Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) systems are essential for protecting workers in environments with airborne hazards such as dust, fumes, and chemical vapours. This category includes a wide range of protective hoods, hoodtops, helmets, and respirator hoses that, when paired with a compatible PAPR unit, deliver a continuous flow of filtered air to the wearer. These components are designed to meet strict safety standards, helping workplaces across New Zealand stay compliant with PPE regulations.
Each respirator hood or hoodtop offers a different level of coverage to suit a variety of tasks and hazard conditions. Some are suited for light-duty work such as dust protection, while others are built for higher-risk applications involving chemical exposure or mechanical hazards. Respirator hoses—available in lightweight, flexible, or heavy-duty configurations—serve as the vital connection between the headtop and the PAPR, ensuring safe and uninterrupted airflow.
