Certification
The Forged Air respirator has been engineered to comply with the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) standard Z94.4.1:21 and the NIOSH N95 standard.
Forged Air Ltd. has begun the CSA and NIOSH certification process on the FA95 Half Respirator. As mandated by the governing bodies, certification must be completed on production product (not prototypes). Forged Air established its supply chain and launched the FA95 product and is currently undergoing the certification processes.
A P100 (magenta/pink in colour) rated filter is being developed and could be commercially available in Q4 2025 for oils, fumes/vapours, welding and/or spray painting.

More Info, CDCNIOSH certifies respirators to ensure they meet safety standards for filtering airborne hazards. Certified masks like N95s are tested for filtration, fit, and resistance. Labels show type (N, R, P) and efficiency (95, 99, 100). Only NIOSH-approved gear is OSHA-compliant.
