AS/NZS Dust Masks

Our range includes 6 series approved to Australian/New Zealand Standards, AS/NZS 1716:2012. Multiple shapes are available such as economy moulded cup shape, fold flat shape, and preformed cup shape.

Among the many benefits offered by the respirators are: easily-adjustable straps; nose bridges which mould to the shape of the nose, defending against uncomfortable pinching and the need for constant readjustment; protection to help keep the product looking clean; an exhalation valve which aids with easy breathing even in uncomfortable environments; and a resilient design to ensure a longer lifespan.

These respiratory protective devices are majorly used in Cement, coal industries, construction, textile, wood working, processing, pharmaceutical foundries, fertilizers, glass, paper industries and so on.

According to AS/NZS 1716:2012
