The new Moldex gas cartridge: lower breathing resistance, greater breathing comfort and excellent protection
Our gas cartridge was already a frontrunner in terms of breathing resistance. Thanks to this upgrade, it is now noticeably lower, which has further improved breathing comfort significantly. With this optimisation, we have taken a clear lead – whilst maintaining the same reliable protection! Even the breathing resistance of a combination gas and particulate filter is now as low as that of a Moldex FFP mask.
We have incorporated our many years of experience in mould making, aerodynamics and filter development into the optimisation process. Improved airflow, a further significant reduction in breathing resistance and a slightly larger diameter combined with a lower profile are the key features of our new second-generation gas cartridge. Volume and weight remain the same — comfort is enhanced.
An optimisation that sets new standards!
For you, this means: easier breathing, a more natural breathing experience and significantly greater comfort throughout the entire period of use. This improvement is particularly noticeable during prolonged periods of wear or when engaging in physically demanding activities.
