Our 2021 advertising campaign is dedicated to safety in the workplace, which has always been BLS core business and now not just this.

What is a Fit Test and how does it work? A Fit Test is a leak test necessary to assess the effectiveness (and safety) of a respiratory protective device.

The webinar, held by BLS Iberia in collaboration with Formación en Seguridad Laboral, will cover the differences between different PPE and the importance of the Fit-Test.

What are the substances to be protected against? Dangerous chemical agents can induce more or less serious harmful effects (intoxication, occupational disease, death) on the body affected by their action.

Below is the calendar with the appointments of the new webinars, organized in collaboration with EPC Editore, in which we will discuss the risks that the respiratory tract runs in two specific areas of work.

What are activated carbons? What are they used for? Activated carbon can be in granular form (Granular activated carbon, GAC) or powdered form (Powdered activated carbon, PAC) and is characterised by a high absorption power: the presence of activated carbon in respiratory protective devices is essential to retain toxic gases or vapours and unpleasant odours, because it allows the user to work without exhaling them.

The 37th A+A Trade Fair for Occupational Safety and Health in Düsseldorf, Germany, ended a few days ago.

We are extremely proud to announce in partnership with Narvalo, an innovative start-up and spin-off of the Polytechnic University of Milan and POLIHUB, a new technology that will revolutionize the way you work.

Air is the resource used by each of us and its quality is our responsibility. If air is not visible, it does not mean that it is not there; on the contrary, it has a composition, a weight and a measure. Air is indispensable for survival and our health depends on its quality, but air is also a symbol of life and freedom, it exists, it surrounds us, it envelops us every day of our lives.

A+A Fair 2021 | We look forward to seeing you at our stand!

In BLS Group European team, which already saw Italy, Spain and the Netherlands lined up, France and Germany could not be missing. Opening two new offices BLS France in Neyron (FR) and BLS Germany in Mönchengladbach (DE), our presence in Europe is expanding, increasing our competitiveness on the global market.

“Everyone has the right to a safe job”: this is the message of our new adv campaign, with a double goal: raising awareness of the importance of a stable job, especially in this period of uncertainty caused by the health emergency, but also with regards to the safety and protection of each single worker in the workplace, the main focus of our company. Created in collaboration with Nicama&Kes agency, the multi-channel campaign has been on air since February with adv pages, contents on social networks and spaces in technical and sector newspapers and magazines. The campaign will also become international, reaching the main European countries, such as: France, with PIC magazine, Spain with Formacion en Seguridad Laboral magazine, Germany, with PPF Magazine, as well as on Health & Safety International Magazine's circuit.

Covid19 almost reached us - coming 60 kilometres from our company - on 21 February 2020. And from then on our life was changed forever. 2020 was, for us, a year on the frontline of the Covid19 emergency. During the Coronavirus pandemic, we changed from a “niche” company to being at the centre of a production system of essential goods for the protection of people's health: thanks to machines designed and engineered internally, and to the synergies with universities and market partners, we have always been able to have a competitive production, even with respect to China. All this without increasing the prices of our facemask, supplying hospitals, old people’s homes and law enforcement, supporting various associations with the donation of over 40 thousand masks.

BLS starts 2021 becoming part of the Fondazione Politecnico di Milano, and joining ASSOSISTEMA Confindustria (in the "Safety at work/Safety" section): “We are proud of being part of two of the most important trade associations that will support us in our path and allow us to be more and more positioned and planted into the territory, to continue to make the most of our research work and collaboration with local organizations, to build a safe future," comments Pier Paolo Zani, CEO of BLS.

Our Merry Christmas is a smile that comes out of a mask. From all of us, Best Wishes.

The calendar with our webinars dealing with safety in the workplace is as follows: Friday 27th of November, 11.45-12.45 Filtering facemasks: EN 149:2001+A1:2009 standard and related products with areas of use After a short presentation on BLS, an Italian company specialized in the production respiratory protection devices for 50 years, we will look in depth at the EN 149 standard concerning filtering facemasks and their areas of use, introducing BLS’ mono-use devices.

With a filtering capacity of more than 94% for FFP2 and more than 99% for FFP3, the new BLS 502 and BLS 503 masks are DPI without valves, CE certified according to European regulation 2016/425 and technical standard EN 149: 2001, able to protect users in the event of exposure to solid and/or liquid non-volatile particles (dust, fumes, mists) and to block the dispersion of viruses both incoming and outgoing. They are, in fact, sealed on the face and manufactured with a "welding” process, without seams and perforations on the fabric from which micro particles could pass, thus creating a barrier during exhaling, protecting the environment from the user of the mask. These masks are therefore ideal for use in the food & beverage and medical sectors, as well as in all work environments where contamination by the user must be avoided.

The first IoT anti-smog facemask that communicates with your smartphone. A new concept of urban mobility with greater attention and awareness on the air we breathe. This is the promise of Narvalo Urban Mask, the FFP3 anti-smog and anti virus facemask that communicates with a dedicated app, monitoring the quality of the air in the environment around us. Made entirely in Italy, the idea of this facemask was conceived at the Polytechnic University of Milan School of Design, developed under the PoliHub Innovation District & Start-up Accelerator’s Switch2Product programme, and realized in collaboration with BLS.

The calendar with our webinars dealing with safety in the workplace is as follows: Thursday 25th of June, 11.45-12.45 Respiratory Protection: BLS history and services After a short introduction on the presentation of BLS, the effects of exposure to contaminants harmful for our respiratory system will be described and, therefore, the need to use verified protection devices in compliance with all regulatory requirements and the importance of the correct use of such devices.
