Top Dust Masks
Protecting your workers from inhaling oil- and non-oil-based particulates is your top priority, and at EnviroSafetyProducts, we understand that. It's not just a matter of OSHA compliance; it's a matter of keeping your workplace safe so your workers stay healthy. Our inventory is packed with N100 and P100 respirators from the most trusted manufacturers, like 3M and Moldex at extremely affordable prices. You can get the protection your employees need and stay in compliance with OSHA standards without going over budget. If you're not sure what N100 or P100 respirator will work best in your workplace, call our expert customer service representatives at 800-637-6606 and they'll point you in the right direction.
N100 Masks
Not all protective respirator masks are the same. N100 masks are designed to protect the wearer from inhaling non-oil-based particulates, and according to OSHA standards, they must prevent 99.97 percent of those particulates from getting in when properly worn. They're ideal for grinding, sanding, mineral processing and other activities that do not involve oil-based hazards. People working on construction sites, in dry food processing areas and in agricultural processing stations can benefit from using N100 respirators. They block dangerous hazards like lead, cadmium, arsenic and methylenedianiline, commonly referred to as MDA. All the N100 masks in EnviroSafetyProducts' catalog are NIOSH-approved.
P100 Masks
P100 respirators are effective at blocking 99.97 percent of oil-based particulates when properly worn. They can protect wearers from exposure to dust, fumes and hazardous mists. P100 masks are ideal for construction environments, food processing plants, agricultural applications and pharmaceutical manufacturing. They also provide complete protection against non-oil-based particulates, like lead, arsenic and cadmium. P100 respirators are often used during welding, as well. Each P100 mask in our inventory meets OSHA and NIOSH standards.
N100 and P100 Masks for Protection against Avian Flu, Swine Flu and Other Diseases
The Centers for Disease Control tested N100 and P100 masks for their efficacy against avian flu, swine flu and other contagious diseases and found them to provide superior protection. Since N100 respirators and P100 respirators are capable of blocking the majority of airborne hazards, people often use them to prevent the spread of dangerous diseases.
Proper Use of N100 and P100 Respirators
Moldex and 3M respirators, like all other respirators, are ineffective if they aren't used properly. It's important to make sure each employee in your workplace is properly trained to use them for maximum effectiveness. OSHA requires employers to educate their workers on the proper use of all required PPE, so setting up a comprehensive training plan goes hand-in-hand with purchasing top-quality P100 and N100 respirators.
Employees need to know how to seal N100 and P100 masks to their faces, how to use masks in conjunction with other PPE like safety goggles and hearing protection, and how to adjust the masks for maximum comfort.
Which N100 Mask or P100 Mask is Right for Your Workplace?
Remember that N100 masks are not rated for protection against oil-based particulates, but P100 respirators are. If you're having a hard time choosing the right respirator for your workplace, just call 800-637-6606. Our customer service representatives are highly trained when it comes to respirators, and they can help you make the most cost-effective, responsible decision.

For a lot of job sites, safety masks and respirators are an essential piece of PPE. The lungs are delicate, important organs that are hard to repair if they get damaged, and inhaling the wrong chemical can have devastating effects on other areas of the body as well. Protect yourself from invisible airborne particles by investing in a respirator or mask suited to your job.
How Masks and Respirators Are Rated
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is a division of the CDC. They determine the ratings that allow people to choose the right mask for the job. Because government agencies determine ratings for masks, purchasing more expensive brand name N95 masks won’t necessarily provide “better” protection.
The ratings are based on a performance standard. Both the filter material and the relative quality of the mask fit are factored into whether a mask earns a particular rating. The challenge in determining this is smoke with 0.3 micron sized particles. How well does the filter media catch these little buggers, and does the mask fit seal off the path for unfiltered air?
Modern filter media uses a built-in static charge to attract and retain particles as they are pulled through. Some grades of filter can have this static charge ruined when in contact with oil mist. The letter in a mask’s name tells you whether or not the mask can resist oil: N masks are not oil resistant, P masks are oil proof, and R masks are oil resistant.
The number in a rating tells you the minimum amount of airborne challenge particles the mask protects against: an N95 mask keeps out at least 95% of particles but isn’t oil resistant, and a P100 mask is oil proof while protecting the wearer from at least 99.8% of particles.
Where to Use Your N95 Masks
N95 masks see a lot of use in industrial and construction applications where dust and liquids are a frequent hazard. They’re not suited for areas with lead or asbestos particles, gases, oil-based particulates, aerosols, or some particular healthcare applications: specialized filters, masks, and respirators are needed for those kinds of work. Face masks are meant to be single-use and disposed of after removal, and they’re not meant to be shared.
Can N95 Masks Protect Me from a Virus?
The emergence of Wuhan coronavirus (and SARS before that) has a lot of people concerned and stocking up on N95 masks. Viruses and bacteria are generally too small for a mask to protect against, though they are almost always in a droplet from a sneeze or cough. The mask will stop the droplets.
Please also remember that your eyes are another pathway, so glasses or goggles may be prudent. Another good thing about wearing a mask is that it prevents you from touching your nose and mouth! This is a prime route for the spread of viruses.
If you are the infected person, please avoid the masks that have an exhalation valve. They do breathe easier than those without, but they allow unfiltered air to escape the mask, and this may not be what you have in mind.
It’s also recommended that you wear a face mask if you have symptoms and are entering a healthcare facility for treatment, and healthcare professionals would likely benefit from wearing one as well. If you do wear a mask, choose one that can be fitted to your face, and use the same health and hygiene practices you would use to prevent the flu (stay home if you’re sick, wash your hands frequently and thoroughly, avoid close contact with others, and keep the disinfectant handy).
Choosing the right PPE for your workers and job can seem like a daunting prospect, but it’s a necessary one to make sure that everyone stays healthy on the job. PK Safety carries a variety of respirators, face masks, and filters for every worksite need from a variety of trusted brands.

If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace. - Thomas Paine
We have it in our power to begin the world over again. A situation, similar to the present, hath not happened since the days of Noah until now. The birthday of a new world is at hand, and a race of men, perhaps as numerous as all Europe contains, are to receive their portion of freedom from the events of a few months. The reflection is awful, and in this point of view, how trifling, how ridiculous, do the little paltry cavilings of a few weak or interested men appear, when weighed against the business of a world.

King James Version
36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.
38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
