Match the filter
to the hazard.
A particle filter captures particles. Gases and vapours need filters specified for those substances. A filter does not supply oxygen.

01 / PURPOSE
A world that moves.
A reason to prepare.
From the places we call home to the places we build tomorrow, respiratory readiness deserves better design. We’re developing a considered family of respiratory products, storage and training concepts—with people at the centre.
02 / THE COLLECTION
Five families. Clearly defined.A FAMILY.
NOT ONE ANSWER.
In developmentPassive escape hood — in development
FAYAMASK FRESH
Our lead passive escape-hood programme. Exploring more room for different head and hair profiles, intuitive retention and a clearer first-use experience.
- Development focus
- Canopy fit, crown and rear headroom, preconnected retention.
- Next evidence step
- OEM baseline information and physical evaluation samples.

Choose a family to explore its programme. This comparison explains categories; it does not recommend equipment for a particular hazard.
| Family | What it explores | Current stage | Keep in mind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Passive escape-hood design | In development | Fit, retention and protective performance need validation. | |
| Powered respiratory design | Bench research | A fan does not provide an independent oxygen supply. | |
| An independent breathing-air source | Future development | A separate architecture; no product duration established. | |
| Everyday particulate respiratory design | Concept development | Not presented as a fire-gas escape product. | |
| Storage, retrieval and familiarisation | In development | An inert trainer offers no protection. |
UNDERSTAND THE DESIGN
MORE THAN
THE OUTER HOOD.
The filter, the face interface and the retention system do different jobs. Here’s the principle behind the concept—and what we still need to prove.
Match the filter
The face interface
matters.
In the FRESH concept, the inner cup is intended to seal around the nose and mouth. The straps would hold it against the face; tightening the outer hood alone does not establish that seal.
Evaluate the
whole assembly.
The filter, connections, seals and exhalation path must work together. Leakage, breathing resistance and exhaled-air clearance need testing on the final assembly.
A seal we still need to prove.
Retention would load the cup-support structure. The yellow sleeves shown here are proposed strap guides; they are not a substitute for a validated attachment or face seal.
The canopy makes room.
Extra crown and rear volume could accommodate more head and hair profiles. Preconnected straps aim to reduce handling steps. Both ideas need diverse-user fit and timed handling trials.
What changes when you add power?
A powered filtering respirator uses a battery-driven blower to move air through its filters. For FAYAMASK Assist, airflow, heat, battery behaviour and breathing resistance after a power failure are separate bench-research questions. No runtime or safe fallback performance is established.
Independent Air is a different future programme, exploring an independent breathing-air source. Adding a fan to a filtering hood does not create that source.

03 / DESIGNED AROUND PEOPLE
EVERY DETAIL.
A HUMAN REASON.
A hood is only part of the story.
How it fits. How it feels.
How it is understood.
We’re investigating headroom, preconnected retention and simpler handling. Physical samples and independent testing must turn those design intentions into evidence.

THE DESIGN NOTEBOOK
From the whole
to the details.
Explore the assembly, the training companion and the information around the product. Each image shows a design idea, with the open questions alongside it.
A connected system.
The canopy, visor, inner cup and respiratory assembly have distinct roles. The respiratory core is shown as a single closed unit; its final configuration remains under review.
What this study leaves open
Regenerated appearance study. Connections, seals, retention and internal airflow are not fully represented. Separation is illustrative, not an assembly sequence or manufacturing drawing.
Clearly for practice.
A blue familiarisation companion, visibly separate from the yellow hood. The front marking says exactly what it is: training only, no protection.
What this study leaves open
Regenerated appearance study. Breathing comfort, fit, cleaning, durability and training equivalence require evaluation. No timed donning or unrestricted-breathing claim is made.
Clarity on the outside.
The approved primary identity, a clear category and unmistakable sample status. Information design belongs alongside the product design.
What this study leaves open
Original front-face artwork concept. Pack dimensions, barrier performance, seals, traceability and market-specific instructions still need definition. This is not released packaging.
04 / BEYOND THE PRODUCT
READINESS
HAS A PLACE.
Easy to locate.
Familiar before it matters.
FAYAMASK Ready
Storage, training and readiness support — in development.
We’re exploring equipment storage, clearly inert familiarisation trainers and readiness support. The illustration shows a two-pack layout idea; cabinet dimensions, pack capacity and retrieval have not been validated.
Practical ideas.
Physical tests next.
Access you can find and grasp
A retrieval ribbon and a wider side-access opening are proposals for handling trials. Actual sealed-pack dimensions, grip clearance and opening forces must inform the cabinet design.
Training kept unmistakably separate
A blue, clearly labelled inert trainer would support familiarisation without opening a protective unit. It provides no protection; training content and durability need their own review.
Simple records before smart claims
A QR or NFC identifier could link equipment to manually maintained inspection and renewal records. Scanning an identifier would not establish that a respirator is safe, in date or ready for use. No live monitoring service is offered here.
THE OFFER WE’RE BUILDING
From the device
to the support around it.
A focused FAYA programme, with room for carefully selected partner products and services as each offer is verified.
FRESH.
Training.
Ready.
Our near-term focus: the passive hood programme, an unmistakably inert training companion and practical storage.
Explore readiness ↗Appropriate products.
Clear provenance.
We’re evaluating a small range of respiratory and preparedness essentials, such as particulate RPE, first-aid kits, fire blankets and lighting.
Exact models and suppliers are not selected for sale. Partner products would retain their actual manufacturer identity.
People.
Records.
Familiarisation.
Readiness records, equipment renewal support and referral to competent respiratory fit-support providers are service directions under consideration.
05 / BUILT THROUGH CONVERSATION
DIFFERENT PLACES.
SHARED QUESTIONS.
Facilities teams, procurement buyers and individuals bring different questions. Start with your setting, country and evidence needs; we’ll prepare a conversation around them.
Plan around your people.

06 / FROM DESIGN TO EVIDENCE
Ambition in the design.
Discipline in the evidence.
FRESH leads our development focus. Illustrations help us discuss the idea; physical samples and product-specific evidence must establish what it can do.
Discuss a development partnership- 01 / Design studiesCurrent foundation
Make the idea understandable.
Concept illustrations, candidate materials and digital display geometry support discussion. They do not establish a functional protective prototype.
- 02 / SamplingNext evidence needed
Put real parts on the bench.
Obtain documented OEM baselines and evaluation samples. Measure display-part fit separately from respiratory performance.
- 03 / Engineering and testingRequired before release
Evaluate the complete system.
Resolve materials, joints and seals; test fit, handling, leakage, breathing resistance and thermal behaviour on the actual configuration.
- 04 / Product releaseNot yet available
Let evidence define the offer.
Establish conformity assessment, instructions, traceability, production controls and aftercare before making protective claims or taking orders.
A development sequence, not a completion forecast. Assist needs its own powered-system engineering and assessment. The inert trainer and storage enclosure require separate evaluation.
BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE
Useful answers.
Clear expectations.
Understanding the category is the first step. Product selection needs evidence specific to the device, the user and the intended environment.
Can I buy or order a sample now?
The owned products shown here are in development and are not available to order through this site. You can discuss the programme or a potential partnership; an enquiry is not a purchase or sample reservation.
Are all of these masks for the same hazards?
No. Particulate, passive escape, powered and independent-air systems are different categories. A filtering respirator does not supply oxygen. Suitability must be established for the exact equipment and intended use.
Read HSE guidance on respiratory protective equipment ↗What are you doing about different heads and hairstyles?
Headroom at the crown and rear, canopy fit and preconnected retention are design priorities. They need trials with a diverse group of users. More space alone does not prove a face seal, and we do not claim universal fit.
What does the blue training hood do?
It illustrates an inert familiarisation trainer: no protection. Its purpose would be to support reviewed training before an emergency, with clear separation from protective equipment.
What should an organisation include in an enquiry?
Your country, setting, intended users, procurement questions and the support you want to explore. You do not need to share confidential site plans or personal health information. We do not calculate an equipment plan automatically.
Does the website send or save my enquiry?
No. It prepares an email locally for you to review, edit and send from your own email service. You can also copy the text. Opening your email app does not confirm delivery.
