The Laboratory Respiratory Protection category includes the instruments, accessories and consumables needed to reduce exposure to chemical, biological, particulate, thermal and physical hazards during routine work and emergency response. Selecting them as part of a complete workflow helps prevent compatibility problems that are easy to miss when individual items are considered separately. A practical point for this category is that 3M is world-renowned for its Cool Flow™ valve technology and high-efficiency filter media, ensuring that laboratory masks remain comfortable and cool during extended periods of use.
PPE and safety products must match the identified hazard, because general-purpose protection may be unsuitable for a specific chemical, exposure route or task. The practical choice therefore depends on material compatibility, fit and coverage, inspection requirements, and replacement and storage, as well as how frequently the product will be used and how it connects with the rest of the procedure.
Risk assessment comes first, followed by selection of suitable engineering controls, PPE, emergency equipment, inspection routines and replacement intervals. Looking at the full sequence makes it easier to identify the correct accessories and consumables before the equipment is put into service in research, clinical, education, manufacturing, field and service laboratories. As part of the Laboratory Safety & PPE range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Respiratory Protection range
Our collection covers the main product groups used to reduce exposure to chemical, biological, particulate, thermal and physical hazards during routine work and emergency response, from full face respirators through to face masks.
Full-Face Respirators for Labs
The Full-Face Respirators for Labs range covers equipment and consumables used to reduce exposure to chemical, biological, particulate, thermal and physical hazards during routine work and emergency response. While a half mask only covers the nose and mouth, a full face mask protects the entire face, including the eyes, providing a higher protection factor and shielding against chemical splashes and eye irritants.
Half-Mask Respirators for Labs
The Half-Mask Respirators for Labs range covers equipment and consumables used to reduce exposure to chemical, biological, particulate, thermal and physical hazards during routine work and emergency response. Start with the application and sample, then compare inspection requirements, replacement and storage, identified hazard, and protection rating or intended use.
Laboratory Face Masks
The Laboratory Face Masks range includes instruments, accessories and consumables used to reduce exposure to chemical, biological, particulate, thermal and physical hazards during routine work and emergency response. The Profile Plus series from Unigloves uses high-quality fleece material that is designed to be soft on the skin, reducing irritation during long shifts while maintaining effective filtration.
Featured brands
Kimberly-Clark is known for low-lint wipes, protective apparel and workplace hygiene consumables, AS ONE is known for cleanroom supplies, compact laboratory equipment and general consumables, and LLG Labware is known for practical laboratory consumables, accessories and routine bench supplies. Compare each BRAND by material compatibility, fit and coverage, inspection requirements, and replacement and storage, and check what is included with the product so the complete setup is clear before ordering.
