Benefits of the 3M
Modular Approach
3M have developed a
comprehensive approach to
worker protection systems
based on comfortable-to-wear
modules.
Each system incorporates easyto-select
modules that can be
combined into dozens of system
configurations. Users can mix
and match modules as they
move from one environment to
another, or from one application
to the next. This provides plugand-play
adaptability for the
continually evolving demands of
your workplace.
