wearer. Any reduction in protection can put the RPE wearers’ life in danger or may lead to immediate or long-term ill health. It is also useful for checking that a wearer can put on a respirator face piece correctly.  

TFS are able give a qualitative fit test to all operatives and issue an employee record of passing fit test on a relevant mask.  
TFS can also train your company staff to do their own fit testing.
