1. Detect 2. Select 3. Protect
We believe welders deserve to  
feel safe and comfortable during 
their workday.
Clean air is critical to employee safety, but you 
won't know if you have appropriate protection 
without monitoring and understanding what's 
in your air.
Dierent welding methods and environments 
requires dierent levels of protection – let us 
help you on the path to safety
Establishing a thorough respiratory 
protection program requires both 
selecting the correct respirators 
and a plan to change out your gas/
vapor cartridges. 
Selecting the welding PPE include various 
parameters  such as protection, comfort and 
performance. Each situation and welding 
environment have their unique challenges
It doesn’t matter how good your protective 
equipment is if nobody uses it. We make 
helmets that are comfortable, good-looking, 
and promote welders’ performance.
Risk remains constant. You’ll need 
a consistent program that can also 
adapt to new challenges, and we 
want to help you establish one.
We've developed tools and guidelines to help 
you maintain your equipment and make the 
most out of it.
Follow the path to protection
Do you, as a welder, 
know what’s in your air?
