CARBONDALE, PA March 10, 2021 – We are honored to announce that Gentex has earned Frost & Sullivan’s 2020 New Product Innovation Award in the North American PAPR protection equipment market for the PureFlo 3000 Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR).
“The PureFlo 3000 offers true value through high efficiency, durability, compatibility and improved safety” said Rahul Arora, Best Practices Research Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. “Optimized for maximum mobility, the series combines respiratory with head, face, eye, and optional hearing protection for use in light-to-medium duty environments. In addition, the series eliminates snag hazards because it has no belts, hoses, or cables, and its loose-fitting design ensures it can be safely used by individuals with beards or prescription eyeglasses without requiring extensive fit testing.”
