Täysmaski

Täysmaski is a Finnish term that translates to "full mask" or "full-face mask." It generally refers to a type of mask that covers the entire face, from the forehead to below the chin. These masks are designed for various purposes, offering protection for the face and respiratory system.

In the context of safety and work environments, täysmaski can be used as respiratory protection. These masks often incorporate a filtration system to remove harmful particles or gases from the air, allowing the wearer to breathe safely in contaminated atmospheres. They are commonly employed in industries such as welding, chemical handling, and firefighting. The mask typically includes a sealed fit around the face to prevent unfiltered air from entering.

Beyond industrial applications, täysmaski can also refer to protective gear used in sports and recreational activities. For example, in ice hockey or American football, players wear helmets with full face cages or masks that protect their faces from impact. In some forms of combat sports or historical reenactments, full-face armor may be considered a type of täysmaski. The specific design and materials of a täysmaski vary greatly depending on its intended use and the level of protection required.
