Why 3M Disposable Respirators?
At 3M, we’ve been developing disposable respirators with Advanced Electrostatic Media (AEM). Our unique manufacturing process injects a high level of electrostatic charge into microfibers arranged in an open formation that allow for the greater passage of air through the media.
Breathability is the #1 consideration when choosing a disposable respirator -
