September 2008 - 3M is pleased to confirm that 3M respiratory and eye protection continues to be available to the healthcare market via Southern Syringe Services, following a recent delisting by NHS Supply Chain. 

Respirators are a critical PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) component for the healthcare workforce, designed to reduce the potential exposure of the wearer to airborne hazardous contaminants. It is essential that workers are provided with PPE from a trusted and reliable brand.

3M 1800 Series Particulate Respirators protect the wearer from inhaling airborne particulates such as micro-organisms and aerosols carrying TB and flu viruses. The unvalved and shrouded valve respirators also act as splash resistant surgical masks by reducing patient contamination caused by exhaled organisms from healthcare professionals and protecting the wearer from blood and body fluids splashes.
