FFP3 MASK REDESIGN<br />

Working with the NHS and Health Protection<br />

Scotland (HPS), our group created a ‘onesize<br />

fits all’ redesign of the FFP3 mask. A<br />

window was also incorporated into the mask,<br />

making it less intimidating to young children<br />

and improve communication, both through<br />

lip reading and through showing the facial<br />

expressions of the user.<br />

FINAL PRESENTATION PROTOTYPE<br />

Throughout the project, prototyping<br />

techniques such as foam mock-ups, vacuum<br />

forming and 3D printing were utilised to<br />

model potential mask shapes and present the<br />

potential designs to the client. Contamination<br />

tests were carried out to assess the viability<br />

of the forms.<br />
