Premium evolution of the popular, proven 432 design

The Fisher & Paykel Forma Full Face CPAP Mask is the natural successor to the popular FlexiFit 432. While still based heavily on the 432's design, it has seen a number of tweaks to make it even more comfortable, durable and usable, further cementing its status as one of the best all-round masks available.

New T-shaped forehead support reduces pressure

The most obvious visual difference on the Forma mask from the 432 is that the forehead support is not a T-shaped bar, rather than a single pad. This helps gives the mask more support and stability, but also spreads the pressure over a wider area; improving comfort and reducing red marks. The support also auto-adjusts which makes fitting the mask easier.

The Forma retains the 432's unique cushion layout, where the cushion sits underneath the chin. This eliminates pressure put on the lower gums by regular full-face masks, and the discomfort that comes with it. The cushion design also gives it additional stability.

The diffusers has been redesigned to direct exhaled air away from the wearer, and at the same time ensure that exhalation noise is kept to a minimum. Fisher & Paykel's unique pull-cord quick-release system has been retained, which makes removing the mask quick and easy, especially in the dark. It also means you do not have to readjust the straps every time - just set and forget.

The new FlexiFoam cushions offers enhanced comfort and support. The two layers of the cushion work together to form an optimal seal; the inner foam layer adapts to your facial shape while the silicone outer layer provides a soft and comfortable seal. The frosted silicone ensure that it is both comfortable on the skin while also providing the security you need.

Glider Strap system gives greater freedom

The Glider Strap system allows the mask to change position and adjust its fit automatically, so if the mask were to come into contact with your pillow it does not instantly lose its seal or dig into your face. The Glider Strap will instead allow it to adjust its position and maintain a comfortable and secure fit.

The Flexifit 432 is among the most accessible and user-friendly masks available and its successor improves its reputation further. The Forma incorporates all of the great features of the 432, such as the Glider Strap and under-chin cushion, but adds extra comfort with the redesigned forehead support and diffuser. The dual-layer cushions gives maximum support and comfort and the frosted-silicone helps ensure a soft but secure seal.
