Beeswift P3 Fold Flat Valved Mask

Key Features of the Beeswift P3 Fold Flat Valved Mask

✔️ FFP3 NR V respirator certified to EN 149:2001+A1:2009 for high-efficiency protection from hazardous particulates.

✔️ Multi-layer filter media handles heavy particulate loading while maintaining comfortably low breathing resistance during work.

✔️ Integrated exhalation valve vents heat and moisture, improving comfort and reducing eyewear fogging in demanding conditions.

✔️ Contoured fold-flat design with adjustable nosepiece ensures dependable seal and easy storage in pockets or bags.

✔️ Smooth low-lint polypropylene outer feels comfortable and avoids fibre shedding, ideal for welding, fabrication and machining.

FFP3 Protection for High-Hazard Work

The Beeswift P3 Fold Flat Valved Mask delivers dependable respiratory protection in environments with high concentrations of hazardous particulates. Certified to EN 149:2001 + A1:2009 at FFP3 NR V performance, it offers high filtration efficiency against fine toxic dusts, metal fumes and water-based mists—making it well suited to hardwood machining, composite lay-up with glass fibres, plastics processing (non-PVC), welding and general metal fabrication. As a maintenance-free, non-reusable respirator designed for single-shift use, it combines robust protection with the convenience of a clean, ready-to-use mask straight from the pack.

Engineered Seal, Optimised Comfort

A carefully contoured profile helps the mask sit naturally on the face to promote a secure seal and excellent compatibility with spectacles and goggles. The adjustable nosepiece allows precise fitting across the bridge of the nose, supporting consistent performance and helping to minimise eyewear fogging. A smooth, low-lint polypropylene (PP) outer layer avoids loose fibres and enhances comfort during extended wear.

High-Efficiency Filtration with Low Resistance

Internally, multi-layer filter media are tuned for high particulate loading while maintaining low breathing resistance within the limits of the FFP3 class. This balance of protection and breathability supports productivity in demanding conditions, reducing strain on the wearer without compromising safety in high-exposure settings.

Integrated Exhalation Valve for Cooler Wear

For added comfort, the integrated exhalation valve efficiently vents warm, humid air from the mask cavity. By limiting heat build-up and moisture, it helps keep the microclimate behind the mask more comfortable during heavy work or in warm environments, supporting sustained use throughout the shift.

Fold-Flat Convenience for Site Efficiency

The fold-flat format stores neatly in pockets or tool bags without bulk, springs quickly into shape when required and supports hygienic handling prior to donning. Bringing together certified FFP3 performance, a secure ergonomic fit and site-ready practicality, the Beeswift P3 Fold Flat Valved Mask is a reliable choice for trades and industries where a disposable, valved respirator is the right solution.

Product Benefits

• FFP3 NR V Certification to EN 149: Provides high-level particulate filtration performance for fine toxic dusts, metal fumes and water-based mists, giving confidence for demanding tasks in construction, metalworking and manufacturing.
  
  

• Fold-Flat, Maintenance-Free Design: Collapses to a low-profile shape for hygienic storage and easy transport, then opens to full form on demand; single-shift disposable format eliminates filter changes and maintenance.
  
  

• Polypropylene Outer Layer with Smooth Lining: The PP shell provides a clean, low-lint surface that avoids loose fibres and enhances wearer comfort, supporting compliance over long shifts.
  
  

• Contour Profile for Eyewear Compatibility: The shaped body improves the facial fit around cheeks and nose, helping to maintain a consistent seal while reducing interference with glasses or goggles.
  
  

• Adjustable Nosepiece for Custom Fit: A malleable nose bridge allows quick, precise shaping to individual features, improving the seal at the nose and helping to minimise fogging of eyewear.
  
  

• Exhalation Valve for Cooler Breathing: The valve helps expel warm, moist exhaled air, reducing heat and humidity inside the mask cavity to support comfort during physically demanding work.
  
  

• Low Breathing Resistance Within Class: Efficient filter media is designed to deliver the required FFP3 performance while keeping breathing effort within standard limits, helping to reduce fatigue.
  
  

• Disposable, Single-Shift Convenience: The NR (non-reusable) rating supports consistent hygiene and performance by using a fresh respirator for each shift or task, as dictated by site risk assessments.

Typical Applications

• Woodworking and Joinery: Protection against fine hardwood dust generated by cutting, sanding and routing, where a P3 respirator is commonly required under risk assessment.
  
  

• Glass Fibre and Composites Work: Suitable for handling and trimming glass fibre mats and composite components, helping reduce exposure to airborne fibres and fine particulates.
  
  

• Plastics Processing (Non-PVC): Appropriate for machining or finishing non-PVC plastics that generate fine dust, supporting cleaner, safer working conditions.
  
  

• Metalworking and Welding: Helps protect against metal fumes and fine particulates produced during welding, grinding and polishing; not for gases or vapours—use appropriate controls where required.
  
  

• Construction, Refurbishment and Maintenance: A practical choice for tasks producing fine toxic dusts and water-based mists, such as cutting dense boards, drilling, or working in poorly ventilated areas.
  
  

• Facilities and Plant Operations: Useful for short-duration tasks in maintenance shops and on the factory floor where intermittent exposure to hazardous particulates is anticipated and a disposable P3 mask is preferred.
