The one tool you just can’t afford to be without
March 20th 2009

Following extensive consultation with welders, diversified technology company, 3M, has introduced the new Speedglas 9100 welding shield that aims to be one of the safest and most ergonomically advanced personal protective systems to date. But most importantly, having listened to the people in the industry, 3M’s Speedglas shields are now the only ones on the market that have been designed specifically to welders’ own specifications.

You told us what you wanted

Keith Washbrook, 3M’s Sales Manager, explained, “No matter how protective a piece of equipment is, it will only be worn if it is comfortable. Dialogue and research with welders, finding out exactly what they need, coupled with the development of the product with international medical and anatomical experts has led to a revolutionary design that fundamentally changes how the welder wears the shield, providing improved fit, stability and balance.”
