HISTORY MISSION AND INTERNATIONALIZATION OWN PRODUCTION

HISTORY BLS starts its activity in Milan in 1970 by setting up its first production laboratories and offices. Initially production was concentrated on disposable cup shaped masks. Year after year, the company focused the quality of its products, shaped the range and increased the production potential introducing highly automated processes constantly followed by a team of experts. BLS internally develops the projects of the machinery of its production lines. BLS takes over Tecnopro in 2003, an Italian manufacturer of full face masks and half masks with twenty years of experience in the industry....

PROTECTION FROM DUST, MIST AND FUMES DUSTS are formed when a solid material is decomposed into tiny fragments. MISTS are tiny droplets that are formed from liquid materials through condensation and atomization processes. FUMES are formed when a solid material (e.g.: a metal) is vaporized through high temperature. The vapour cools quickly and condenses into extremely fine particles. The term PARTICULATE commonly identifies the collection of these solid particles in the air (dust, fumes, mist). There are two families of products for protection against particulates: In reference to the protection...

FILTERING FACEPIECES AND THE NEW HARMONISED STANDARD EN 149:2001+A1:2009 The new harmonized European standard EN 149:2001+A1:2009 came into force in 2009 replacing the previous standard EN 149:2001. A1:2009 is the amendment that contains changes and additions to the European standard. EN 149:2001, was adopted by the CEN (European Committee for Standardization) and is binding for all Member States of the EU. WHAT CHANGES 1) DISPOSABLE AND REUSABLE DEVICES Two new classifications have been established in the new standard relating to the product use: - DISPOSABLE DEVICE, which can be used continuously...

CUP SHAPED FILTERING FACEPIECES As part of maintenance-free breathing apparatus or filtering facepieces, BLS has expressed the increasingly felt needs by the users in terms of: • INCREASE OF THE FILTERING EFFICIENCY; • REDUCTION OF THE BREATHING RESISTANCE; • COMFORT DURING USE. Dust Calcium carbonate, magnesium, cement, softwood Harness: welded elastics Sealing edge: upper Noseclip: internal Dust in warm/humid environments Calcium carbonate, magnesium, cement, softwood Harness: welded elastics Sealing edge: upper Noseclip: internal Exhalation valve Dust in warm/humid environments Fibre glass,...

with carbon layer In industrial production, special welding and cleaning operations are performed with the use of solvents and powder coatings. BLS has developed a range of breathing equipment designed for these specific needs, inserting a carbon layer inside the filtering facepieces to retain the noxious and unpleasant odours of both organic and acids gases and vapours present in low concentration (less than the TLV). Article Dust Calcium carbonate, magnesium, cement, softwood, in the presence of unpleasant odours Harness: elastics Sealing edge: upper Noseclip: internal Carbon layer for: organic...

technical details The total sealing edge, used in some models, has small holes that reduce the humidity inside the PPE and thereby increase the comfort for the wearer. The greater amount of fabric and the greater concavity of the mask offer longer duration of the PPE and lower breathing resistance. To avoid the possible contamination of the product (as required for example by some pharmaceutical and food industries) the internal noseclip is placed between two layers of fabric so to reduce as much as possible the metal parts of the PPE. A considerable distance between the inner surface of the...
