The International Agency for Research on Cancer’s re-classification of welding fume as a Class 1 carcinogen has emphasized the health risks welders face. Previously classified as “possibly carcinogenic to humans,” welders should take every precaution possible to protect their health.

Optrel Inc., the global innovator of auto-darkening filter technology for welding helmets, has introduced the new e3000, a NIOSH-approved powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) that optimizes welder uptime while minimizing distractions. Designed with welders working in extreme conditions in mind, the e3000 improves personal comfort and enhances productivity.
