Comfort is key
March 1st 2009

Following consultation with welders, 3M has introduced the Speedglas 9100 welding shield that aims to be one of the safest and most ergonomically advanced personal protective systems to date.

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."
