Eye and Face Protection
At Tingstad, you'll find safety glasses, safety goggles, and face shields for work where the eyes and face need protection from hazards such as dust, flying particles, or splashes. We offer eye protection from brands including Zekler, Hellberg, 3M Peltor, and Portwest, suitable for use in construction, industry, workshops, and other working environments.
The type of protection you need depends on the task and the risks involved. Standard safety glasses, sealed safety goggles, and face shields are designed for different applications. The range also includes models with anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings, as well as accessories that can make protective equipment more practical and comfortable to use.

Which Eye and Face Protection Should I Choose?
Different tasks place different demands on eye protection. Grinding and machine work may involve a risk of flying particles, while working with chemicals can involve a risk of splashes. That's why it is important to choose protection based on the specific hazards you need to guard against.
Safety Glasses
Safety glasses are commonly used in construction, industry, and workshop environments. They are available in various designs with, for example, clear, grey, or yellow lenses.
Some models feature anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings, which can be beneficial when the glasses are worn for extended periods. Make sure the model provides the protection required for the task and fits comfortably without slipping.
Safety Goggles
Safety goggles provide a more enclosed fit around the eyes and offer more comprehensive protection than standard safety glasses. They may be suitable for work where there is a risk of dust, airborne particles, or liquid splashes.
Both ventilated and sealed models are available. The right choice depends on the working environment and the substances involved. Not all safety goggles are designed for protection against chemical splashes.
Face Shields and Face Protection
A face shield covers a larger portion of the face and can be used for tasks where both the face and eyes require protection from hazards such as splashes or flying particles.
Keep in mind that a face shield does not always replace safety glasses or safety goggles. Depending on the risk assessment, both may need to be worn together. Always check the face shield's certification and intended application.
Anti-Fog and Anti-Scratch Coatings
If you wear eye protection for most of the workday, lens properties are worth considering.
Anti-fog coatings can help reduce lens fogging, while anti-scratch coatings improve resistance to scratching. Clear, undamaged lenses are essential for maintaining good visibility while working.
Consider Fit and Protection Ratings
Eye and face protection should be selected based on the hazards present in the workplace. Check the product markings and verify which types of impacts or exposures the protection has been tested for.
Also make sure the protection fits correctly and works together with any safety helmet, respiratory protection, or other personal protective equipment. Eye protection that fits poorly or is used incorrectly may provide less protection than intended.
