Face fit is a process which ensures a person is fitted correctly to a

tight-fitting mask. It involves using a hood which is placed over the

persons head, this hood is then filled with a harmless substance called Bittrex or Saccharin.

If the person can taste the substance while conducting a series of

exercises the mask does not fit.

Each session takes approximately 25-30 minutes from start to finish.

We all have different shaped faces; this means that one mask doesn’t fit everybody.

Face fit is a method which is used to ensure a mask is suitable for a person.

We can provide training for face fit testing or carry out the testing ourselves. View our factsheet on face fit testing here or get in contact for more information.
