NIOSH-Approved Disposable Respirators

Safety equipment manufacturer Gateway Safety announces the addition of two new NIOSH-approved disposable respirators to its growing line of respiratory protection.

Safety equipment manufacturer Gateway Safety announces the addition of two new NIOSH-approved disposable respirators to its growing line of respiratory protection. The TruAir family, the company’s traditional-style line of respirators, is introducing an R95 and N100 product. R95 respirators filter at least 95 percent of particulate aerosols below the Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL), and N100 respirators provide 99.99 percent filtration of particulate aerosols free of oils below the PEL.

“The addition of the R95 and N100 products allows us to offer a very broad range of disposable particulate respiratory protection, while maintaining our market position as a value-priced safety manufacturer,” said Gateway Safety Vice President Matthew Love.

The TruAir respirator family now provides N95, N99, N100, R95 and P100 solutions. Though covering a variety of filtration levels, all TruAir products offer the same great features: a large, molded shell to reduce breathing resistance and minimize end user fatigue; an adjustable metal nosepiece for a tight seal around the nose; and latex-free, dual elastic head straps to help with a secure fit.

Gateway Safety has also added a two-pack baggie option for vending machine facilities or retail displays. This packaging option is currently available for the N95 products in the TruAir line as well as PeakFit, another popular respiratory family from Gateway Safety.
